5.0 out of 5 stars Turbo-Kickass Rock 'n' Roll, April 16, 2004

This review is from: Bad Sneakers and a Pina Colada (Audio CD)

This disc is awesome! I can't say enough about it. These guys blast through hardcharging originals without once letting up - tuneful, melodic, heavy - it's all there. They have some killer "ballady-type" songs on here, notably "Liberation" and "Someone Special" (usually I can't stand these kinds of tunes, but on this album they're some of the standouts). There isn't a bad song on the album. If you're a fan of Guns 'n' Roses' "Appetite for Destruction", guitar shredder Tracii Guns & L.A. Guns or any of the good Sunset Strip rock bands, you really gotta' get this album.

From Sweden comes the band L.A. could not produce in the 80's. Hardcore Superstar is everything Poison, Warrant, hell...even Motley Crue could never have been. This is the first band to capture everthing Hanoi Rocks created since Gn'R. While those bands may say they were never trying to recreate the magic of Hanoi....they should have....they may still have a career....What H.S. does is exciting. It music that is fun, energetic, and full of hooks...It is a shame that this album comes out in this era, as they will probably be lost on the newer generation of music listeners.....you won't hear drum machines, loops, or samples here....just honest, aggressive, rock n' roll....this album is to glam what 'white blood cells' is to the garage. This album won't make you angry, it won't make you cry, it won't make you hate your parents, teachers, that guy that beat you up in third grade.....it will make you smile, and remember that rock n' roll should be a fun escape....
