But I didn't like the songs as much as <I>Eat 'Em and Smile</I>, and I thought the way they nearly mixed Sheehan's bass off the record was criminal.<BR/><BR/>I really liked Blue Murder's debut, but the second offering was not in the same league. You might remember only the single from it, "Itchicoo Park" (or something like that ... I haven't picked up the CD more than once or twice since buying it years ago).<BR/><BR/>-- davidDavid Amulethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03758977878243268087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13852175.post-1144670455513972182006-04-10T05:00:00.000-07:002006-04-10T05:00:00.000-07:00Fred- A while back I wrote a thing about metal fas...Fred- A while back I wrote a thing about metal fashion mistakes and Raven's jockstraps over their pants was certainly included. <BR/><BR/>David- I didn't realize Blue Murder did a second album. I really liked their debut though.<BR/><BR/>Other albums I would add to this list are:<BR/><BR/>Black Sabbath-Born Again<BR/>Lizzy Borden-Visual Lies<BR/>King Kobra-Thrill of a lifetime<BR/>Metallica-$5.98 ep<BR/>Anthrax-State of Euphoria<BR/>Overkill-Under the influenceMetal Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18400759786407810475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13852175.post-1144641530142262182006-04-09T20:58:00.000-07:002006-04-09T20:58:00.000-07:00Strutter-I once read an article that sai something...Strutter-I once read an article that sai something like Twisted Sister tanked their career about five seconds into the video for Leader of the pack.<BR/><BR/>David-I agree with all of those that I have heard except Skyscraper.

Even worse looking back as it's the last thing done by the real G-n-R.<BR/><BR/>Phoenix-It doesn't seem to me that 1986 wasn't that long ago, but it was.<BR/><BR/>Fred-Hooks in you and Bring your daughter to the slaughter had no business being on a Maiden album.<BR/>Cold Lake was just a shockingly bad move.
