Stylish, yes; but, variations on a theme and just a paycheck.

Dude...it sounded nothing like their 80's stuff.
It's raw and rootsy like their 70's stuff. But the song is a rap song from the 1990's.
And if that drum beat on the intro with the complete turnaround of the downbeat isn't fucking bad ass as hell...then you are just not paying attention.
And the guitar tones Billy is using to play age old blues licks is fucking refreshing as hell.
Sounds to me like a band who came into the studio with Rick Rubin and he pulled out the best in them. Sounds like they came in with something to prove and succeeded.
