Pros: Intense. Addictive. Cons: It's only 38 minutes long. A couple of bland tracks.
I always associate W.A.S.Ps debut album with my year 12 maths class. Despite this obvious handicap, I love the album anyway. Maths was my worst subject by far, and I needed no incentive to lose my temper about having to go to any class, let ...

Pros: Razor sharp, heavy metal thunder. Cons: Not entirely original, but still effective.
W.A.S.P. was one of the “dirty dozen” that were demonized in the mid-80s by that infamous censorship group, the PMRC. It seems that former 2nd Lady Tipper Gore loses sleep at night when someone says something she doesn’t find in good taste, like a...

Pros: Early 80's metal in its purest form Cons: none
W.A.S.P. didn't get noticed for their heavy metal self-titled debut back in 1984, but they did get national recognition. W.A.S.P. holds the reputed honor of being the heavy metal band that instigated the legislation for the recording industry to start...

Pros: Made me understand how important heavy metal was, scary looks (the armor ruled) Cons: Bad haircuts, no hidden messages found when played backwards
I don't think there are enough words to describe how important this album was for me. I can start by telling you, that when I was about 9 years old, I got a tape of some popular music thru my mother. She had taped it for me from one of her friends. At...

Pros: rhythmic, original material... Cons: graphic lyrics may be unsuitable for small children
The year, 1985 or 86, held special meaning to me. I was growing up, puberty held me hostage while acne served as punishment. Erections were constant and the longings(lusts)were even worse. I was a teenager...uggh and life was miserable. I needed...

Pros: long time metal fan and long time W.A.S.P. fan Cons: not really familiar with that many other music styles other than metal
W.A.S.P.'s self-titled debut album was a very strong debut album. All the tracks were very fast and heavy for their time. They were also very unique in their own way. Chris Holmes really thrashed with the guitar and Blackie Lawless sang as loud and hard...
