Tna - Self-Titled – Reissue (CD)

Southern sleaze metal rockers TNA hail from Memphis, Tennessee, and formed around 1985. TNA includes guitarist Wayne Swinny, who is better known today as the guitarist for the rock band Saliva. This album was recorded between 1989 and 1990 and the guys played the same kind of music as Bulletboys, Kix, Motley Crue and Tesla. There are 12 tracks on the album, some really nice rocking numbers and ballads. The best song on the album is the fantastic It‘s Over, which could have been a great ballad at the time, with a chorus that is very AOR-ish. I‘m Already Gone is a groovy rock number that has traces of Tesla and Kix. The production is good and sounds very 80s, but if you like sleazy hard rock, TNA is a band to listen to. A good album.
