Forgotten Hard Rock Albums - Midnight Angel - Addiction (1999)

[AlphaMale]

Everyone knows. The mid to late 90's sucked balls if you were a melodic hard rock fan. It just wasn't cool anymore to be hair metal. But somehow, someway, MIDNIGHT ANGEL got a hair metal album released called ADDICTION. 

Instantly became one of my favorites from 1999.

Good stuff. The only song found on YouTube:

Killer music!

Vocals, not so much.

Not too bad, but if he was just slightly better it may not have been a forgotten album.

I come across many albums with Killer music, but the vocals aren't quite on par.

It's a shame and very annoying.

Here’s a few others that I found on YouTube. I have their full album.  It’s ok but there was nothing that really knocked my socks off.  I got it cheap at the time so it was a decent pick up.  I haven’t played it in a while and it’s in storage now.  If I remember correctly, it ran short for having 10 songs (30 some minutes long).

in 1999 though, this was way better than the music at the time.

Nice..this is new to me..sounds pretty good...as pointed out the vocals aren't amazing but not that bad.

I'm not 100% sure, but I think those first two clips are from a different band.

No.  It’s the same band.  Here’s an article showing the band reformed in 2018 and released one of the videos.

I also found a Facebook page for them (not sure if it is official) that has all the videos.

Also, if you look at the YouTube videos, the guy who posted the first two is the bands lead singer (Damian MonteCarlo).
