 Metal Mania!!!! March 14, 2007

I remember when I was younger rockin' out hardcore to some 80s metal. It was one of the highlights of my childhood looking back. I was definitely excited to hear them "stripped". It was an amazing compilation of the songs I grew up on as well as the more mellow sound I've grown accustomed to lately. It was a major mix of nostalgia and excitement that took me back to a time when I had no worries. I highly recommened you pick this one up for a trip down memory lane.

If you like Big Hair, this is a must have, even if for no other reason than to round out your collection. I have to say, Nelson's version of Love and Affection is awesome...should be on the radio now.
80's hair metal unplugged September 9, 2006

With Metal Mania Stripped Vol.2 you many 80's hair metal classics served up acoustically. While none of the songs improve upon the original versions, this cd does make for an enjoyable listen. The songs lose the powerful feel that many of the originals had and go for the intimate feel. Some of the highlights are: Here I Go Again, Talk Dirty to Me, Heaven's Tail, Once Bitten, Twice Shy. I didn't really care for Round and Round, done in this way, but for the most part this is an enjoyable cd. The cd will mainly interest fans of the 80's hair metal genre.
A fun album... February 19, 2006

...especially if you like anachronistic covers. Okay, they're not covers per se, they're rerecordings by the original artists, acoustic-style. Still, mellow hair metal has its charm, mainly as a guilty pleasure.
 I was hoping for Slayer to come in punch them all. February 10, 2006

Do you remember MTV Unplugged? Do you remember watching your favorite bands absolutely embarrass themselves in front of coffee sipping yuppies who could only see these bands in this kind of venue because they know they'd get their tail kicked at a real show? Well, in case you forgot, now you can buy that same atrocity here and relive those magical years.
There's a reason MTV Unplugged isnt around and this CD proves it. Just listen to the samples here first before you give away your hard earned minimum-wage money.
