Rock is the New Roll: Thundermother – It’s Just a Tease
Sure Swedish Sleaze Rock band Thundermother could have packed it in when 3/4 of the band left in 2017, but lead singer Clare Cunningham would have none it. The band is back with a vengeance.

Video of the Day: John Diva and the Rockets of Love – Blinded

Video of the Day: Bang Tango – Someone Like You
While they never hit the big time these guys were a bit harder edged than Motley Crue, not quite as cool as Guns ‘N’ Roses, they certainly could blow Poison off the stage in the Sunset Strip era. Maybe they were just a bit ahead of their time.
Best Albums of 2019: John Diva and the Rockets of Love – Mama Said Rock is Dead
Just look at these guys and you can tell what their full throttle M.O. is. Unabashed devotees of Sunset Strip Glam and Sleaze Rock they are all about booze, broads, and Rock and Roll.
The sound is is an intoxicating mix of the bands you loved when you had hair. “Rock ‘N’ Roll is Dead” is a Hybrid of Bon Jovi and the Def Leppard era when the drummer had two arms, and “Lolita” could be the love child of Poison and Motley Crue.
Smooth riffs, anthemic choruses, sweet guitar solos, these guys bring back a bygone era before mortgages, kids, wives and divorces sucked up all of your disposable income. Steel Panther, beware. The new kings of The Sunset Strip are coming after your throne.

Video of the Day: Crazy Lixx – Wild Child
This Swedish Hair Metal Rock Band, yes they do exist in 2019, carries the Rock and Roll torch with pride. One of the last standing bands of the New Wave of Swedish Sleaze, these guys don’t take themselves too seriously and that is half the fun. With a band name this cool, they have to be Rock and Roll. And, they most definitely are.
