Yeah, anyone browsing his auctions and coming across CDs like these two will know right away they are boots, the covers are completely different than the original pressings and anyone that half way pays attention to legit releases will know these are boots, it always amazes me how people have the balls to try to pull this off:

I have an original pressing of this Hittman disc and it doesn't have the band's name in huge red letters at the top of the front. The artwork goes all the way to all four corners. :thppt: to this guy.

I don't know who to feel sorry for the most, the crapbag seller or the suckers who bid on them?

If it weren't for the suckers, there'd be no crapbags. So I'd say it's a draw.

In the buyers defense, they may not even know what they're buying. They probably aren't as "versed" as we are when it comes to spotting a boot. Also, some may not even care as long as they get the music

Believe me, I'm NOT on the side of the seller, but I think Freddy's point is if there wasn't any crime in the world, then there wouldn't be any victims, very noble stand, but very unrealistic. I was just agreeing with the idea. But in the end when you see one of these boots sell for a good chuck of change, you can safely assume they were not in it just for the music.

It's funny how he lists everything as 'used'. What me means is he 'used' a CDR to make a copy, I guess.

      Sebastian Bach New Single... What Do I Got To Lose

      By Captain Howdy · Posted

      So finally got around to listening to the album (still waiting for CD to arrive but at least a digital version came with the order). This is defo the best album he has released since leaving Skid Row, and is better than anything released by his former band (even the Erik fronted album). I liked his solo stuff, but he was always trying too hard to be modern and heavy, so there were very few actual stand out tracks. On here though it really is more of a throwback. While not quite classic Skid Row, it is probably as close as we will ever get, kinda sitting somewhere sonically between the first two albums. The only downside for me is the fact there is only one ballad and it doesn't even come close to the two that featured on Angel Down. Seb took a long break between this and his previous album, and I think in that time he has taken time to reevaluate what he wants to do musically. As stated earlier, even the album cover is a throwback with it being a painting his father started decades ago. Hopefully any future releases will stick to this style, and not return to the style used on his last few albums.

      Not sure, but sounds like christian lyrics to me. And could'nt find it on HH yet. 25 years ago I would have loved this, today I'm atheist and do not listen anymore to such... explicit lyrics.

      I got it for free when I bought the Dirty Americans album. It's a cool little sampler.

      Better than I expected, honestly, as GUN was never my thing.

      Erik Gronwall leaves Skid Row

      By tts42572 · Posted

      Agree. Have been a fan of Halestorm and Lzzy....she's fantastic. That said though, this Skid Row thing just feels "off" to me.  She sounds fine but I think it's simply that hearing a female voice do the songs just doesn't seem right after listening to the originals for so long.   I much prefer hearing Lzzy in Halestorm.  I'd rather see her concentrate on that and also concentrate on doing new music that's more in line with their first 2 albums!

      Melodic Hard Rock Song of the Day

      By Captain Howdy · Posted

      From memory it was recorded after the original pledge release of Beautiful things and was added as a bonus song when it became available to the general public.
