Dexateens - Teenage Hallelujah. This album kicks all kinds of serious ass. "Another really good Dexateens album" would be pretty high praise, but this is much better than that. Their best? I don't know, but I dig it big time.

Desolation Angels - Anthem. Along w/, e.g. Paul Pena and David Lasley, one of my all-time favorite obscure albums. Great singing, great harmonies and truly excellent song selection. Is that the producer's doing? I don't know but damn these songs are so well chosen and so well performed. For those who don't know, Desolation Angels were a one-off "supergroup" kind of thing (in the well known in the industry if not to the general public sense) featuring a bunch of great women singers including Karla DeVito, the Roche Sisters, Kit Hain & Deborah Berg.Great stuff.

Iron Maiden/ Killers

Anthrax/ Spreading The Disease
Ratt/ Original Time Coast Records EP
Ratt/ Out Of The Cellar
Quiet Riot/ Metal Health
Judas Priest/ Defenders Of The Faith
Judas Priest/ Screaming For Vengeance
Bowie/ Lodger
Screaming for Vengeance is a fucking classic, light years away from being bad 80s metal




The same can not be said for Defenders Of The Faith.

So true. I pretty much quit on them after SFV.

Excellent record. Beautiful in its simplicity. She's got a new album coming in the fall too.

It's my favorite Dexateens album. I think all their records are good to excellent, but Teenage Hallelujah is special.

Teenage Hallelujah is the filthiest album I've ever heard.

It never occurred to me to try and rank them before, but I tried and found it impossible. I'm pretty sure Red Dust Rising would be my number one whether we're talking personal favorite or objective best, but the problem comes up with the rest; it just don't seem fair to position any of them in last place.
E quindi uscimmo a riveder le stelle.

First spin in a few weeks. I really like Last of My Kind, Tupelo, Molotov, Hope the High Road, and Something to Love. Cumberland Gap, If We Were Vampires, White Man's world are all ok, but don't move the needle a ton. Anxiety and Chaos and Clothes don't work for me at all.

I guess it's still solidly in the "enjoyable" category, but it's not going to my make my year-end Top 10.

Yeah, I finally picked this up a week or two ago because I felt I had to. It is rather lame: album cover is terrible and the actual album is rather ho-hum. However, I like it better than SMTF easily. Last of My Kind, Tupelo, and Something to Love are my faves. After faint, tantalizing hits from Isbell's guitar- I am left wanting more. Guess I shall have to listen to old school live versions of Where the Devil Don't Stay to get my Isbell fix...
