About this Artist

Editorial Reviews

Supergroups are often motley groups seemingly formed at the end of an after-concert party but few are quite as strange as Chickenfoot, an endeavor featuring Van Halen's Sammy Hagar and Michael Anthony, guitar legend Joe Satriani, and drummer Chad Smith from the Red Hot Chili Peppers. These four musicians are tied together by their many years playing in the arena rock trenches, a circuit that doesn't necessarily yield common musical ground although it does lend its veterans a certain knack for pleasing crowds. This eagerness is evident on the band's eponymous 2009 debut, which should come as no surprise seeing that Sammy Hagar has never seen a party he couldn't rock, but this mentality doesn't quite jibe with Satriani's immaculate, tightly controlled playing. Satch always seems to want to burst out but can't help leaning on precision, a problem that's the polar opposite to Hagar's let-it-all-hang-out philosophy, and this dichotomy is mirrored in the rhythm section, where Anthony's chugging bass doesn't quite fill the gaps Smith leaves. All this means is that Chickenfoot's big picture is roughly in place but the pieces don't quite fit. Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide

One track is excellent, the rest is disappointing.by Anonymous

September 20, 2009: Hagar and Anthony are the Big Names behind this act. Aside from the track titled "Oh Yea" which has received large amounts of commercial air time, I find the rest of the CD to be much less than expected. This effort in my opinion is just alot of sound bending and a blending of not well defined musical themes. There appears to be alot of controlled improvisation .. although each musician definitely has the chops to perform at this level. Unless a listener is looking for a filler in their music library, I wouldn't recommend this one as a "Must purchase."

Not worth buying. A disappointment.by njprincess222

August 01, 2009: Having been an avid Van Halen fan for 25 years, I hoped it would sound like a "new" Van Halen album with 1/2 the band formerly from Van Halen. It was NOT at all. No songs really struck me as awesome. There were no real rock ballads, like When It's Love, for example. It was real hard core. I was disappointed.
