Independent review

The second album of the supergroup Chickenfoot (Hagar/Satriani/Anthony/Smith) starts off joyfully and rather uninterestingly. However, you immediately realize that everything is no longer as meaningless as it was on the first creation. It's as if a certain hippie and beach spirit is wandering in this music (mostly thanks to Hagar). And then the guys start rocking out in earnest on Lighten up. Three and a half letters is a harrowing narrative. The Big foot riff is an analogue of Get it up on the first album. And Come closer is just excellent. You won't be allowed to get bored until the end of the album. And in Something going wrong, Satriani unexpectedly channels Santana. Which is quite curious. It's strange that the project ended just when the guys found their groove. I think the third album would have been a fully formed persona. By the way, the second album is called the third. A joke? There was another option, Chickenfoot IV, if you must know...
