Comment: Every time I go back and listen to "Slave to the Grind" I am reminded that this is the greatest hard rock record ever made. Think I am kidding? I'm not. It is a tour-de-force from start to finish. The songs are killer, the guitar in your face, the vocals unreal. It does not get any better than this for this genre. Whatever your opinions of Skid Row or "hair metal", it doesn't matter. It is that good. If you don't own it; you need to!
Summary: If you dig this crunch fest....also check out the new Fozzy!

Comment: Awesome CD

Heavy, yet melodic......perfect combination and very unique at the time. I highly recomend the new Fozzy All That Remains Reloaded CD/DVD if you dig Skid.

Comment: Skid Row was just another Glam/Pop/Hair-metal band (as heard on their 1989 eponymous debut album), but then in 1991, to keep up with the overnight popularity of Grunge/Alternative Rock, Skid Row reinvented themselves as a hard-rock-esque type band and made thrashier, more rocking songs than on their debut. The only trace of Glam Metal on this is the ballad here and there ("Quicksand Jesus", "Wasted time"), "Mudkicker", "Get the _ _ _ _ out" and the title track "Slave..." are the loudest, most thrashy songs on here.

"Slave to the Grind" is a GOOD BUY, WORTH THE PRICE, and is SKID ROW"S greatest relese. the 12 tracks of this album are what got me back into a few Glam Metal bands.
Summary: Top Notch!

Comment: There's little question that this is Skid Row's masterpiece. Much heavier than its predecessor, 1989's Skid Row, and with less connection to the generic "hair metal" label, Slave offers up a compelling piece of anti-formulaic rock n' roll and metal. There's really something for everyone here, be it the metal anthem that is "Slave to the Grind," the groovy "Creepshow" or some of Skid Row's best ballads (and Sebastian Bach's best vocal performances) in "Quicksand Jesus," "In a Darkened Room," and "Wasted Time." Twelve tracks, and I'm a big fan of ten of them. An almost perfect album!

Comment: This plus Skid Row's intro cd are all you need for a collection of Skid Row. One of Metal's top 10.
