When you look at pictures of Leaded Fuel, their album cover, and their song and band names you're either going to cringe and make a hasty decision to hate this band, or you'll get a tingle up your spine and proclaim them the next great rock band. The fact is that Glam Rock is generally hated or loved. I promise you this about Leaded Fuel, you will be pleasantly surprised if you plan on hating them and you won't be dissappointed if you get your hopes up.

This is a very good rock band, bottom line. Don't get caught up in the names, the look and image and just appreciate the music. They definatley follow the Hanoi Rocks philosophy and probably lean more towards Punk than Glam. Vocalist Liz Lascivious has a unique delivery and style that closely resembles Michael Monroe and even Iggy Pop. If you're expecting Poison here forget it, these guys are much more Raw, much like the first Faster Pussycat album. Even though they aren't exactly breaking new ground, in some ways this recording is fresh and unique.

Leaded Fuel are also very good musicians, something you couldn't always say about the Glam/Punk bands. The production is also very solid. No, it's not slick, it fits the band raw style and the louder you turn it up the better it sounds. You could really argure that you get the best of both worlds here. The 80's crowd get's their larger than life band members who obviously like to party and raise hell, and the more sophisticated crowd get's a real rock band that understands what rock n' roll is and has learned from the greats who have come before them.
