Stay Hungry, Don't Explode Only 10 tracks, but all are original studio versions, great sound quality, and for new fans, this is the perfect introduction to their music. This is a low-priced, high quality, well made "Best of" Twisted Sister cd. People forget that Dee Sinder and the band wrote some absolutely classic, concise, well crafted hard rock and heavy metal. Musically speaking, the band was a cross between Alice Cooper, Judas Priest, Saxon and AC/DC. Hard Rock anthems were the band's specialty, and they did them extremely well. All the big hits are here, plus a couple rockin' deep album cuts like "Bad Boys Of Rock & Roll", "Tear It Loose", and "Lookin' Out For #1". Sure, a couple more tracks off of the essential "You Can't Stop Rock 'N' Roll" album would have been nice, but this cd serves it's purpose well. It's a quick-fix dose of Twisted Sister, in all their 80's, high power, headbanging glory. . . "Blastin' fast and loud"!
Recommended!.
Great value for almost no money!!
By the way, Burn in Hell is one of the stupidest songs ever, even for a hair metal band!!. These songs are all great, and unless you're a total TS fanatic, this will be sufficient for your collection.
Horrible
This compilation is supposed to be a Greatest Hits. Twisted Sister were one of the biggest hair band is the late 80s. It's not. Sure it has Were Not Gonna Take It, The Price, and I Wanna Rock. But where is Were Gonna Make It, Burn In Hell, or Hot Love. Get rid of Leader of the Pack, Tear It Loose, and Lookin Out For #1. This album is OK for casual fans of Twisted Sister, but for diehard fans or anyone who has ever heard Burn in Hell, it will make you cry.
Not In To The Style,Just The Sound
Yes are a little odd looking,and yes make some decent catchy tunes. Twisted Sister,yes a band made fun of a good amount.
Wipe their image clean outta your mind and just listen to the songs. This is a reduced Twisted Sisters greatist hits compilation. Many people usually consider any album from a bargain bin a poor mans cd. This believe it or not is a really good album for less then 7 dollers,you can't complain you got scammed. Since you really didn't.
This is by all means not a good introduction to this band,but for people scavenging for a few good songs then yes just buy this. The most notable songs are easily the most spoken of songs,or
"We'er Not Gonna Take It".
Obviously it's a greatist hits for a reason though so if you are new to this band expect some other good hits like,"I Wanna Rock".
"Stay Hungry" and "Tear It Loose" are pretty cool too.
If you are'nt really into hair bands and loads of make up that doesn't mean this isn't for you. You more then likley enjoy atleast two or three tracks. As said earlier this is less then 7 dollars wich is half the reason you lack some other big songs. Don't expect much,but do expect some.
