Post your Hauls!

[mdmatt4ever]

Was absolutely stoked to hear their cover of Skid Row's Walk With a Stranger - a song I've been seriously wanting do a proper recording of for years. How's the rest of the album?

if i'd have to compare it to the bands 2 older albums it more like their 2nd album HEAR but a little heavier and with a few modern touches. the single "tattoos and misery" is great. their cover of "walk with a stranger" is one of the best tracks on the album. i'd say there are 3-4 more good tracks on the album so half of it is really good. the rest is pretty stock early 90's hard rock with a few modern twists.

not as catchy and hook filled as the 1st trixter album. not as jaw dropping of a change as their 2nd album (i thought HEAR was so far beyond the first album from a songwriting stand point that i would have almost believed it was a different band). like i said its their heaviest and worth a purchase imo if you like the progression from the self titled to HEAR. this sounds like the natural next step after HEAR but it took 20 years to get made

Cool

Loved Jorn's cover of Ride Like the Wind.

Really? I mean it's not bad, but Saxon did the definitive one in 87. 'Ride To The Guns' it's the best of the album IMO.

A Canadian band called Speeed did a really good one on their 1999 album as well.
