Teargas - Crazy (EP) (2004)
Awesome disc!
Ever heard it before now?
No actually I've never head it until now...in fact I was just saying that in a message to John (DaHun72) who kindly traded it with me (awesome trader BTW).
Have they got any more tunes worth owning apart from this EP - I've heard they turned crap.

I got bored of reading that ramble real quick. If you could have summarised that down into a single paragraph or just a line or two I might have got something out of it.

I'm gonna be a right bastid! Right now! And Here! And how!
I've held my tongue for tooooo long, but having heard this band quite extensively...they SUCK dogs cocks, little dogs cocks, medium dogs cocks and big dogs cocks and cats cocks...in 3D,,and my cock (except mine isn't as big as the last few!) half the people who like them hated and took the piss out of The Darkness but at least The Darkness wrote some decent catchy fun songs.
This seriously is kid wank rock! Death to false metal........yawn, Manowar said that 20 years ago you stupid fucking twats (band not HH members!) At least when Manowar coined the phrase ..yes "Death to False Metal" is surely a Manowar inspired saying, it sounded like they believed it... SP just sing it like they want to be bummed by someone wearing a loin cloth...wimp...eee...girly shite!
Seriously this is rock for knobs!
It's a suckerpunch to make you part with cash, it's just a better executed version of Spinal fuckin' Tap but without the humour, and if your sucked in by this bullshit.....then abandon all hope of having any objective view of music...life..porn...anything.
If Steel Panther are what everyone is raving about....then thank fuck I like other genres of music because if this is what passes for good listening then I'm outta here.
Britny Fox look + Weird Al Yankovic songs = dickheads parting with cash
+1
Sorry, but I tried so hard to like this band based on some top reviews (many by people who's music tastes I highly respect) but I just cannot find the appeal.
Bottom line - It's the lyrics that are the problem.
Lines such as "I'll kiss your mouth even after you swallow my load". Now that's kinda funny, even hilarious the first time I heard it, but it gets old real quick and I certainly feel embarrassed to crank this up in front of friends and family. And that's just the first example I came across but the truth is that these type of lyrics are spread throughout just about every song on the disc.
The argument that every other glam/sleaze/hair band has lyrics like these is simply not true. Most of them use these sorta lyrics sparingly and make use of a little thing called subtlety, whereas Steel Panther unashamedly go ahead and spell it out, plastering these lyrics all over their music.
Now I understand Steel Panther started out as a parody band and their music is intended to be humorous and shock people but to me this doesn't make their music any more listenable.
Funny at first, and there's nothing wrong with having a joke but in the end this is not music that is going to find regular spins in my household.
I'm not looking to get in an argument. Just my thoughts.

No. 9 - Colours (1993)
Wow, now that is a good find. If you don't like it for whatever reason, please let me know and we'll try to hook something up.
Where the hell did you get that one from?
Picked this one up from GEMM. They're a great band and you don't hear them mentioned too often. Gotta watch out as their is a dodgy bootleg going around but I managed to score an original.

What do you think of that Teramaze...? I really life it, but its a total different direction from the previous albums. The 2nd one is killer Queensryche/Balance of power style.
Whered you get 91 Suite from? Got any tips?
I haven't played the Teramaze CD yet, only got it yesterday. To be honest I'm not expecting a lot from it and I didn't really think their 'Tears To Dust' album was anything too special either but for the cheap price I got this for I'll give it a try anyway.
I got 91 Suite from the CD Inzane E-Bay store. There's another copy on there now for $25 buy it now. Just hoping they will re-issue the 2nd album soon as well, as it now sells for $50-60

Hmmm, not sure I like the idea of a bonus track being something new rather than something from the vaults.
Actually I'd prefer a new track as a bonus track most of the time. I'm sick of crappy live versions and poor quality demos for bonus tracks.

I've now made a donation (wish I could have given more) but every bit must help some.
Now for my guess of Dan's new no. 1 album for 2010:
I was going to say Avantasia but instead I'll go with Grand Illusion.

Does anyone know about the BFD - s/t (1994) on Iguana Records?

Check out this list of 360 AOR/Westcoast albums.
It's called "The Secret Door Library - Albums you need to check out"
http://www.bluedesert.dk/secrets2.html
It has some pretty interesting stuff on there, quite a few of which I have in my collection and rate very highly.
But this got me wondering, as there are so many albums on the list that I've never heard of, what are some 'lesser known' albums on this list that don't get talked about very much that you think are worth checking out? This might be a good way for the AOR fans here to find a few gems that went under the radar.
For me I quite like the Andy Baum (& the Trix) album 'Extra Feathers' that doesn't get talked about much.
