4.0 out of 5 stars
Classic sounding riffomania,
By Music Fanatic (Bettendorf, IA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Behind the Eight Ball (Audio CD)
This is a very good album of traditional riff rock, in the style of the NWOBHM (even though these guys are American, I think). It's a mixture of Accept-style heavy guitars, Y&T-style songwriting, and a vocalists that sounds kind of like a non-gay Paul Stanley. However you describe it, it rocks. Highly recommended, quality metal. Get it!

Hard-hitting melodic rock,
By
This review is from: Behind the Eight Ball (Audio CD)
1989's Behind the Eight-Ball is the debut album from German rockers Thunderhead. Not quite Hollywood-style hair metal, and not as polished as their countrymen Bonfire, Thunderhead had a hard-hitting but still catchy and melodic, straightforward rock n' roll sound. Sort of like Y&T but with a raspier vocalist. Singer Ted Bullet actually sounds a lot like Demon frontman Dave Hill. It's not terribly original, but Behind the Eight-Ball is a very fun, very rockin' album that's sure to get your head nodding and your hand reaching to turn up the volume.
Thunderhead lasted long enough to release two more albums, but the alternative/grunge wave of the early `90s pretty much did them in. If you're a fan of straightforward, melodic rock n' roll, particularly the `80s variety, Thunderhead is a band that's well worth checking out, and Behind the Eight-Ball is the perfect place to start. |
