Ratt frontman Stephen Pearcy saddles up for 2017 with his solo album Smash. Here’s a guy who enjoys writing music. That positivity is felt all throughout this record with the muscle-car-and-cigarette sound of Glam Metal. Smash is the perfect music for any neighborhood bar. It’s not a live album, but has that relaxed jam style feel—almost Country. One could liken it to Poison in that way.

Songs are consistent and have enough variance to keep things flowing. Some acoustic guitar and piano add pleasant dynamics. Notable tracks are the Arena Rock ballad “Rain”, and a more serious “Passion Infinity”. This record brings a lot of fresh sound from a seasoned artist. Fans of Pearcy will be pleasantly surprised, as will anyone who loves to stumble upon some great new Rock.

About Jude Cossey 40 Articles
Jude was a reviewer here at Metal Express Radio, living in Taiwan but originally from the great state of Ohio, USA. He first got into music when a fellow weirdo in his catholic high school needed someone to play guitar with. They jammed on some Grunge Rock, but soon he got hooked on the blisteringly-fast shredding of Randy Rhoads and other greats. Later, he bought Metallica's Ride The Lightning as his first album purchase. During that time, his friends and him would end up at local Metal shows. He played in some bands himself as well.
