Ways To Be Wicked - Музыка

Wicked Jester Is A Hard Rock/glam Metal Band From Los Angeles California USA That Was Formed In 1987. Wicked Jester Born In 1987. Three Guys From Illinois Shane D.D. And Rob That Relocated To Biloxi Mississippi To Join The Native Kenny Kweens And Became Big Fish In A Little Pond. The Stage Performances Were Incredible For A Band Of Their Indie Level Pyro Lightshows And Big Sound Systems. The Band Sold Their Self-Financed Recordings On Tape After The Shows With Great Success. In 1991 They Headed West To Los Angeles To Make A Noise But It Was A Little Too Late. Even Though They Sold Out Shows And Were Critically Acclaimed By The Local Rags The Band Called It Quits In 1993. An Independent Label Resurrected These Tapes A Couple Years Ago And Offered The Band To Release Their First Official CD Ever. Shane And The Boys Have Gone Back In The Studio And Re-Cut The Entire Record From Start To Finish. The Result Is "Royalty Sux" A Trip Back To The Sunset Strip Years. I Don't Know How The Band Used To Sound 20 Years Ago But I Can Assure You That Wicked Jester 2011 Really Rocks!
Compact Tight And Perfectly Oiled Musicianship And Better Than That The Artistic Production On This Album Is First Rate. Obviously Wicked Jester Is A Glam 'n Sleaze Band But They Aren't Limited To This Genre. On The Kick-Ass "Shot To The Head" Their Style Is More Close To Skid Row's 'Slave To The Grind' Than Anything Else. This Is A Melting Hard Rocker With Terrific Guitar Work And Big Drums. Or In "In Need Of Love" The Guys Are Very Melodic Yet Powerful Reminding Me L.A. Guns. Again Guitars Are The Stars Here. Very Commercial And Catchy Song. Twenty-Five Years Back In Time This Track Would Be A Hit. Lynch Mob's Influence Is Present On The Ferocious "Glitter In The Gutter" A Song With A Great Hook And A Monster Riff.
"Champagne In The Rain" Is A Radio-Ready Power Ballad Very Well Arranged And Performed. This Song Is Great Seriously One Of These Tunes That Stuck In You Forever. Of Course Wicked Jester Is Sleaze Too "Ways To Be Wicked" "Screamin´" And Specially The Filthy "Get Back M.F." What A Great Rocker! Are Clear Examples That This Band Has Learned The Lesson Perfectly. Maybe You Are Not Into Sleaze A Genre Many Times Considered Wrongly Inferior. Well If You Dismiss This Album 'cos The Title Or The Band Image You'll Be Committing A Big Mistake. "Royalty Sux" Is One Of Best Old School American Hard Rock Discs In Recent Years. It's Fresh Raw But Polished With Lots Of Attitude. There's Many Points That Makes An Album A Winner Good I Mean Good Songs Plenty Of Hooks And Melodies Great Vocals Killer Guitars And First Rate Production / Mix. "Royalty Sux" Has It All. A Really Explosive Rock 'N Roll Cocktail.
Crank It To 10 And Enjoy. read less
