| | Godsmack: The Other Side - PopMatters Music Review |
 | | Over the years, Godsmack have also turned into a very good live act, the intensity of their music working well in a live setting, and Erna really showing he's one of the better hard rock frontmen out there. |
 | | Godsmack are so earnest, in fact, that they want to prove they're not just another dumb loud rock band, so they've released a new seven-track, 30-minute CD of acoustic songs, which, not so coincidentally, is what Alice in Chains did on their terrific Jar of Flies EP back 10 years ago. |
 | | On this CD, though, Godsmack means well, their hearts are in the right places, and it's good of them to try to give their fans a temporary change from the usual fare, but everyone knows that this band is at their best when they're simply a good Big Dumb Rock Band. |
