Imagine if Alice Cooper, W.A.S.P. and Twisted Sister got together and had a child, then Slave Raider would be the product. I think the five-piece were on to a loser as soon as they begun but I find something deep down to savour here. chainsaw Caine is the mad, bad vocalist who comes across like a less fleshy Dee Snider, and he's backed by a theatrical rock show that never quite delivers the fireworks, Nicci Wikkid is the fiery femme fatale who backs up vocals and rips out the guitars alongside Lance Sabin, whilst Letitia Rae and The Rock make up the rest of the freakshow, but there's no real sustainable weight here, and lyrically it's pretty groggy Too much "brain - insane, rude - crude", c'mon guys I know it's 1988 but surely within the recesses of your minds you could find something abit more meaty to say ? The title cut is catchy, 'Make Some Noise' WILL remain on the tip of your memory for at least a week, but it's still a watered down Twisted Sister that fell at the first hurdle, but I'm giving it a mention here because someone out there in glam land may really take a shine to it.
5/10
