Free Music Notes for Slave to the Grind
Free Music Review: Holds up as a GREAT album
Hit: 5 Stars
I'm encouraged by seeing the other reviews of Slave to the Grind, and I'm glad to see I'm not alone in thinking this album survived the sunken "hair band" ship of its era. It really transcends the glam metal emblem it has unfairly been given. Almost 20 years later, I'd put up as one of the greatest records of the time, for sure.
I hadn't heard it for probably 10 years until I recently heard "Wasted Time" on Hair Nation (Sirius Radio) and immediately I was singing along to every note and really appreciating its greatness. Then I had to go listen to the whole album. Every track deserves its place on the record, and while some are better than others, the album as a whole is consistently solid. Even some of the 'deep tracks' (Quicksand Jesus, Riot Act, Mudkicker) are better now since they weren't played to death (Monkey Business, Slave to the Grind, Wasted Time) on radio/MTV. So they seem fresher and a lot of fun to listen to.
Also, it needs to be mentioned: the band really evolved and matured from their first record. You can almost feel that their hand was forced to make a more pop friendly record with their debut in order to get it produced (Youth Gone Wild, I Remember You). But after they were established, they let loose on what they felt "Skid Row" should sound like. Slave is a much more mature and emotionally real and raw is Slave to the Grind.
The top tracks for me are: Slave to the Grind, In a Darkened Room, Wasted Time, Quicksand Jesus, Riot Act (while my brain's still in-t-t-t-t-tact). But listen to the album start to finish for the proper effect.
