These guys released a handful of rockin' records, 'Blow...' is probably the best of the lot. It's an overlooked record that smokes, Whiteman's vocal delivery takes us back to the raw and meaty days of Vince Neil and Dee Snider, and coupled with a pretty heavy rock sound, 'Blow...' really does destroy fuses. I'm hearing a hot-bed of Twisted Sister, old Crue, AC/DC, and a steady collection of decent cuts, the ballad 'Don't Close Your Eyes' is one of metal's most underrated. This isn't just sleaze rock by numbers, far from it, indeed a collection of stompin' metal tracks that enabled the band to carve a half-decent career which took them into the mid '90s when this sort of stuff was considered prehistoric. Lookin' back however, I find myself endeared to 'Blow...' and more than happy to slap it on a good few times.
