"On the whole, For The Love Of Metal is exactly what it says on the tin; a record produced by a pairing with a great deal of love and respect for the genre, whilst also proving to the wider community the versatility of a man still best known to most for cranking out hair-metal anthems in the 80s. And whilst there's hardly anything groundbreaking to be found here, and not everything on the record seems to fully work, those moments that do are certainly more than enough to elevate this curious team-up from novelty to a fairly solid release. If this is the kind of direction that Dee Snider chooses to continue down in the future, things are looking pretty bright".
