Wrathchild - Stakk Attakk

Wrathchild - Stakk Attakk - 1984 01. Wrathchild - Stakk Attakk, 1984 Vinyl LP Album
     Heavy Metal Records - HMR LP 18
This is surely the gayest record ever posted here. In the feverish quest for new gems that would bring as much rejoicing and neck-breaking as Show No Mercy and Shout At The Devil (yes I have been a uninterrupted fan of the first two Mötley Crüe records since day one, watch the hilarious Netflix biopic and shut up - then watch the more awesome Death Of Stalin), I was naturally attracted by this first Wrathchild record. It looked promising with all this glam boots and haircuts and makeup mixed with the spikes and leather of speed metal. A new classic? The middle-road of Destruction and Ratt (yes the first Ratt is amazing too)? Fuck no! 20 years before Saint-Anger, Stakk Attakk instantly became my reference for the worst "metal" album (if you can call it that - and excluding Sigue Sigue Sputnik from the contest). The songs are lame and bland with Olympic force, the production sucks major ass (what a ridiculous guitar sound) and - yes - most tracks feature a drum machine (a 1983 drum machine! pif paf bing bong). It is not even catchy, the singing and instrumentation are not remotely noticeable, it is a badly compiled snorefest that does not begins to threaten the supremacy of Twisted Sister. They can't even pose correctly, nor even write a semi-funny lyric line. Fuck Wrathchild with their own spiked underwear. This is a sad joke, do not download it.
