Anyone else dig this album? just revisited it and thought i was going to cringe but damn it sounds great.
 
I had it on yesterday. Bach is still one of my favorite vocalists.
 
I've always loved that album!! Great songs, killer vocals, killer guitar playing, raw with awesome emotion and melodies! Came out right before grunge took over....never got the recognition it deserved!! :rock:
 
Yeah, Slave is awesome. Have to say I'm enjoying their most recent EP too..
 
It's a classic. Just a great album in all respects....playing, tones, songs, vocals, all of it. That whole 1989-92 last-gasp era of hard rock/metal contained some of the best recorded work of many of those bands.....Skid Row,Lynch Mob,Badlands,Don Dokken,etc.
 
I especially dig the title track. Has definitely some cool THRASH vibe !!!!
 
Dug mine out a few weeks ago - it holds up extremely well!
Some great riffs, angry/aggressive guitar tones, and Bach.. well the boy has some pipes.
 
yeah Bach sounded good before his vox got too shredded up on the following album. I think it was called frozen or something like that.

One of the great things that grunge did was it made all these large 80s bands play small venues briefly. I remember seeing sebastian Bach play Jaxx in sprinfield VA in front of 200 people maybe. He played all the skid songs, albeit without skid row but it still was pretty cool. Had it not been for grunge that would have been an arena show. After the show he hung out and just talked to people. Pretty cool.
