And we turn to one of the better of the late 80's/early 90's "hair" bands. Despite the pretty-boy image of Sebastian Bach, the band had a ferocious groove, one that got harder with each successive album.
It would have been easy for Skid Row to make another version of their debut album each time around, but they worked harder and in fact got progressively better with each release. SLave to the Grind was a huge step from the S/T album, and Subhuman Race was even better than that. Unfortunately, by the time Subhuman Race was released, grunge had taken over, and the Skid Row album had more or less been relegated to obscurity. I think it's the band's best. Unfortunately, it would be Bach's last, as he would break away for a so-called "solo" career.
Here is a very good sounding FM show from Japan. You can tell the band loves playing here because they have a great energy and Sebastian frequently speaks to the crowd in Japanese.
