Bomb Brigade
With this,the band's first album after resigning with Gain Records,and five album already into their career at the time,Hardcore Superstar truly arrives once and for all...over and over and over.With its plethora of clever and well thought out material,it's no wonder that this album was nominated for a Swedish Grammy and reached all the way up to a number twelve position on its native record charts. This self-title album from Hardcore superstar is,plain and simply,to cool to be missed!KICK ON THE UPPERCLASS,WE DON'T CELEBRATE SUNDAYS,and WILD BOYS are as good as anything that the sleaze rock movement has delivered to us in many years.Hardcore Superstar lets us,the listeners,know again and again that they are kicking ass and taking names with each of these songs.BAG ON YOUR HEAD and CRY YOUR EYES OUT are two more great examples of effective songwriting,superior performace,and proper execution. With every song here,Jocke Berg's vocals are a constant reminder of what it really means to be dirty and from the gutter,delivering the lyrical content of this band to us on a tarnished(just the way we want it to be)silver platter and letting us know the he means business. Forget about what Axl is doing these days,and don't bother to waste your hard earned money on...what was the name of that album again?Oh,yeah...Chinese Democracy.This album is the real deal!Hardcore Superstar spares nothing in establishing the fact that they are the real deal and that they are the band that should be recognized.
