For me at the moment this is Dead End by the Newlydeads!
I know a lot of you will put this band on the other list and it's definitly not for people who are only fans of the first Faster Pussycat album, but if you're slightly into Violent New Breed from Shotgun Messiah, the murderdolls, wednesday 13 or Marilyn Manson mixed with a fair dose of songwriting and LA then this is the record for you!
<font size="4" face="Arial">Wow, I did not know that, nor did my buddy Larry who is a pretty big GLU fan. He grew up with and was pretty good friends with their touring drummer Adam Kary. He's now pretty bummed out, thanks Bill.Quote:

thanks Bill.
here is what little press blurb there was about it:
"David Passed away on October 17th at 5:15am due to internal bleeding of a undiagnosed tooth infection that bled into his right lung as he slept. He slipped into a coma, and dispite the efforts of the doctors, his immune system was too weak. We will never forget you David. An underrated musician, with an ironic end. David Reilly was 1/2 of the band God Lives Underwater, and was recently working on his first, finished solo album, but passed away due to internal bleeding."
were they from Chicago? for some reason i thought they were. maybe its cuz i saw them for the first time with KMFDM so i just tied them to Chicago as well.
Nope, they're PA boys. My buddy grew up in PA and moved here in high school.
Ahhh, PA boys, no wonder they were so good =)

Prick - Prick. i got a sampler outside a show one night with the tune Animal on it. that song was good enough to pick up the cd one day when i saw it for $1 in a used store. turns out that Animal is the weekest track on the cd. fans of the heavier side of Bowie would enjoy Prick but be warned, his new one is not good.
God Lives Underwater - Empty. i had their GLU EP and enjoyed it but that was nothing to what Empty was. a classic cd from start to finish. Unfortunately their next release Life In The So-Called Space Age was a bomb. RIP David Reilly (he died due to internal bleeding of a undiagnosed tooth infection that bled into his right lung as he slept. He slipped into a coma.)
Marvelous3 - ReadySexGo. while on a business trip i came across this for $1 at a record exchange and having heard the name before i figured i would grab it for the long ride home. amazing album. best thing Butch has ever done, period.

Live the hype!*g*
I really liked the Vain - Move On It album & still do. That really struck a chord with me personally. Off the top of my head, it's my favourite US record in that genre.
I also bought the Skin N Bones album with all the boots on the cover for the cover alone & was suprised that they had some good things going on. That would have been about 1991 in Our Price in Bath. I remember the girl I was with at the time picked it up & said "They've got boots like yours" so I bought it! We went back to her room & she thought I was a musical genius because I was guessing the style of the tracks before we played them. Not hard with that record, "Cover Me with Roses" is clearly going to be the ballad & "Out With The Boys" the anthem-y rocker. It wasn't hard. Good tunes though.
Can't think of any others in this genre right now.
<font size="4" face="Arial">My favorite album ever. Nice choice.Quote:

For other albums, there's WAY too many to name. D.A.D.-Everything Glows, Mozart-Paris Is Dying, Orphan Punks (sorry Ash, wasn't really expecting much)-Running With Scissors. Beat Angels-Red Badge. There's more, but again, way too many to mention.
Stone roses s/t did'nt want to like it but could'nt help it. Found out later Johnny T was one of Squires hero's and they were huge Clash fans.

<font size="4" face="Arial">Great call!!! I love that friggin' album, but I hate that SOB!Quote:

Lillian Axe's Love and War's huge, melodramatic
production sounded cool when we first heard it.
In retrospect, all that reverb now sounds pre-
posterous.
With the CD drive on my stereo bust, I've been
rooting through the dusty boxes of tapes.
Start-the-day morning tunes over the past few
weeks include:
KISS - Double Platinum. All the early stuff. 'She'
still sounds good. I'm convinced Paul Stanley's
gay, so it's impossible to take any of the lyrics
serious - ditto, Simmons.
Adam Ant - Wonderful. Rubbish. Written by a man
in recovery but still on the edge, which is what
he was.
House of Lords - S/T. The happy memories it evokes
are better than the actual music, I think. The
album doesn't gel at all - like 'No Rules' it
sounds like it was written over a long period.
Michael Monroe - S/T. Only because I thought it
was the Jerusalem Slim tape. Hanoi/Monroe's watery
sub-Stones R&B has never done anything for me.
Burn:Cycle - Soundtrack. The trippy, trancy, electro
soundtrack to a Philips CDi game (remember those?)
which sold about 3 copies. Absolutely ace! Perfect
mood music for 7:30am.

Lillian Axe? sounds like a dinner lady

<font size="4" face="Arial">which Monroe release are you talking about D? the only one that i even think about listening to these days is Nights Are So Long, the rest haven't seen play time in yearsQuote:

The new Story of the Year cd - In the Wake of Determination is quickly burning up my personal charts.
Great driving music to speed to!
I never knew anything of the band Kilswitch (no, not Kilswitch Engage), and then I picked up their cd 'Freestyle...the kilswitch demos' out of interest and it blew me away. Like a cross between Skid Row, Alleycat Scratch, with the chunky baseline of Bang Tango.
Their 2nd was wasn't as good (uppercut), but that first one is one of my favourite cds of all time.

Great photography, great singles, but the rest
conforms to the old Roth adage: 'Most albums have
about 3/4 good songs on them at best - the rest
is just fodder.' Personally I don't believe
this; 'Leather Boyz...' is all fodder. [img]wink.gif[/img]

D'molls (Debut black and white cover with the legs) I had only heard 777 and thought they were a religous band, hearing the disk they became one of my favorite bands why didnt they release "All I Want" is beyond comprehension.
Demolition 23
Guess most people here are familiar with this record, but for those who aren't it was the band started by Mike Monroe, Sam Yaffa and Nasty Suicide (came in a bti later, but still...) of Hanoi Rocks.
They released 1 teriffic album in the mid 90's and me and a bunch of mates drove to Goteborg to see them play the White Corner bar.
A great show and an album that totally blew me away and still does today
Princess Pang - s/t
I bought their first (and only?) LP just 'cause i liked their look and i found some good STONES flowerd tunes on it!!!
