Haha! Glad I could provide a valuable entertainment service.

Ult, got any Bang Tango? I recall you mentioning you need to write some reviews for them in a Bang Tango thread half a year ago or so.

I do have some Bang Tango. Have not reviewed them yet.

Nice.
Got any more glam/hair/sleaze you still have to review?
Also, what do you think of Trixter? Yes, some of their stuff was pretty weak and laughable, but some of their lesser known songs are actually pretty decent pop metal:

Not for me, their music was very melodic and infectious especially on the first two albums. The first one was a bit too polished I admit, but the follow up corrected that IMO.

Eh, ult, just reading your Cinderella reviews, and I see you call Poison and Warrant crap in the review for Long Cold Winter...And knowing you changed your mind about those bands, I thought you might want to redo that review.

Anyway, how about John Waite? Yes, we all know Missing You, but other than that, he had some heavier, guitar driven AOR rockers as well - some are even heavier than most Bad English songs (now, granted, they weren't really heavy at all, but them being a hair band and Waite being most known for a pop hit, one might expect the opposite).




I bet the second one will be familiar to you, even if you haven't heard it ever before.

This has nothin' to do with the May update but I did notice a goof on the main index page with the alphabetical list of band names... "Betsy" (formerly known as "B*tch") is misspelled "Besty"

...which rhymes with "Chesty," and that describes Betsy pretty well, so maybe it was a Freudian slip on your part?

I already brought that up...And although it seems most of the mistakes got corrected, this one seems to have been forgotten.

If we keep pestering Ult about it, he'll get to it.

Thanks. Sorry, missed that one I guess. Will fix it.

What about Pat Benatar? A lot of her stuff is more on the pop side of things (ie, love is a battlefield), but she also has lots of heavy songs like all fired up and fire and ice.

Hey, Scott. I know you like Napalm Death, but I don't see a review for Harmony Corruption on the site yet. That's a great album. Any plans on reviewing that album any time soon?

IIRC, ult mentioned in a thread for an update a few months ago he's got some of her CDs, but has to review them yet...He even added a link for her page (which doesn't exist yet) in the Betsy review.

Ult, when are you going to review that The Mars Volta CD you have, btw?

Don't know when I'll get to Mars Volta. I have to dig that one out of a box. I really just need to get on the ball with Pat Benatar.

An error I see in your review for Sepultura's Beneath the Remains...

Quote :

"Beneath the Remains" is fantastic thash album!

It should read "Beneath the Remains is a fantastic thrash album". Which it is, by the way. One of my top five favorite thrash metal albums ever.

Ult, you forgot to add the link for Izzy Stradlin to the index.
