Black Alice

01. Black Alice - Endangered Species, 1983 LP      Street Tunes - STLP 004 So, what was going on in Australia in 1983? The red rocky thing in the desert was already there, so Black Alice decided to use it for their album cover. My young self found that cover so appealing that I bought the record, hoping to find something along the lines of Exciter or Battleaxe, I don't know, this artwork looks very speed metal to me, doesn't it? Maybe, but the music is completely standard hard rock, pretty close to AC/DC (mainly because of the vocals) and British Steel-type Judas Priest, and Metal On Metal-era Anvil. And most importantly, it is great, close to classic! I love this record. It rocks in the sand and makes your hair grow faster. There is a bump on song 2 on side B that I could not edit out, sorry. Super very excellent hard zerring album anyway! !ZER Black Alice ZER! Remove brackets and unzip: [roll the zer]
