Germany’s Gamblin’ Crew claims that ‘poserrock’ is their passion, but the problem with poser rock is that it is usually style over substance and that is almost the case with Lovehounds (From Hell!!!). There are some cool moments here, and the band does have a sense of humor (the cover has a warning that states “parental advisory: explicit womanizin'”), but there are too many flaws to make this a worthwhile purchase.

A Trashy, Glam, Goth band that attracted a great deal of attention for themselves on the London club scene at the turn of the 90s. The band was founded during 1989 in London by American guitarist Steve Von Saint, a former members of ANGELS IN VAIN, an act that spawned L.A. GUNS and FASTER PUSSYCAT bassist Kelly Nickels and Roger Lane and Danny Discipline of THE THROBS.

They say time heals all wounds, but in the case of North Carolina’s Crank County Daredevils the wounds have festered in the three years since their last album Livin’ In The Red. In that time rumors circulated of the band’s demise, but instead they kept plugging away, this time with a new guitarist and drummer.

Erotic Suicide is a band that had it all…a nasty, sleazy-yet-glammed-up sound, above average musical talent, “the look”, great songs…everything a band could need…EXCEPT a record deal!  Coming out of Oklahoma City, record deals were few and far between for bands, regardless of how much they looked and sounded like the best of the Sunset Strip.  Add in the fact that it was 1993 and hair bands were all but dead, and Erotic Suicide was left basically only one option:  do it themselves.  And that is what they did with Abusement Park, the best Sunset Strip sleaze album you have never heard…and that didn’t come from the Strip!

Kiss (more often styled as KISS) is an American hard rock band formed in New York City in January 1973 by Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons.

Germany’s Syzzy Roxx were formerly known as Gamblin’ Crew and describe their sound as ‘poser rock’. My first thought is that these guys are kind of amusing. For a start they have a rather, errmm, unusual look (for want of a better description) and whether intentional or not, the bio on their official site is quite funny. For example part of what they say about their growth or transformation from Gamblin’ Crew to Syzzy Roxx goes like this, “the Crew was yet accused of just honouring the numerous variations of penetration, Syzzy Roxx go further than that. Political topics are being examined, such as the hostage-taking by full bosomed aliens” and so forth. Maybe it’s their sense of humor or maybe something got lost in translation. Either way, it’s all sounds quite odd but you can’t help but laugh.

From the Nordic contemplative Oldenburg come SYZZY Roxx, which as GAMBLIN’ CREW were on the road by 2005 and now have their second album under a new banner at the start. And I had not heard the disc thousand times, I would be sure to have inserted a classic from the hairspray era.
