Free Music Notes for Lillian Axe
Free Music Review: Amazing melodic rock album, now even better!
Hit: 5 Stars
Originally released in 1988, Lillian Axe's self-titled debut was one of the best (and until now, hardest to find) melodic hard rock albums of the 80's. The New Orleans band was worlds better than the average hair metal band, and had a highly melodic sound similar to bands like Hurricane, Winger and Enuff Z'Nuff.
You don't often see debut albums this strong. Most bands need a couple of releases to really nail down their sound, but Lillian Axe was in top form right from the start. I'm sure some of the credit for that goes to Ratt's Robbin Crosby, who produced the album, but you can't underestimate guitarist Stevie Blaze's songwriting skills. There are some first rate melodic rock songs on this album (and by some I mean pretty much all of them) that have insane melodies, awesome guitar work, and this great backing vocal harmonization (apparently by Kip Winger's brothers) that makes everything Ron Taylor sang resonate that much more.
If you're any kind of 80's rock/metal fan at all, the Lillian Axe debut is a must-have album. It's one of the best albums from the "hair metal" era, and holds up remarkably well 20 years later.
NOTE: Metal Mind reissued Lillian Axe in 2008, giving the album a much needed sonic upgrade. In addition to the digital remastering (which is amazing), there are a hefty 5 studio bonus tracks. I'm not entirely certain where the bonus tracks came from, but I suspect from their rougher sound that they must be the band's original demo songs. The reissue comes in a numbered digipack with expanded liner notes, and is limited to 2000 numbered copies. I didn't think it was possible for this album to get any better, but here's the proof!
