Best sleaze/glam release of 2008?


Clutch

Recommended Posts

Ok, been listening to a lot of this stuff of late (circus of power, shotgun messiah, crash diet, etc) and wanted to get your picks (or suggestions) for the best sleaze/glam cds of the past year. Hell, the best release of recent memory is fine. Thanks for the input.

Far as I can tell it's been a really dead year for it. Not even sure how "proper" these suggestions are, but this is all I can think of:

 

MOTLEY CRUE - Saints of los angeles

GEMINI FIVE - Sex drugs anarchy

DIRTY LOOKS - Superdeluxe / Calafornia thingy

 

All great discs.

F#@k I forgot about the Motley Crue and the Dirtly Looks discs.

I'd say the Crue would be winner then with the DL 'Superdeluxe' second and then Sister Sin and then DL's 'California Free Ride'.

Crue would win a poll cos everyone knows them, but it was half a good album, half a poor album in my opinion.

 

'Danger' are pretty good too.

You should know me better than to say I'd ever pick Motley Crue over anyone for a reason like that. I just think it is genuinely a good disc (not perfect by any means) and a lot better than the rest of the "sleaze" genre I've heard this year.

 

But you make a good point with Danger. I forgot them, but they're freakin' excellent.

For this year, I'd have to say that one of my favorites was, Fatal Smile - "World Domination"...not really sleaze, just a melodic metal with a heavier edge, and a little glam too. GOOD stuff though, check it out if you haven't already!

 

A few other ones that come to mind for '08;

Saints Of The Underground - "Love the Sin, Hate the Sinner", Big Cock - "Motherload" and Gemini Five - "Sex Drugs Anarchy".

I forgot about the SOTU and the Big Cock, both of those were really good especially the Big Cock.

    • I wonder what control they have over the releases? That have promoted the BMG individual releases. The 2009 reissues were by original label, EMI. And this boxset seems weird being issued by Cherry Red. And I have not seen the bands social media promote it at all. I wonder if the reason the BMG ones were lacking in the bonus tracks from the previous reissue was EMI holding onto the rights, but have now allowed Cherry Red to release them. I know EMI used to be the distributer for Cherry Red, so they may be more forthcoming with the material.  
    • Yep, cracking indie release of which there are so many but this one is actually really good.
    • I have been a Band Maid fan since their early days (2015) as I really don't mind foreign vocals as long as the music is great, but I always kinda avoided Babymetal as I saw a video of them once and really wasn't impressed with the kiddy vocals, so never gave them another chance. Fast forward to now and on the back of the collab with Electric Callboy I have decided to give them a go. I thought they had a huge discography as they have like 25 albums, but on closer inspection it is only four studio albums and 21 live albums. As I am not a fan of live albums anyway, I decided to buy the four studio albums as they are all quite cheap. Have to say there music is a mixed bag, but overall really enjoying a lot of it. Not sure if I just picked the wrong song to start with, or if it is just that I have adapted more due to getting into a lot of weird and wonderful foreign bands over the last few years, but I am glad I finally gave them a proper go. Have to say, if this song was sung in English I think they would have a lot of fans on here  
    • Babymetal - Metal resistance Babymetal - The other one
    • Enjoyed their last cd "Human Nature" remind me of a mellower Black Stone Cherry, similar to Little Caesar.
    • BlackRain - Hot Rock Time Machine Lee Aaron - Bodyrock
    • Now theres a blast from the past  I'm lucky enough to possess 
    • Another i'm still awaiting the arrival of...same day release/delivery my arse Amazon  Still this is sounding like their best release thus far...they are gaining and getting better...although I did enjoy the last few albums also...but the sound/production from this one is excellent.
    • Still awaiting mine to arrive...should've been on Weds  or according to my order that was the case anyway
