CD Reviews
Forgotten album by Slade
Peterton | 12/07/2001
(4 out of 5 stars)
"Well, it's sad this album is almost "forgotten" by Slade fans and no-fans alike, because Its their heavier record ever. Not a piece of clealry commercial music here, just straight ahead hard rock. Noddy Holder's vocals are aggressive and strong, the rest of the band is in an uncommon fast pace, and the album sounds fresh even nowadays. THis was their first RCA record, and I recommend it strongly."
You won't sit down while listening to this album

"I think "Til deaf do us part" is one of Slade's finer efforts as well as their harder. "Lock up your daughters" with its melody and groove is without doubt a highlight in Slades's career, and the same goes for many of the song on this album. If you like earlier Slade, I bet you gonna like this album too, and if you just want some happy, non-serious party music with a lot of hooks - this album is perfect!"

"I think this is the best SLADE album ever. It comes behind of ALIVE II, only."

"i picked this up in 1999 at a local record store because the cover with the band picture made me think of another band i like alot named jackyl. jackyls album push comes to shove cover reminded me of this so i bought it. once hearing it i loved it and went out and started collecting all the slade records, only to learn that i had really been into this bands video run run away in 1984. and just about the same time as i got this record i went to a club locally and saw quiet riot who were the main band that got me into music way back in the early 80's so the slade connection was really strong there. funny how that all works out, but overall this album is great not a bad song on it noddy has the ultimate rock voice long live slade in re issues if thats the only way and this album needs one. it breathed new life into my music listening in 1999, just like jackyl did in 1994 when i picked up push comes to shove. the early 1990's were rather boring for music that i liked so jackyl woke me up , then a few years later in a lull i picked up slade and the same thing happened. anyways have fun listiening to slade if you get the chance pick up this record or any of their other albums"
