RATT all the way. Poison was a Kix copycat.

Pat!!

dont forget Herman Ze German!!

I already have that one.

And I will have the others soon, as well, as I placed my order today!!

Just noticed that the Retrospect website now has the new releases from Reckless, Ron Keel, Mass and Lorraine available.

I guess I won't be bidding....

(I just listened to "In God We Trust" today and GEESH, the amount of sugar and sap on that disc damn near gave me diabetes...!)

That's what I hate about the earlier stuff. I love the beefy sound musically, but the lyrics, the ballads and Sweet's voice on the ballads - makes me sick to the stomach. IMO 'Against the law' is easily their finest hour.

 

I wish I was as enthusiastic about the "Reborn" album as most folks seemed to be around here, I thought it stunk on ice personally. Sold my copy off several months back. I was very disappointed, especially after a fifteen year (!) wait for new material!!

I actually would rate 'Reborn' 2nd, probably tied with 'In god we trust'. It'd be hard to rank them, but I thought 'Reborn' was a good album.

We would probably rate these albums in exact opposite order!

Number

Atomic Arena edging State of Control.

Against the Law is my pick, I love that album.

Is there any other choice? I like several somgs from previous albums, but this one kicks ass throughout with only a few fillers. Huge factor for me too - Stryper recorded arguably all of the worst ballads ever, up until this album, where they unleashed possibly my fave Stryper track, 'Lady'.

 

FYI, when I crashed my first car 'Caught in the middle' and 'All for one' blared through the speakers as I stared at the wreckage. Yeah, 'Against the law' by miles.

Typical.... We disagree again, Geoff. Next to Reborn, Against the Law is my least favorite Stryper disc.

I went with To Hell With the Devil, followed closely by Soldiers Under Command.

Fat Freddy, if you ever get a poll going comparing this album to Def Leppard's X, I may have to give the nod to the latter.

How anyone can say "The Elder" is cool and "X" is horrible is a mystery that not even an entire squad of Sherlock Holmeses could figure out. "The Elder" is so bad, it doesn't even deserve to be the yellow, sticky, rancid pus inside the bulging boil on the ass of hard rock.

Come on, let us know how you REALLY feel!

I tried listening to Helmet this past few weeks, but it's just not my thing...........

Went with Rise to It.

 

This one is almost as bad as Elder.

 

 

I love this album, always have.

This and 'Elder' may as well have been recorded by different bands due to how much better this one is.

Okay, I am man enough to admit when I am wrong.

I gave this one another spin tonight, and I have to say it is not bad at all. There are several decent songs on the disc. It is NOT NEARLY as lame as Elder.

Just wondering what happened with this one.....

 

Especially since Nancy is again a seller on Ebay....

 

Again with the old account? Incredible...

Yeah, hamilton419 is alive and well. She is not selling nearly as many items now, but she still has a few boots listed.

Okay, thanks to many in this thread, I just wasted about 40 minutes relistening to this pile of crap.

My original verdict stands: There is ONE good song: "I". There is more crap in this album than in the normal outhouse of the 19th century.

Fat Freddy, if you ever get a poll going comparing this album to Def Leppard's X, I may have to give the nod to the latter.

Jesus....I actually want this thread to die......

 

 

JL

Yeah, just like the album did.

"Euphoria" is ten times better then "X".

 

Joe Elliott armpit-farting "God Save The Queen" into a microphone, accompanied by Phil Collen on kazoo, would be a hundred times better than "X"

Hear! Hear!

Sounds like a great idea, Fat Freddy!

Wow. Now this one would be tough!

Which is more putrid, Kiss' Elder or Def Leppard's X?

Sort of like, which stinks more, cow crap or horse crap?

Tony....I tried entering that ID Thrash-or-die E Bay said it was an invalid ID.....is that the correct spelling?

Actually, it's thrash-to-die.

Does anyone else find this somewhat disturbing or am I alone in the wilderness?

 

Well, not as disturbing as someone equating collecting cd's with being a drug addict...

FIX ............................

This guy gets all his shit from DavesMetal - and Dave buys directly from Greece. I have been to his house - I know all about it. Oh...and that's a FACT.

Is that Dave Weber, AKA metalslaves?

Crap.

My least favorite Kiss album ever.

One good song: I.

Tim , just know that whenever you buy a Metal Mayhem release - the artist isn't getting paid.

Sam, is this the way it is with ALL his artists? Or are you just more familiar with the Ron Keel situation?

I have bought numerous CDs from MetalMayhem, although not nearly the number I have purchased through vegascds and RR.

Sam, any additional tracks going on the two Keel re-issues?
