Music reviews of Love the Sin Hate the Sinner
Music Review: Hair metal heaven
Rating: 4 Stars
2008's Love the Sin, Hate the Sinner (brilliant title!) is the debut release from Saints of the Underground, a side project of some of the "hair metal" scene's (mostly) minor players. The only band member who is reasonably well known is vocalist Jani Lane, formerly (currently?) of Warrant. The rest of the band is made up of drummer Bobby Blotzer (Ratt), bassist Chuck Wright (Giuffria/House of Lords), and journeyman guitarist Keri Kelli.
Love the Sin, Hate the Sinner sounds exactly like what you'd expect an album by a bunch of aging hair metallers (and I use this term with deepest affection) to sound like. It's upbeat, melodic in a way that only an 80's metal band can be, and rocks just like your old school Ratt or Warrant album would. Kelli serves up some great guitar riffs, the rhythm section keeps things pounding, and Jani Lane's voice is about as good as it has ever been. I know the guy has some personal issues, but they don't appear to be affecting his voice at all. Alongside upbeat melodic rockers like Dead Man's Shoes and Signs of Life is a pair of interesting covers. The first is a faithful rendition of Tom Petty's American Girl and the second is a surprisingly well executed version of the Rolling Stones' Moonlight Mile. The album closes with an uncredited song called Jimmy. There's nothing about this track in the liner notes, but it sounds an awful lot like a Thin Lizzy song, which is always a good thing.
If you still love listening to your old Warrant, Ratt, Poison and Motley Crue CDs, you'll definitely want to check out what the Saints of the Underground have to offer. Love the Sin, Hate the Sinner will have you partying like it's 1989.
