Is this out yet? I'd like to hear it.
-
One of the best WASP discs in YEARS!!
-
I always dug "Black Wind Fire & Steel" off the Fighting The World disc.
The rest I really never got into.
-
I hate NELSON!!! Ewwwwwwwwwww
-
Hate both of these bands so it was tough to pick. I chose BJ over DF on most.
-
I don't think it's over-rated. It took a few spins to get into it but now I love it!
-
What is your favorite track off the new Unruly Child disc?
The entire thing kicks ass except the first two tracks.
I went with "Read My Mind"
-
I just jammed out to these in this order:
Various Kickass Metal Bands - The Best Of Metal Blade Volume 2
Paul Stanley - Live To Win
Shakra - Everest
Unruly Child - World's Collide
Slayer - Reign In Blood
Lynch Mob - Wicked Sensation

I received this one in the mail yesterday, it's pretty good. The first 2 tracks are the fillers...bad way to start, but lots of class tracks follow, my fav ones are When We Were Young, Love Is Blind, When Worlds Collide, Read My Mind and despite having a hard to watch video the track Very First Time is also excellent. Will this make my top 10 at years end, I doubt it. Too many stronger cd's have been released this year.
Hey!! Totally agree with ya on this. I've been jamming out to this for the last few days and it's definitely some very fine melodic hard rock. I only wish it had a little beefier sound to it. It's definitely a very growing disc. Still hate tracks 1 + 2 though. The verses and groove are fine but both choruses are terrible.

Former W.A.S.P. Members Join Forces In W.A.S.; Audio Samples Available - Oct. 16, 2010
Chris Holmes (guitar; ex-W.A.S.P.), Randy Piper (guitar; ANIMAL, ex-W.A.S.P.), Steve Unger (bass; ex-METAL CHURCH), Rich Lewis (vocals; ANIMAL) and Stet Howland (drums; ex-W.A.S.P.) have joined forces in a brand new band called WHERE ANGELS SUFFER (W.A.S.). The group's debut album, "Purgatory", is scheduled for release on October 31. Most of the recording sessions for the CD took place in Ft. Myers, Florida where the band comes together "to share ideas and tap the endless well of creativity their union has inspired," according to a press release.
"Purgatory" track listing:
01. Cardiac Arrest
02. Can't Stop
03. Don't Wanna Die
04. Crying Eagle
05. Unnatural High
06. Judgment Day
07. Zombie (CRANBERRIES cover)
08. Lust
09. Violent New Breed
10. Morning After
11. Eye of the Storm
12. Boom
Check out audio samples at Amazon.com.
According to a press release, WHERE ANGELS SUFFER "will embrace their metal history while simultaneously astounding their fans with groundbreaking original songs that could only be created by the exceptional chemistry and passion these professional musicians discovered when they came together again."
Piper, an original member of W.A.S.P. along with Chris Holmes and Blackie Lawless, helped create the sound that took the band's first two records to gold status. "I play from the heart!" Randy says.
Randy's credit to heavy metal can not be summed up very easily as he is continually embarking on creative pursuits and is still very much a part of the metal scene. "You can't go back, but you can definitely move ahead," he says.
Holmes has etched out a stellar career which can be traced back to the early days of the metal scene that infiltrated L.A. and the Sunset Strip. A California native himself, Holmes is also well known for his role in "The Decline of Western Civilization Part II: The Metal Years" and other projects, both in film and music, having played with the "A" list of metal musicians.
Piper and Holmes, who were an essential part of W.A.S.P., have stayed in close contact and feel now is the perfect time to launch the much-anticipated project fans have been waiting for.
Longtime drummer of W.A.S.P., Howland was featured on ten albums (studio and live) and has toured with all the top metal acts, including BLACK SABBATH, a personal highlight during his W.A.S.P. years. Aside from W.A.S.P., the ever-active Howland's resume includes TEMPLE OF BRUTALITY, RUN 21, KILLING MACHINE, BELLADONNA, BLACKFOOT and LITA FORD, just to name a few. Howland resides in Florida, where he has a recording studio to keep him busy on a variety of projects, including his newest one, a reality show that will be filmed at his home and studio.
"We're going out and were rocking," says Howland, who sees WHERE ANGELS SUFFER as an opportunity to bring some great musicians together and make some "real music."
Steve Unger, who played with METAL CHURCH, is a talented bassist in his own right: his contribution to WHERE ANGELS SUFFER completes the dynamic of the band. Grateful for the opportunity to play on the project, he and the other band members have a mutual respect for one another because of the unbelievable talent of each artist involved.
Unger, who comes from Seattle, Washington, has had a long career with METAL CHURCH and has been a key contributor to their success over the years. He believes this album will be one of the best culminations of talent the metal scene has seen in a long time. Unger commented that the music is so relevant today because it is "a high-bred cross-breed between old and new."
Lewis, a longtime friend and fellow musician of Piper and Holmes, was a natural choice for WHERE ANGELS SUFFER frontman and has become a key component to this venture. He has played alongside many greats artists, including his current bandmates, some of whom where in ANIMAL. He has been compared to greats like Ronnie James Dio, Bruce Dickinson and Lawless, but his signature style has blended with the dynamic sound of his bandmates that sets this album apart from the rest.
WHERE ANGELS SUFFER is a unification of style, brought together by each bandmember's tenacious effort and dedication to bring the fans the music they love. Whether it was the alignment of the planets or simply the right timing, the production of the album and the formation of the band came together seamlessly.

I agree with you guys about tracks 1 and 2. They both suck ass pretty much.
I'm more of a metalhead but I do like Unruly Child a lot. The rest of the disc is very very good. Those first 2 tracks should have been left off the disc.
-
Samples sound good but I hope they rock on some tracks. Both of those tracks were pretty mellow.
-
Huge metal fan here but I have to agree with Fat Freddy. Just never saw what all the hype was on this band. I just can't get in to them AT ALL.
-
Half way through this for the first time and damn this is killer so far.
Classic Accept through and through and Mark sounds very UDO like.
I think old Accept fans are gonna love this.
I totally agree!! This is one killer disc!! A sure contender for Album Of The Year!!
-
My favorite tracks are "Mother Of Mercy" and "Coming Home". Also digging "The Man That Would Be King", "The Alchemist", and "The Talisman".
-
I actually think the manufacturing sucks nowadays. My old old old old old (did I mention old?) Song Walkman cd player has long outlived many many players since then. Everything gets made cheaper... thus breaks easier. :mad:
-
This disc arrived late last week and I brought it to work, never had a chance to listen to it. Grabbed it today on the way out the door to listen for the ride home and my car CD player went to hell...skips and stutters. So, I still have not played this one yet. <sigh>
Do you want me to send you the mp3's? I uploaded it to my computer.

Review:
If you're one of those people that salivate over the idea of the original Skid Row reforming, look no further than Baltimore, Maryland's Sin 4 Sin. Barely a year old, Sin 4 Sin benefit from being young and inexperienced -- playing music without trying to fit in or being steered into a certain direction.
From the opening track "Love Vice" Sin 4 Sin play dirty sleaze rock with some rapid-fire drumming, and the fact vocalist Brandon Hayden sounds so much like Sebastian Bach is an added bonus. I'm not so sure Bach himself could scream like this anymore without his voice cracking -- there is something to be said for being young! On "Fast, Hot, Sleazy" the Bach comparisons take a back seat as the song stumbles out of the gate but it slowly builds itself up into something special -- I especially like how the band works the lyrics. It's back to the gritty screams on "She Can Pay The Bills In Ones", a song that could be the band's 'hit' single with its '70s inspired guitar tone, before Sin 4 Sin get even heavier on "Buy Me A Drink" which could easily become a sleaze staple in the same vein as "Monkey Business".
Sin 4 Sin may be young, and don't exactly look the part (although they have the right idea with the sexy artwork), but these guys understand what sleaze is. They're revamped the line-up since putting out the 7 Deadly EP, and the addition of a second guitarist can only make Sin 4 Sin better. Keep an eye on these guys... they have a hell of a lot of promise!
