2 stars I have to agree with Chris above. I'm also a longtime Styx fan since I was in elementary school in the 70's. The songs on Big Bang Theory are well-done, but you really have to have an appreciation of Styx as a fan to really enjoy the album. Otherwise, all you have are slick renditons of classic tracks that don't really have too much that's special about them. There are some bright spots in there such as JY's work on "Locomotove Breath" and "it don't make sense". But I'm a rabid JY fan so I just enjoy anything that has that JY sound. Dennis' positive contribution to the "soul" of the styx sound (other than his unique voice) pretty much ran out in the late 70's. I am glad that Styx lives on without him. BTW, the reference to Pontius Pilate refers to the role that Dennis De Young played in the touring production of Jesus Christ Superstar in the 90's.
