Fans of Hanoi Rocks and '80s punk glam goth with a Stones lick will worship this trash can sleaze of no fixed address or budget. It swaggers in its bubblegum pop rock splendour, and spits some venom with punkoid thrasher 'Caught (Red Handed)', but the big cut of the record is 'Moya's Coming Out Tonight', a crash diet anthem for the z-generation, loose, stinking of piss and born from the gutter. Terry's vocals turn this record into a Ramones type jig but with far more lipstick and attitude. Far more oomph than a gallon full of Hollywood acts, this doesn't try to be cool, it just is, even if it's got holes in its shoes as well as its arms.THE ALBUMS THAT CHANGED MY LIFE, AND WHICH EVERY SELF-RESPECTING METAL FAN SHOULD OWN. FROM BLACK METAL TO SLEAZE, FROM DOOM TO GLAM...ALL HAIL!
