 ANOTHER GEM FROM THE GOLDEN AGE..... May 1, 2008
wally gator (USA)
1981 was a peak year for rock music. I can remember being a sperm in my fathers nut sack and thinking about how SO many great records came out of this year, alot of bands were splicing styles, mixing up a raw breed of metal, punk, and glam, that hadn't gone into the void of hair metal yet. It was the pinnacle of a building rock sound that had started rolling around 1974, and just got harder, faster, and more tripped out as it went along.
Motley Crues debut album from this year is no exception. The following year would bring Shout At The Devil, where the Crue blew heads with a room filling, ace kicking sound (this was before the outrageous eighties production values) but on this first album, the production is very meat and potatoes, and is all the better for it. No other Crue album has the same straight up feel as Too Fast For Love. This one is a straight up hard rock classic. LIVE WIRE is a killer track, and is the template for most of the bands future hard rockers, but every other song on here a unique slice. Take the title track, completely a raw type of energy on that one, shout along chorus, almost a punk song. The ballady STARRY EYES with its haunted heavy mid break section. The ripping PEICE OF YOUR ACTION, or the head spinning MERRY GO ROUND, or the plain old bad assness of PUBLIC ENEMY #1. This is a rockin peice of work, and undoubtedly; along with the follow up, Motley Crues finest hour.

This was early Motley Crue with its real raw sound and lyrics. Eveything was upfront and thunderous like real heavy metal should be. Created during the era when metal was rising. Attitude is the main ingredient for the recording of Too Fast For Love.

One of the most powerful debut's in rock history. Motley Crue delivers big time on this album! You love metal/rock look no further!
 A Rough n' Raw Debut (4.5 stars) February 2, 2008
Scott Wallace (Noblesville, IN USA)
The essence of a raw rock n' roll record, Moetley Cruee really score with this, their debut. Before they had fame and fortune, they put out this record. It has none of their hits, but so much grit and groove. I've heard that this is, essentially, a demo that was rushed out as an album. From the sound, that may be true. Songs aren't tight, in that well rehearsed way, and Vince misses a note or two, but there's a lot of good rock n' roll here. Highlights are opener "Live Wire" and "On With the Show."
The bonus tracks (especially "Toast of the Town" and "Tonight") flow really well with the original album. I honestly didn't know they were bonus tracks, for the longest time.

This is the greatest glam record of all time. Way better, more pure and harder rocking than Shout at the Devil.
