Hidden Gem
Raging Slab had a small window in the early 90's where they almost broke through. I happened to discover them and became a fan. Their quintessential work is "Dynamite Monster Boogie", which I would recommend to fans of all music genres. Since that work, I have tried to get my hands on "everything Slab" including this. So, how can I be "helpful" for those that have stumbled upon this and are relying on customer reviews? Yes, it's Southern Rock, you get the funkiness like Skynryd but it's much RICHER. The lyrics are much better and there is a bit of edginess. It's a bit of "stoner music", but that shouldn't be a knock... the music is like ordering a chicken-fried steak with mashed potatoes and gravy.
Pedal to the metal rock and roll
All that can be said about these guys (and girl ;)) is that they simply rock.
Personally, I've never cared much for southern-fried boogie stuff, but this band just has some kind of rock magic. If you like any hard rock music at all, you owe it to yourself to check them out. Try out the clips and treat yourself to maximum rock and roll the way it's supposed to be played.
A real gem in a world full of coal nuggets.
Greatly Overlooked
I love every one of Raging Slab's cds, but this being the first that I heard, it had a huge impact.
Great, great band with catchy and heavy hooks, and fantastic songwriting and melody to boot. Not only can they play sludgy riffs similar to Bad Co., Nugent and Sabbath, but also throw in some tasty Southern & Country infuences in their playing. They really do have an original and identifiable sound that is all their own. Greg's vocals & guitar playing, plus Elyse's slide guitar are a killer combo.
They are still playing up to now, but wish they would tour the USA again.
