Vicious Rumors

[Up&Away]

Great American power metal band...the albums with Carl stand the test of time. Warball is pretty good.

Digital Dictator and Welcome To The Ball are really as good as it gets. The self titled had some monster material but I think there's also some songs where you can hear the Atlantic Records bigwigs breathing down their necks telling them to sound like Bon Jovi or something. Word Of Mouth just lacks energy overall and from what I've heard of the following couple of albums, the band had the classic 90s musical downhill. Warball was indeed pretty good but to me it sounds more like a James Rivera album than a Vicious Rumors album.

I liked Word Of Mouth as well...but yeah, not as much as the ones before it.

Something's Burning wasn't bad...I would like to have heard Carl's take on that album...

Never heard the other stuff until Warball...but I keep meaning to check it out...but I thought Warball killed...but yeah, James Rivera is so distinctive that it didn't have too much of a VR identity...
