Does anyone have the original copy of it ?

 

AFTERHOURS_ST.JPG

 

I want to but it, but I'm interested only in the official release only, so can somebody tell me what label was it released by?

 

HH database says that it was released in 1988, but I've read that it has been officialy released on CD in 1992 or something like that.

 

I was also wondering what's the value of this discs, since the database is not up-to-date.

 

Is it as good as their debut ?

The 2nd album by After Hours is very bluesy & imho, has the one good song that is preventing it being a forgettable album.

The album is, imho, one of the worst follow ups a band has ever done, up there with Joker ( Portugal) Simon Chase etc..

Best save your money for the unreleased album Shy aka Shy England recorded with the singer from After Hours in the early 90's which hopefully will be released this year in any format :beerbang:

Hmmmm, bluesy? Can't say I really agree, Andre. Tracks like 'You're never alone' and 'Heartache' are killer hard rockers. It's been a while since I heard this but I remember it being just a harder rocking version of the band. Vocals a little rougher than the debut, but I think I actually preferred this to the good but very safe debut.

I'm 100 % with you geoff. I have both and think the second album is the better one of the two. It is a little bit rockier but some songs are just amazing like 'You're never alone' which reminds me alot of old House of Lords. I have the Jap. pressing. I kind of like Francis voice on this better as well as it is rougher as Geoff said. I can let you know the info later today when I'm back home.

To answer your main question, I have an original and it was officially released in 1993 on the BMG label in Japan. The catalog number is BVCP686. Unfortunately, my copy does not have an OBI. I agree with the others in that it has a bluesier feel to it, although I wouldn't go so far as to agree with Andy that it is as bad as the Joker "Ecstacy" followup. I rather liked the sound on "After Hours" Featuring John Francis.

      Voodoo Angel - Moulin Rouge

      By Stefan · Posted

      From Lions Pride Music: Voodoo Angel ANNOUNCES THE HIGHLY ANTICIPATED RELEASE OF THEIR SECOND ALBUM, #MOULINROUGE UNDER Lions Pride Music - OUT NOVEMBER 29, 2024. Band: Voodoo Angel Album: Moulin Rouge Label: Lions Pride Music Catalogue Number: LPM089 Release Date: November 29, 2024   The wait is over. Voodoo Angel, the electrifying sleaze-metal phenomenon, is set to release their second studio album, Moulin Rouge, on November 29, 2024, under the esteemed Lions Pride Music label. Following the success of their 2022 debut, First Spell, the band is poised to deliver another hard-hitting collection of tracks that are unapologetically loud, thrilling, and unforgettable. Moulin Rouge is a testament to Voodoo Angel's relentless energy and unique sound—a fusion of sleaze, metal, and pure rock that has captivated audiences worldwide. The album features ten explosive tracks, including the anthemic opener "We're Still Alive," the poignant "When Life Passes You By," and the gritty "Daddy's Back To The Madam." Fans can expect the same raw power and intensity that made Voodoo Angel a global sensation. Tracklist: 01. We're Still Alive 02. When Life Passes You By 03. Broken 04. It's Gonna Hurt 05. Daddy's Back To The Madam 06. I Won't Stand In Line 07. More 08. Sin City 09. Come & Get It 10. So Pretty   Voodoo Angel's rise to fame is nothing short of legendary. From their beer-fueled beginnings to their viral sleaze-metal renditions of pop classics like "Billie Jean" and INXS's "Devil Inside," the band has consistently pushed the boundaries of rock music. Their original compositions, such as "Wake Me When It's Done," have further solidified their place in the rock pantheon, amassing fans from Europe to Australia. The band's lineup, featuring Jean-Luc Rumèbe (Lead Vocals, Keytar, Piano, Guitars & Keys), Jim Red (Bass guitar & Backing vocals), Christophe Mouynet (Lead Guitars & Backing vocals), and Thomas Feuga (Drums & Backing vocals), is a powerhouse of talent and chemistry. Together, they have crafted Moulin Rouge, an album that not only meets but exceeds the high expectations set by their debut. Recorded, mixed, and mastered by Jean-Luc Rumèbe at JLR Studio Productions in France, Moulin Rouge is a sonic masterpiece. Rumèbe, who also composed, wrote, and arranged the album, brings his signature style to every track, ensuring that each song is a testament to Voodoo Angel's raw, unfiltered power. Fans can catch a glimpse of what's to come with the album sampler and artwork, both of which reflect the band’s distinctive aesthetic. Additionally, the track "So Pretty" features special guest backing vocals by Ricky Kearns, adding another layer of depth to the album. As Voodoo Angel prepares to unleash Moulin Rouge upon the world, one thing is certain: this band is here to stay. With a global deal with Lions Pride Music and a second album that is destined to become a modern rock classic, Voodoo Angel is set to electrify the world once again. Voodoo Angel is: Jean-Luc Rumèbe : Lead Vocals, Keytar, Piano, Guitars & Keys Jim Red : Bass guitar & Backing vocals Christophe Mouynet : Lead Guitars & Backing vocals Thomas Feuga : Drums & Backing vocals Additional Backing Vocals on „So Pretty“ by Ricky Kearns

      Ah, the old record label make a quick buck off bands they dropped years ago sets where they are just bare bones albums with no bonus material. I thought maybe I missed box sets with bonus stuff. But once again, still reasonably priced.

      Guns N Roses - Appetite for destruction super deluxe reissue?

      By heavyharmonies · Posted

      Dredging this up again, as you can now find this set new for about $50-60 shipped on eBay. I just finally bought it to get the 5.1 channel blu-ray version of the album. $179 for the set? No fucking way. But $50? Ehh, ok. more reasonable IMO.
