Arazmo - Notice To Appear (CD)

The American band ARAZMO, named after guitarist Dave Arazmo, and their rather hard-to-find 1994 album "Notice To Appear" sound very much like typical 1980s hair metal acts, despite the release date. They deliver a sound somewhere between POISON, CINDERELL and WARRANT. Recommended tracks include "Sweet Revenge" and "Hot Dog Girls," the latter featuring a distinct VAN HALEN vibe. They are a somewhat obscure but high-quality band that need not shy away from many competitiors, standing out particularly thanks to their above-average songwriting. (MS)
