I just finished Kid Rock’s new release, Rock N Roll Jesus, and I have to say it was less than revelational.  The air of corniness aside, this album felt as though it were a frankensteinian collection all the rock standards that the kid grew up listening to on the radio.  One song in particular kept making me think of “werewolf drinking a pina colada at Trader Vic’s, and his hair was perfect!”  Aside from this, at times the songs feel forced, as though the artist was trying to present something more mature, more timeless, but failed in the attempt.   As a whole, the album was listenable, but definitely nothing to preach about.
