Raging Slab [CD]

Digitally re-mastered reissue of the 1989 album from the NYC Hard Rockers. With flared strides, leather chaps and Stetson hats, the Slab - as they were affectionately tagged - made for one hell of a circus side-show. Originally released in 1989, their penchant for gritty '70's Rock, injected with full-on Hardcore urgency, made them the toast of the town, helping to secure a place in the soft white underbelly of Rock 'N' Roll's hall of fame a position that remains unchallenged to this day. Lynyrd Skynyrd meets Metallica was the mantle at the time; the uncanny ability to fuse the past with the future. Amazingly, it still rings true to this day. Rock Candy. 2009.
