  1. Yeah I have no complaints with any of the one's I've bought, just picked up Sleeze Beez & Beau Nasty , I have the originals too but the remastered sound is what I'm after now.

WHITE TRASH WITH CASH WATER UNDER THE BRIDGE TUG OF WAR FIRE IN YOUR BODY FINAL RESTING PLACE LEGEND OF C.C ROAD CULTURE CLASH CITY THE CALL MISERY MY BEST FRIEND’S GIRL ODE TO PEGGY ‘S THE BLUE BIRD HAS LANDED (The Uncut Trail Mix) and...27th June BIG FUCKIN’ DEAL HELLUVATIME SWEET ASYLUM WHITE LIES/ BLACK TRUTH CHERRY BOMB MARIONETTE IT’S NOT EAZY CRASHED BY THE FIRESIDE BLOOD MONEY CHEAP NICOTINE MIDNIGHT GRIND RACHEL’S DEAD BONUS TRACKS RIFF RAFF MASS CONFUSION RACHEL’S BREATHING Slik Toxik was formed in 1988 out of Toronto hard rock band Portrait. Portrait consisted of original members singer/guitarist Nick Walsh, drummer Kevin Harrison, guitarist Kevin Gale and bassist/ lyricist Dave Mercel. Capitol Records (EMI) signed the band in 1991 and issued an EP, 'Smooth And Deadly'. This was followed in 1992 by the full album Doin' the Nasty. Both the EP and full-length album were produced by Paul Gross and co-produced by Anthony Vanderburgh and recorded at Toronto's world class facility studio Phase One. They won the 1993 Juno Award for Hard Rock Album of the Year. The "White Lies/Black Truth" video won the People's Choice Award for 'Best Video Of The Year' and "Helluvatime" took home the 'Best Metal Video Award' at the 1992 MuchMusic Video Awards. Heading into the 90’s, the waters were a bit rocky for the hard rock/metal world. The landscape was changing and bands such as Warrant, Poison, and Skid Row who all at one time were selling out arenas and amphitheaters found themselves playing to 1/2 full venues and in some cases reduced to playing half full clubs. It was also a bad time for new bands of the genre who were coming out. While this was true, it definitely didn’t mean that these bands weren’t any good. As a matter of fact, bands like Tora Tora, War Babies, and Babylon AD were doing this stuff as good if not better than many of their peers. Of those acts, one band and their debut album rose above them all to really blow our mind. That band was Slik Toxik and the album was Doin' The Nasty 20+ years later, Doin’ the Nasty is an album that is still a fucking blast to listen to. The production is perfect, the band plays absolutely amazing, and the songs are so well thought out, well written, and perfectly executed. Slik Toxik is a band that may have never rose above the horizon to make their presence known but Doin’ the Nasty serves as a reminder that some of the greatest albums ever made are the ones you never even knew existed.
  3. oh yeah,love that movie...and soundtrack
  4. You hit the nail on the head Russ when you said Sensational
  5. All excellent points which I agree with...really valid questions...I think Count 77 are Danny the Counts from Counting Cars tv show band..they have a few albums. I'd also add that I'm curious how Yngwie manages a 40 min set? I mean he does love a solo/twiddle/guitar wank...that last quite a while...so how many actual songs will he get in?
  6. Its like that here all of the time...but we don't get these kind of bands..ever...theyre welcome anytime...but it would probably just be me that turns up no profit...but i'd enjoy myself lol
  7. They must be ok though...they're the main support to Kix lol
  8. I eventually did do you know if its getting a cd release or just digital Stefan?
  9. Been spinning this cd today...been a while since I did
  10. Fisc - Too Hot For Love (No Remorse Records Remaster)
  11. Yeah its a pity that he made such a shit show out of the follow up album...damn that was a major disappointment
  12. Crashdiet - Automaton Tygers Of Pan Tang - Noises From The Cathouse
  13. Intersesting...so thats what Hammers been up to
  14. Not bad at all...that 2nd track reminds me of something from Roxy Blue Want Some era...not to mention the obvious VH influences
  15. Mick White - Somethings Got To Give Caught In Action - Devils Tango Flight 19 - Something We Did (1985-1992) The UK Lost Jewels Collector's Series vol.24 Resist & Bite - S/t Wild America - Old School Cool (preorder)
  16. Nice news,but if they are only recording song number two at the minute then an album is a long way off
  17. In no order Degreed Ronnie Atkins Giant Reckless Love Radioactive Treat Black Swan Wicked Sensation Kissin Dynamite but so much still to come Leppard,CiS,DRN,H.e.a.t,GoK,Crashdiet for a start
  18. Same...this is not the band they once were.
