Alright, I don't care if you heard it all and you've been from Van Halen to Dokken to Winger, you haven't heard real 80's hair metal till you check these guys out. I came across the tattooed love boys when I unearthed their vinal in the vault of a radio station i used to work at.
I thought the cover art looked cool so I gave it a spin on the radio. I didn't think much of it untill I started getting requests every week for the silly thing! And you know, after you start to listen to it, it really grows on you! The band is talented and their songs are an anthems to a the party world of yesterday. (or the day before) With tracks like Stikky Stuff, Who you bringing to the party, and Sweet Little ragamuffin, these guys really know how to rock it down! If that doesn't sell you, you can actually hear the lead singer moaning over the guitar solo in Stikky Stuff. Now if that isn't 80's hair I don't know what is~!
