This anxiously awaited release ROCKS!!!!! It picks up where "Leather Boyz With Electric Toyz" left off. This is true Hollywood Glam Rock, the way it used to be. Ex Big Bang Babies guitarist Keri Kelli is a great addition to the Pretty Boy Floyd line-up. This disc is 5 cutz with gutz. Don't miss this one!!

If you liked "Leather Boys", you will like this one. Great hooks, only 5 songs but it's great to hear something new from this band since they haven't put out anything since 1991. Glam is back!

The highlight on this CD, for me, is PBF's version of Big Bang Babies' "Everybody Needs A Hero".

I've always wondered if PBF wrote "Junkie Girl", or if it is a cover or something, because there's an episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer where some band is playing a very, very slowed-down version of it at the Bronze.

I digress. Good album. Buy "Leather Boyz" first, and then buy the rest! Also check out Shamless, which includes members of PBF, Big Bang Babies, and Tuff.

If you like the Poison Look What The Cat Dragged In or the first few Motley CD's then you will probably like this one. Pretty Boy Floyd didn't sell out to the pressure to become more like Limp Bizkit or Pearl Jam, they just kept on making the music that they liked. I think this a great CD for anyone who likes Glam Metal or a great CD if you want to hear something that is a little different than what you hear on the radio today. There is no chance in hell you are going to hear songs from this one on your local rock station. :)
