BULLETBOYS - Rocked & Ripped


Well, we won't spend much time talking about this album. The first thing that i can say after a couple of listenings is that this album sucks, actually i don't know if this is a real album or a demo. Production is deplorable, is not dynamic and it seems that every instrument and voice go their separate ways while sometimes sound is saturated.
The selection of songs to cover is real good but the final product is real bad just take a listen to Faithfully, sure this is a very difficult to version song cause is almost perfect but when you start to listen this "amateur" piano and Torien screaming instead of singing, as he does in Living On A Prayer, you only want to shoot your head. I'll See You In My Dreams version is a piece of shit bigger than a castle and Broken Wings... i could never believe that such a fantastic song could sound so bad. The only two versions that aren't crap, though add nothing, are Free Fallin' by TOM PETTY and Balls to The Wall by ACCEPT.

In summary, it would have been a better decision not to release this album.
