The Best of Slaughter [CD]

I purchased 'The Best Of Slaughter" for it is a decent overview of what this band offered for their brand of Metal in the early 1990's. Slaughter has been grouped into the Hair Metal genre, in my opinion that is fine, yet they are a more streamlined, commercially accessible, Metal band to me. My two favorite tracks are "Up All Night" and "Mad About You", these two songs do have an uplifting "let's Rock!" feeling and mood about them. I like all the songs, any ballad by Slaughter has for me, been ear friendly. Mark Slaughter has cool Arena Rock vocals, he obviously not only fronts the band, he is the focal point of this band. Overall, these tunes will do as they are supposed to, they will rock you with plenty of loud and heavy leads, riffs and melodic vocals. In my opinion, Slaughter played some good Rock & Metal in the early '90's. They may not have led the pack, however, they were a key part of it. There are no liner notes with this disc.

This CD has some great Slaughter songs. All of these songs are from best years in the early 90s. I would have like to see some band profile notes.
