Hooligan Stew - There Goes The Neighborhood (CD)

When the guys in the band are calling themselves Bobby Brooklyn (g), Matt America (v), Perris (d) und Vinnie Vegas (b) it's pretty obvious how they sound, isn't it? Glam and Sleaze Rock in the vein of MÖTLEY CRÜE, L.A.GUNS, POISON oder HARDCORE SUPERSTAR is at hand. "There Goes the Neighborhood" is (unfortunately) the one and only record of the Los Angeles-based Americans from 1993 and you can easily imagine how tracks like "Take My Money And Run" or "Someday Sadie" have worked on stage at the legendary Sunset Strip back in the day. You have to have in mind that the production is not up to date but neverthelesss, this album captures the spirit of a fantastic period of rock music. Great record! (MS)
