My first tattoo I'm getting is the W.A.S.P. sawblade logo on my arm... Yep, I'm a diehard. haha LOVE all eras of W.A.S.P. haha Holmes' tone rocked. Blair kicks ass and his guitars are wicked... Duda and Rod on the bass... Dude, Blackie knows how to pick 'em. haha

I'll say I'm not really a big WASP fan. They have some cool songs but the only album I was ever really able to get into was The Crimson Idol. Damn that was a depressing album but it was great.

Great band, for the last 2 yrs it seems like i listen to a couple of their albums every week. I really liked them when i was a kid but kinda got bored with them and took a break in the 90s, then a couple years ago got back into them and they are always in my rotation.

zero appreciation. They has some cool tracks but I never took them serious for some reason.
Holmes did have some cool Jacksons though!

I love WASP but never really gotten into anything past Last Command even though I hear nothing but good things about them... No idea why...

They were there at the very beginning of the scene... I remember as a kid getting Circus Magazine/ Hit Parader and it would be wasp, van halen, ratt, crue, ozzy, quiet riot on the cover. And buried in the back pages were these small adds for megaforce records with unkown bands like metallica and anthrax!! I remember queensryche had a small add for the first ep in there as well... what a time period

Blackie is my all time favorite vocalist. Wish we had more guys today who could rip like he did, instead of all the shitty screaming vocalists we have nowdays.

This is exactly why I love this place. You guys rule. WASP kicked ass in a strange way. I loved them and WAYSTED and everytime I went to the local record shop the guy would harass me sooooo bad. Blah blah blah there is no new WAYSTED or the shitty Blackie Balless WASP crap. I would just laugh... I still have some original vinyl imports and stuff from these guys what classic 80's metal. As for Mr Lawless you guys know he played bass in the New York Dolls on the last tour or something right? Damn he is a classic. Danyeo I was 18 in 84 and listening to this stuff. Thanks for making me feel old! Bastard! HAHA

Wasp was my favorite when I found them in 82 & I was 12. Randy's BCR guitars were the best.
Waysted also was great, not many remember them.

and take that!
A lot of this stuff can seem silly and trite now but at the time this was so heavy. Love the generic key change into the solo.

Its just great... I considered posting this one, it was a toss up! James you would understand the voice, memorable melody, and hooks they used despite the hard appearance. Blind in Texas is another fav... lol

Havent seen those in years. Blackie looks like the love child of Gene Simmons and Adam Ant.

The first album is a classic! For the time it was pretty heavy as well rythmically with cutting guitars and driving tempo. Really dug the song writing on that one.
