There's a song without a chorus and a song that is just a chorus but both come out pretty ok. The songs for the most part are very strong.
While of course you get your obligatory ballads and songs involving that we get some songs talking about mistreatment of native Americans, and the conflict going on in El Salvador at the time. You aren't getting just typical and predictable glam metal tales of partying, drugs and alcohol, attractive women, and heartbreak. Each song is very strong, melodic, punchy and most importantly fun. Glam metal albums are known for having songs that are weaker than the others and are also prone to having filler but honestly none of the songs here feel like filler and it feels like each and every one would translate well into a live setting and each and every one also feels like they have the same amount of effort put into them. This album has some of the darkest material of the bands career as well as some of their very best. The band was young and hoping to make it big and right here they show that they have all the tools to do just that. Its a very strong offering that shows the bands potential for greatness right off the bat. Lets dive into White Lion my friends!įight To Survive was the debut album from White Lion and what a debut this album was. White Lion of course has songs with those themes but they don't just soley focus is on shit like that. Its kind of refreshing to hear that rather than the ever so common things of girls and partying. White Lion definitely stands out a bit more from their peers as well as they were never afraid to get serious and talk about issues going on in the world. Vito Bratta is a God damn beast and one of the most underrated guitarists ever if you ask me. I don't even think tapping is all that great and this guy did it amazingly. People wanna say Eddie Van Halen was the best when it comes to the tapping technique but I have to disagree with that because Vito is in my opinion the greatest man to ever do the tap technique.
But they also had the criminally underrated guitarist Vito Bratta who was simply unbelievable. Him and Don Dokken are the undisputed kings of that. They formed in New York City in 1983 and they had the excellent combo of Danish vocalist Mike Tramp who is for my money the best vocalist to come out of the whole glam scene. They had the tools to make it big and while they did experience some pretty good success they still are fairly underrated compared to some of their peers. Today's band I'm reviewing is White Lion, one of the more talented bands to come out of the glam metal craze for sure. Stuff like Ratt, Europe, W.A.S.P (more heavy metal but definitely has a little glam to it on some of their albums), Cinderella, Dokken and Quiet Riot are the shit and I am not ashamed to say that I like them. There is stuff far better than the crap like Warrant, Firehouse, Poison, Extreme and Bon Jovi and all that gay shit you may think of when you hear glam metal.
