Slaughter - Stick It To Ya (1990)

Genre: Glam Metal
Label Number: F2 21702

AllMusic Review by Alex Henderson
Commercial hard rock bands were still immensely popular at the end of the 1980s, when Slaughter (named after lead singer Mark Slaughter) recorded its debut album Stick It to Ya. Mining the same territory as "corporate" bands like Bon Jovi, Winger and Warrant, Slaughter soared to the top of the charts and sold millions of albums. Slick and not terribly original, much of this material comes across as very contrived and calculated. Nonetheless, hook-laden tracks like "Up All Night," "She Wants More" and "Burnin' Bridges" are fairly catchy. But as hot as Slaughter was at the dawn of the '90s, its success would prove to be short-lived when alternative rock became the rage a few years later.
