I can't believe this is a 1997 release! It is so refreshing to hear straight ahead kickass rock n roll again! When you realize MONSTER consists of two members from MALICE and one from BLACK & BLUE...and produced by Y&T's Max Norman...you KNOW it has to be fantastic! Lots of flashy lead guitar, clean, screaming vocals, solid bass and hard driving drums make MONSTER the album to check out this year! If only the '80's could have a rebirth like this, I would be a happy boy!
