Forgotten Hard Rock Albums: MONSTER "Through The Eyes Of The World" (1995)


Recommended Posts

Posted

Another in my series of forgotten hard rock albums. 

Many probably have never heard this killer album. Featuring the rhythm section of killer underrated band MALICE, Mick Zane (guitars) and Mark Behn (bass) and the drumming of an ex-Black 'N Blue member Pete Holmes, this was a blind purchase for me. While containing it's fair share of fillers, the standout tracks really make this a must have.

Some of my favs:

Like you, I took a chance when I see some of players who played on it, so I bought.
I don't play it regularly, but I can say it that I have got it.

I picked this one up many years ago after hearing 'One Night' which reminded me of Lynch Mob.Good Max Norman production job too. RIP Mick Zane.

A balance album but not really great. I like 'Spirit of The Night', 'South Side Billy', and 'Get Over It'. Plus point is I don't see any crappy songs at all.

77% from me

Funnily enough, I rated this one 78% so about the same. That's a good score for a good album. 'Fire in your eyes' and 'Get over it' are my picks.

All I ever heard was how this was a "legendary" album, there wasnt a bad second on the CD, so I was expecting like some Blue Tears type shit, IMO anyways, and I mean this disc was good, perhaps a tad above good, but certainly not legendary in any instance, and I listened to it over and over, nothing jumped out at me, like when I first heard that H.E.A.T. album, with the new dude, or Brother Firetribe, shit just clicked, songs got stuck in my head, riffs got into my sub conscience, and I never really thought there was a stand out track, this is just MO of course, i'd give this a 6 or 7

Oh sorry, I mean a 70% maximum

Thanks for posting this. I hadn't heard of it and in listening to it the chops are all there and I really like it. 

 

Can I have it as I'd rate it much higher. ;)

    • For real! I'm definitely grateful for Spongebob introducing me to this banger!
    • Well it definitely motivated Spongebob  
    • I love motivational hair metal songs, so I figured I'll create a thread for people share them. Here are a few of my favorites: "Don't Surrender" by Mercury   "Overnight Sensation" by Firehouse   "Sweet Victory" by David Glen Eisley and Bob Kulick    
    • New album out January 24. From Pride & Joy Music: UK guitarist and songwriter Neil Fraser previously has worked/recorded with the likes of TEN, Rage of Angels/Ged Rylands (Tyketto), Tony Mills (TNT, SHY). Trishula started out as Neil’s solo project back in 2015.    Fraser had previously worked with Welsh vocalist Jason Morgan in the band Rage of Angels, so Jason was Neil’s first choice for lead vocal duties when it came to assembling the band members for Trishula. It took another 4 years of song writing from 2015 before the debut album ‘Scared to breathe’ was released in 2019. Whilst recording the debut, the UK based group were joined by Neil’s long-time friend and MAGNUM keyboard player Rick Benton and bass player Dan Clark from the Rebecca Downes Band. One year after the release of the debut, Trishula released their second album ‘Time waits for no man’ in 2020. It was at this point that Neil Ogden (DEMON) became their new drummer. A third album, ‘We all fall down’, was released in 2022.   The brand new fourth CD is titled ‘Becoming the enemy’ and the first one to be released on the band’s new label Pride & Joy Music.
    • My introduction to the band...way back when  
    • Well that took far too long to kick in for me,its ok and he has an amazing voice...just wish he'd get a great song given to him again  
    • This one popped up in my rotation today as it does frequently because I fucking love this track.  It contains killer lines like, "From the pale lips of the youth who lay", "After dark is the game I play" and "I hit the sack when the Sun's coming back". I've also added a video of an acoustic performance I came across years ago by some young "buskers", which is AWESOME! I wonder how many of you know this classic from the lines above before clicking on the "hidden content"? I would guess most.      
    • Robban Back was their studio drummer
