Although I don't particularly like the band Motley Crue, I really appreciate Mr. Mars' guitar playing. I am totally in love with the way he plays the instrument. For me it's that he carries the whole band with his incredible confidence. I sometimes like to listen to Dr. Feelgood, Kickstart, Wild Side and a few others.@@MichaelNoland-TheBottomLine

Hey Michael I subscribed. I gotta say thank you very much for showing what's left of humanity out there and not being a hater. I am a really die hard Crue fan and I do appreciate the honesty. Unlike other review channels that are not serious (objective) on their work, you show you are to be valued as a reviewer. I appreciate your work and thanks for covering the Crue!

I gave the song a listen. I didn't care for it. "If I Die Tomorrow" was probably the last song they put out that I actually liked.

Hey Michael...your despise of Motley Crue humors me LOL. I listened to the new song just now and definitely can tell the John 5 influence here as Rob Zombie and even Godsmack feel to it. I will need to track down Micks album. Keep the good work coming ....and don't forget to add Molly Hatchet to your list of no OGs but still tour.

"When they first came out, I kinda liked their records." Honest street. Music critics loathed Motley Crue when they first came out. Only recently, due to longevity, have they received any critic love. Mars was the musical heart of the band. Vince Neil...didn't he delete someone via negligent driving? Motley Crue is a strip club hair band that is a millimeter better than "Trixter" and "Faster Pussycat", imo. You need to do better, Motley Crue, imo.

I kind of like music that doesn’t make you think, just have fun. Although I also think that lip syncing live is verboten

Dont you think this is all just part of the motley story. Even bad press is good press. How many people are listening to mics new stuff. Welcome to the show people.

Weird cartoon Motley came up with. The Nightmare Before Christmas is way better. Nickelodeon crowd might dig it tho

Brutal

I never got into them at all back then, I was too laser focused on my fav band VanHalen to be bothered with their nonsense they were peddling at the time. And it appears they're still hauling around the wagon full of their snake oil. Jeez boys an EP, thats all ya got. Cant see this John putting in his tenure with the guys either. Great episode Michael, cheers

When you think about it no band like Mötley Crüe were geniuses musically. They were products of their time of what was popular in those years just like the 60s bands were popular and 70s bands were popular and marketed for their time period. I believe the term artist is used much to loosely today.

LOL John! Drugs of War! Now why didn’t I think of that line?❤❤❤

Crue had a dozen songs for listening to in the gym or while driving. I’ll say the same for earlier Dee Snyder and Twisted Sister.

The common thread seems to be that it's people like you and me - people who weren't really fans to begin with - that are reasonably OK with this tune. My profile is almost the same as you - not much of a fan of the people in the band or their music, other than a few things here and there. As such, I think "Dogs of War" is decent. The vaguely Metallica-like riffs are pummeling; the chorus hook with its odd chord change of d minor to f minor coupled with a rising melody is super catchy; the ominous verse is creepy and moody like good 90s alt-rock. Plus, there's lots of production ear candy, like the keyboard hook near the end of the song. I think it's all really well done. The only thing I would say is they should have tightened up the lyrics a bit, and then this would have risen from a 7.5 to possibly an 8 in my book. Everything you said is pretty much in synch with my thoughts.

Their first 2 & Dr. Feel Good albums are the albums I’ve got! Haven’t heard the tune yet, so I’ll check it out! PEACE!

I have no problem with him personally, But, He's been the worst "replacement " member of every band he's been in to date!! Sure, He's a shredder, but when was the last time you hummed an Yngwie Malmsteen song? EXACTLY!!! John 5 is the "Cousin Oliver" of every band he's stepped into. They bring him in on the 6th season to add a new dynamic, when ratings are down, but it's way too late in the game and the general public just doesn't care. He did that with Marilyn Manson, Rob Zombie and when Rob Halford tried to be Nine Inch Nails. Just because you can "shred", doesn't mean you can actually write a tune to save your life!!!

As long as I’m piling on the comments, let’s go down a rock guitarist rabbit hole. I put players like John 5, Yngwie Malmsteen, and Joe Bonanassa all in the same category. They have totally different playing styles and they’re considered more or less different genres, but they all lack a distinct personality with their playing. Don’t get it twisted, I consider all three of those guys “virtuosos” on the guitar. They just lack that certain “something” when it comes to their soloing and riffs. Those hummable, singable, memorable guitar solos. This is why my favorite players are guys like Eliot Easton of the Cars, Gary Richrath of REO Speedwagon, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Gary Rossington and Allen Collins, Peter Frampton, Richie Blackmore, Mick Taylor, Tom Scholz, Brian May, etc. These guys are all very different players in tone, technique, melody, etc; but they are the types of guitarists that you can immediately identify even when you remove the rest of the band.

It's pretty bad. I heard rumors that the album was generated by AI, and this literally sounds as if someone prompted AI to make a Motley Crue song. It hits all the generic Crue tropes.

They may have tried, but I doubt that song does anything for old or new fans. It doesn't move the needle one way or the other. But they certainly do manage to irritate a big chunk their old fans about the way went about Mick Mars' dismissal from the organization, for the sake of full blown greed, coming primarily from the guy who admittedly didn't (because he couldn't) play the bass on their 80s records. Simply, that's why all the hate. Because of that man's grand hypocrisy and shameless lying. So go ahead and keep going Milly Crue. Who cares?
