HOLLYWOOD VAMPIRE "Love Is Rock'N'Roll" (CD)
(Official Website)
Their name may remind you of L.A GUNS and you wouldn't be too wrong about it since HOLLYWOOD VAMPIRE seems to worship the 80s/early 90s Sunset Strip scene. A song like "Girl In Action" brings MOTLEY CRUE ("Kickstart My Heart") to mind while "I Can't Wait" is more in the POISON/TUFF vein. This is well done and lead singer Jack does a good job. There's even the ballad you could find on every hair metal band record back in the day. These five songs will make you live the 80s again, is it a dream or a nightmare? That's for you to decide but I'm sure that their goal is tol give you nothing but a good time. Italy has many bands in that style and HOLLYWOOD VAMPIRE are is probably among the best ones.
