Best album NEVER recorded by Skid Row

Still love this album

Yes.

Sounds better than 75% of Skid Row's discography.

Never heard of this band but that's a cool tune.

I believe that's the ex-Rage Of Angels singer...Kivel Records release.

Shawn is right

Jim is being Jim

The singer doesn't have the range or control of Sebastian and SKID ROW had two guitar players to fill in the holes. I like this cd but it has very little in the melodic hook department. Slik Toxic is the best SKID ROW clones around (IMHO) and saying that is even a stretch.

I'm being sincere. I thought the guitars sounded good for the style they were going for and the vox were effective. Yeah, it doesn't have the vocal range of Skid Row's high points but frankly neither does most of Skid Row's discography.

When doing a search for Pyn Siren, the 2nd result is Kmorg's site with his review...

it wasn't a dig brother, you always appear to be sincere. My comment about the range wasn't necessarily regarding the highs. The mids kind of have that overbearing trying to hard vibe to them that takes away from it sounding natural. The thing I like most about the guitar is the tone. It is beefy even though the rest of the mix is that usual high end tinny sort of stuff prevalent to the era.

This guy sounds a bit like Baz.

Been spinning this disc quite a bit this week and I have to agree with Mr. James here. Not a bad disc at all, but the singer doesn't have the range and is more abrasive than Baz, a 2nd guitarist could've helped beef things up and Slik Toxic did it better.

Still a decent album. The comparisons to Skid Row are still apt, even if they fall a little short.
