Wam bam thank you glam! I think you’d agree this is as glam as it gets. This is Pretty Boy Flloyd’s debut release, which came out in ’89 and was their most successful, in terms of sales.
There is nothing here that is gonna change the world, all you get is every night is party night and that’s okay with me as sometimes music should be about having fun. The title track opens up the album and if you’re not singing along to this by the end your fun muscle needs a tune up. Seriously though, it’s a great song with a huge hook and chorus. A power pop glam mash up is next with the single Rock N’ Roll Is Gonna Set The Night On Fire. Again, good time party rock n’ roll.
It’s ballad time next with Wild Angels, and I guess if Poison can do it…! 48 Hours is back to the glam slam pop template, which I guess Kiss pioneered way back in the day. Toast Of The Town wraps up Side 1 and it’s more of the same, really simple riff and groove with the big sing along gang chorus with lots of “Hey Hey Hey’s” thrown in.
Side 2 is basically a carbon copy of Side 1. The best of which is Your Mama Won’t Know, a fun uptempo glam pop punk three minute blast.
When glam is good like this it’s fun, but there are too many wannabes who give the whole scene a bad rap. If you want nothing more than a fun record, then this is for you.
8/10 from The Grooveman.
