You misspelled "Under the Blade".
Every album was weaker than the one before, maybe except COAP being a bit better than Stay Hungry.

7.5/8 outta 10 Overall I would agree but in her age group, she's easily a 9. Started university in 1984, so she must be 60 or more now. (It's on her linkedin profile, it's open and I was curious about her age) If she’s really 60, very hot. I would have guess 45ish That's one of the reasons I checke...

A massive disappointment. Imagine following up LAFS with something comparable... they could have become a massive band. Instead, this album pretty much killed their upward ascent and they never recovered. You may have forgotten, I sure wish I did, but later they released a little single called &quo...

He's talking about all this stuff, but that was yesterday. What's Lou singing lately? I remember Lou doing a pretty big-budget Shadow King project that was mostly turgeo-id. One good song only, and that was the little acoustic piece done by Viv Campbell. Shadow King is possibly the worst "supe...

Was just watching their performance in Dortmund '83 (the best single day line up of metal bands ever assembled) Donington 1988 would like a word with you. Maiden, Kiss, DLR, Megadeth, GNR and Helloween was a solid line-up. You could argue Kiss vs Roth or Priest vs Ozzy but Krokus and Quiet Riot got...

He might be an E lister.

Yeah he would at best open for d-listers like Shotgun Messiah or Danger Danger.

Mustaine didn't screw up, he intentionally replaced 70s British things like UDA, MPLA and IRA with things late 80s Americans could relate to - can't remember but wasn't it FDA, CIA and USA? Or was that n Mötley version?

Iron Maiden cut the first and last verse off Skyhook's Women in Uniform and made two puzzling changes to the lyrics. First, replacing "Flying to my hometown on a 747" with "Comin' back to London on a 747" which makes perfect sense and if they chose to play it live it could have s...

Seems like most of the early "hair bands" (Quiet Riot, Keel, Rough Cutt, Stryper, Black N Blue, Y&T, Twisted Sister, etc,) the majority of their catalogs are forgettable filler. I like early Stryper and Keel but basically you're right. Ratt and Mötley were far ahead of the rest in 83-...

If QR could write songs they would be Keel. Or Twisted Sister.

For my ears - “Don’t Go Away Mad (Just Go Away)”. How fortuitous. When I heard the song after that ("Time for Change") I should have known it was over. It wasn't the last good song, but the last great song. Primal Scream, Angela, Enslaved and SoLA are good songs. DGAM, SATD, Wild Side and...

Nikki just refuses to give us the classic Crue sound. Anything from 81-91 would be great, but he just won’t do it… They tried to go back to the old sound with New Tattoo and that sucked too. Some of those riffs even were from the Dr. Feelgood era. I'm not sure what people were expecting with the ly...

Electric Angels- both albums
Pretty Maids - RH&H and Future World
Electric Boys - Groovus Maximus
Icon - s/t and Night of the Crime
Heavens Edge - s/t
Lillan Axe - s/t and Love + War

Shotgun Messiah- s/t
Vain - All Those Strangers

Before the arrival of Spotify and the like, I’d read about these two early tracks, Toast of the Town, and some other, fans raved about the quality of the songs , and lamented the fact they had never been released. Spotify comes, and bonus tracks appear, and I didn’t like either of them. I take it y...

The Steinman diaries about it are amazing - to hear him tell it, they're an bunch of brainless, talentless Brummies who were nothing more than Mutt's puppets. Steinman may be correct… Has any other Mutt produced band described him as a taskmaster? AC DC? The Cars? He only seemed to need to whip DL ...

Was it her who asked Anelmo if he is gay?

A mythology of drugged out dudes in a van writing Too Fast For Love or Welcome to the Jungle. Whatever. Like anything the truth is somewhere in the middle. I get your point but those aren't good examples as they were both played live before the bands got signed. Mötley even self released their debu...

Kristiane Backer was the 1st Headbangers ball Europe presenter I remember. Preferred her to Warwick. Backer was hotter and didn't focus so much on bands that were her friends... or had her husband in them. If you just watched HBB Europe, you'd think The Almighty was on Guns/Mötley's level while in ...

He didn’t host the Headbanger’s Ball in Europe, Vanessa Warwick did, and the show was as big over here. It was all about the bands/music at the time. Might be good for you to know ”over there”. If it hadn’t been Riki, someone else would have been the host and presented the videos in MTV’s prime. Kr...

The lead singers (soulless) Euro-Metal vocal style is beyond annoying, and the reason why I could not get into Lion. Funny, I've seen this mentioned several times over the years. I always felt like Kal Swan was a breath of fresh air when everyone was trying to be a high pitched screamer. Not annoyi...

Such a hassle - not worth time or effort
Definitely life scam- avoid it

Dating can be fun. The scam is getting married and/or living together. No need to go there.

I'll take stupid lyrics over stupid rockers trying to be "deep"......i.e. Skid Row "Quicksand Jesus"...... yeah... or Kiss on most of Carnival of Souls. "Heartless, rich and greedy watch the churches rape the needy" would be a literal, stupid lyric even if it didn't co...

I think both David Lee Roth and Eddie Van Halen are/were introverted. Very interested to see what Alex writes about Ed in his book, but Roth all but admitted himself that he is an introvert in his book. Never had a steady group of friends after 3rd grade or so, loves reading as an activity, explores...

As long as the soundtrack has ten Frankensteined Van Halen songs from the 1970s, I'm in. Throw in a 1985 rehearsal with Roth too.

Wasn't Boyz are Gonna Rock already on Lick it Up as On the Eight Day?? Would have been a bit weird to record it again on the follow up album. I know they also tried Back on the Streets and for some unimaginable reason did not put it on Lick it Up....I've also heard supposedly Lick it Up era demos o...

Some good songs and great playing let down by the mix sounding like shit, and not enough variety in the tunes. A bunch of them are pretty much just the same song. Never, Never Know Why, Lightning Strikes, Fool Like You … how many mid tempo rockers did they need? Yeah, they didn't even try there. So...
