L.A. GUNS

We need to give Roxx Gang credit for sticking to their guns when most of their Sunset Strip peers either changed their sound in a vain attempt to go grunge or disappeared entirely. It's cool to see an straight-up hair metal/ sleaze rock album released in 1996, that is as memorable as Things You've Never Done Before. There are some really fun, hard rockin' tunes though, like Time Bomb, Be Your Man, and Shame on Me. A super solid hair metal release that should please those of you who still spin those L.A. Guns and Jetboy albums on a regular basis.

5.0 out of 5 stars just as good as the debut..,
this cd was written with the original band from 1st cd , and it`s a great underrated cd in my eyes , bought it in 95 and still jam to it , catchy hooks, riffs galore and a bit more blues to it not so one dimensional.. but to the piont of fun tongue and cheek lyrics and awesome solos great follow up to a band that didn`t get the recognition it deserved , just give a listen to "stone dead drunk again" , and you be into the whole disc , it is fun party rock at its best...

Soon after being dropped, Skid sold his car to finance a third album. Lets Rumble was recorded in a few days and the band went on a 9 week US club tour. BMG picked up the album and released it in the UK, which was followed by a 3 week UK tour. However, the label didn't want to release the album in the US. The band sent the album to a number of labels, but with the rise of Grunge their style of rock was out of fashion and there was no interest.
