Revolutions per Minute (Skid Row album)
Revolutions per Minute is the fifth full-length studio album by Skid Row, released on October 24, 2006. It is the band's first and only release with drummer Dave Gara.
Michael Wagener temporarily reunited with Skid Row and became their producer for this album. It was 15 years since he co-produced the band's 1991 second album Slave to the Grind.
The album received some negative reviews and only charted in Japan at #266[1]
"Shut Up Baby, I Love You" was released as a single[2] and "Strength" is a cover song originally performed by The Alarm.
Critical reception
The album received mostly negative reviews. Greg Prato of Allmusic gave it a rating of two and a half out of five stars, and said that the album sounded extremely similar to earlier releases—"you get the same angry-yet-melodic riff rockers that you long ago came to expect from the group [...] Revolutions Per Minute is just what you'd expect from Skid Row."[3]
