Skid Heads - Skid Row

Subhuman Race - Skid Row

I think Motley Crue are a 'bad' band...its just that I don't think the world needs two of them - whilst perhaps heavy metal was in desperate need of a Skid Row on top form to drag it out of its current state of apathy. Yes, I know there are bands like Kid Rock, Papa Roach, Korn etc. etc. out there allegedly fresh new and pushing the frontiers, but I still remember bands like Mordred who were doing the same kind of thing 10+ years earlier... It seems that as heavy metal bands age, the temptation is to become increasingly heavier, a fact no more clearly represented than here by this band. Their first album was a pure piece of Bon Jovi-esque cock-rock, their ...

it. Slave To The Grind is a real powerhouse of rock music and one which goes down as one of my favourites of all time.

Slave To The Grind - Skid Row

the 80's, though for some reason they never achieved the kind of fame afforded to bands such as Guns N' Roses or Posion. Unfortunately, the things that Skid Row seemed to get the most publicity for, were falling out with Jon Bon Jovi, getting banned from Wembley Stadium by Brent Council, where they were asked not to play 'Get The F* Out' and played it anyway, and the time when Sebastian Bach had a bottle thrown at him while onstage, and hurled the bottle back, hitting an innocent spectator in the face. This album walks the fine line between hard rock and heavy metal, which is hugely satisfying for all those who yearn for something heavier than Bon ...
