Mötley Crue - Shout At The Devil


Time to present album number four out of ten of the assignments we got. "Choosing 10 vinyl albums that greatly influenced my taste". One album per day, 10 consecutive days. No explanations, no reviews, just covers. Every day I ask someone else to do the same." Throwing the ball on some nice figure at the social media Facebook.

After KISS made their entrance in one's life, did the doors opened up to try other things, dare to stretch out your hand for the more dangerous and forbidden, be a rebel. And during this time as a fleck brat many dangerous bands find its way into my room. Like MÖTLEY CRUE, W.A.S.P., VENOM, and MANOWAR among many.



I do have a great memory when I got "Shout At The Devil" with MÖTLEY CRUE, a few friends of mine usually hang out downstairs at one of my best childhood friends. Playing pool and listen to music. One day I did take the album "Shout At The Devil" with me, pretty quickly it got to be a real favorite, got many spins until we agreed to create a band and play tunes like this. We grabbed a few tennis rackets and mounted our own guitar/bass makeups, I believe that I played bass on this one. Anyway, after some time we agreed to arrange a concert for our parents, that including MÖTLEY CRUE and W.A.S.P. tunes, of course, it was played at high volume and eager youths who wanted to show off, with makeup as MÖTLEY CRUE, air guitars and lip-synced vocals we performed a concert that kind of ended after a song or two when the parents didn't agree with what was playing... haha.

"Shout At The Devil" is the second studio album by American heavy metal band MÖTLEY CRUE, released on September 26, 1983. It was the band's breakthrough album, establishing MÖTLEY CRUE as one of the top selling heavy metal acts of the 1980s.

Today's tune is the title track, enjoy!

Kiss - Creatures Of The Night


Time to present album number three out of ten of the assignments we got. "Choosing 10 vinyl albums that greatly influenced my taste". One album per day, 10 consecutive days. No explanations, no reviews, just covers. Every day I ask someone else to do the same." Throwing the ball at some nice figure at the social media Facebook.

"Creatures Of The Night" by American rock band KISS did a big change for me, it was the first record I got, scary dudes with face paint and stage outfits from a other dimension. The Starchild (Stanley) with a catchy vocal, the Demon (Simmons) with his long tongue and bloody face, the Spaceman or Space Ace (Frehley) cruel guitar player with riffs you never heard before, and the Catman (Criss) a really cool drummer. A gang that you would love as a kid so the room got decorated with posters of the band.

"Creatures Of The Night", it's the 10th studio album by American rock band KISS, released in 1982. It was the band's last for Casablanca Records, the only label for which KISS had recorded up to that point. The album was dedicated to the memory of Casablanca founder and early KISS supporter Neil Bogart, who had died of cancer during the recording sessions. It is also the band's last album recorded with Ace Frehley credited as an official member and their first album with Vinnie Vincent as the initially-uncredited lead guitarist (Vincent would later be credited but not featured on the cover of the 1985 reissue of the album). It was also Kiss' last album to feature the band with their trademark makeup until "Psycho Circus" was released.


My guitar hero back then got to be Ace Frehley, i thought the solos was awesome and he looked so cool on all the pictures that I framed my wall with, found out later that he didn't even play on this album...haha I got fooled.

Today's tune is one of the lost gems KISS didn't include in the Kissology series. With Ace on guitar (for the last time) KISS played Creatures of the Night in lip-sync several times during their promotional TV tour in Europe.
