Dirty Rhythm / Hard As A Rock (1991)

Another one gem of the hair metal scene in the late 80's-early 90's. A band that could be huge back then. Dirty Rhythm were a hair metal band from Canada with a sound similar to Skid Row, XYZ and Hardline, but like so many bands of that golden hair metal era they faded away. They had a very talented vocalist, who in some tracks you can hear the S. Bach influences loud n' clear. A tight band with a strong musicianship and a very good production. The album is very rare and it's very difficult to find it or if you find it you have to pay a fortune. Highlights of the album is the whole album!!! All in all a very strong hair metal release with attitude, heavy-crunchy guitars, a very talented vocalist and some really super-cool tunes that are goona make you want more!! Buy it!!!

  3. Hey Axl, I have visited http://www.myspace.com/dirtylittlefingers1 , and I have to say that Dirty Little Fingers is a cool band, much more different than Dirty Rhythm but for sure a cool hard rock sound! It reminds me the third album of Bad Moon Rising-"opium for the masses" (a cool one too)
