Later today I'll be checking out some new releases .........both released today

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

I've been hanging out for the Peterik / Scherer album since I found out about it. I've listened to that single every single day at least once. From the samples I've heard on Amazon, some of the songs were very promising '80s Survivor fare, although there seemed to be an awful lot of ballads. The sections they chose for the samples sucked though, so I don't know what I'll think of it.

Once I get it, I'll post my thoughts in the melodic rock thread where we shall reconvene!

That Peterik Scherer is going to be a hard one to rate Blob - the first two tracks are very competent (Peterik by numbers) but they make Cold Blooded sound like Damage Inc. I was hoping Cold Blooded would be a lighter/mid range track but it's sounding like it's one of the heavier ones .

I think I might do two ratings - one for cheesaholics and one for cheesophobics

Anyway.....will keep listening

Yeah, I do wish there were more of the harder rocking ones like that, but I really dig the corny '80s stuff that sounds like it belongs in the original Transformers movie too.
I've been skipping the ballads for now, but I'm enjoying the "rock" tracks a lot. They're so uplifting and I can't help but smile. I don't imagine it will be to anyone else's tastes here though.

Btw, the DTF term for cheesophobics is "forum member".

I've only ever heard Act III and love it. How does this compare?

edit - never mind - read it wrong. I was thinking Death Angel.

Still working my way through the obscure stuff from 1987. It would be easier if I was less of a stickler for detail when I work on something like this

But then I have also uncovered a good album or two that I wasn't aware of.

WTF is this?

I didn't know The Village People did a heavy metal album!

bl5150 · « **Reply #1878 on:** April 19, 2015, 06:58:30 PM »

No idea

But they were included on an album called The Best of German Heavy Metal in 1987 ,so a good researcher would be forced to take a listen

Here's another cool file photo of the band

That has to be absolutely one of the worst band photos I've ever seen!

My eyes hurt!

I can only imagine what they'd do to my ears..

I can't resist..
*goes to youtube*

I find a track called Sweet Fourteen.

FOURTEEN??? Really??

And yes, now my ears hurt as bad as my eyes!
