Reckless - Too Glam To Die


Geoff

Recommended Posts

Did I miss a post, or is no one talking about this album here yet? It's no real world beater, but it's a pretty cool and very well produced hard rock album. The band is Italian and there is an accent present at times (especially on 'Trill of the Night') but for the most part it's a pretty cool hard rock album. The vocalist switches between a Cinderella/Britny Fox scream (funnily enough, in a very odd choice, he chooses to exercise this on one of the ballads; 'I was born to make you dream') and clean vocals for a large part of the album too.

 

Anyway, check it out. Some cool stuff like 'Kiss This!' 'Shout' and 'Tears of glory' which seemed to be my early faves.

Sorry, can't find much on youtube at all, maybe Stefan can find sounds for the three tracks I mention above?

Very early 80's sounding!

Very early 80's sounding!

 

 

I really had to do some googling to find out if this was a new recording or something that was recorded back in the 80's or early 90's. Definitely appears to be a current band, though.

 

I'm definitely not saying these guys are amazing or anything, but fans of that real pure 80's sound should dig some stuff here. I'm annoyed that's the only song available as there is some other much cooler riff heavy hard rock on board... shame I can't find any of those ones... :(

Well... I usually dig your choice of music, Geoff but I have to say this one's a weak one.

 

I've rated it a solid 74%, but as noted, it's not that I really love the thing... just thought it might appeal to a lot of people here due to it's sound/style. It won't rate a mention at the end of the year... but it's cool for what it is. :)

    • Decent song but a bit too "Eurovision" for me. Maybe it'll grow on me.
