Vixen - Vixen (1988)


I admit it, this is possibly the cheesiest entry on the blog...even cheesier than Def Leppard's 'Hysteria', for many metal guys in '88 Vixen were four, hot rock chicks...unfortunately the album lacked any kind of beef, the band firing out blanks except for the keyboard laced rock anthem 'Cryin', the watery 'Edge Of A Broken Heart' and more uptempo groove of 'Hellraisers'. It's all predictable hairy metal with a lush edge, but I've known thrash maniacs who purchased this as some kind of sexual connection to the band. I couldn't see it myself, Vixen were far from head turning material whether in the form of music or looks but they are here now...deal with it.
