  1. Have patience with this one for Gods sake! It is a grower and once you have given it enough spins, you will realize it is up there with the best they have ever done. It took me some spins to appreciate songs like "Invincible", "Energized", "Forever Young" and even "Blind Faith". I rate this album a healthy 92 % !!!

     

    How much is enough spins?

    If it hasn't grabbed someone by the 3rd spin, then it's a case of just trying hard to like it or just trying to find a reason to like it if they persist on spinning it again and again.

  2.  

    Glam and sleaze seems to be the quietest its been since pre-2005.

     

    Don't you/we say that every year since 2005?

     

     

    Not really since 2005, but maybe last 5 years.

     

    There was a couple of fruitful years in there around the late 2000's when there was stuff like babylon bombs, some of the better crashdiet and HCSS, blackrain hell n diesel, and others like Bastardz, 44 Calibre, BabyJane....but I'd say over the last 5 years it has been in steady decline.

  3. It wasn't a trap or bait.... haha

    I just knew where this would sit with you.

    Funnily enough, they're one of those bands scoring some really good support slots (eg Ace Frehley, and Sebastian Bach being the most recent)

     

     

     

    Oh dear mate, are you just trying to booby trap me? You know what I think of that without asking, don't you? It's horrible. The only divide I see is that you can have sex with two of the band members, but not the other two.

     

    Otherwise, it's poor music, bad vocals, weak production and really limp songs. The chorus hooks are vaguely present, but it's all very 5th or 6th tier kind of stuff.

     

     

  4. For most of these I took advantage of ebayAU 15% off everything a few weeks back, and combined that with a few sellers offering free postage to order a few LPs. Worked out to an average of about $AUD20 each shipped international! Others I simply grabbed at greatly discounted prices.

     

    Arrived:
    LA Guns - Hollywood Forever LP
    Sebastian Bach - Give Em Hell LP
    Cinderella - Still Climbing LP
    Pretty Boy Floyd - Kiss of Death LP
    Balckboard Jungle - I Like It Alot LP-reissue
    Massive - Full Throttle (2LP)


    Waiting:
    Tigertailz - Knives LP
    Sebastian Bach - Kicking & Screaming LP
    Hollywood Burnouts - Kick It Up A Notch
    Dangerous Toys - 2LP reissue (first 2 albums)

    I thought they were terrible. :(

     

    This seems to be your standard response to everything these days Geoff

     

     

    Only the terrible stuff. Look in the threads about good music and you will see much more variation. Or, in the post at the bottom of the previous page where I complimented about 400 bands. ;) Or all the time when I give credit where it's due. ;) Sorry mate, if it's crap it's crap and that's how I describe it, and if it's not I say nice things about it.

     

     

    I honestly must not read any of those threads of bands you like. To be fair i read 90% glam sleaze related stuff on here, so there must be nothing glam/sleaze related that you have liked over the past 2 years, and the stuff you do like I'm not reading those threads.

  6. My new Aussie rock blog :)

    Also have a Facebook page: search for "7 Wishes Music"

     

    More to come.

     

    Oh and for anyone interested, there is a copy for sale here. It's $50 but this CD almost never shows up.

    Cool start to the blog. Will be looking to see what follows!
