Not Ratt but Just as good!.......2005-08-15

I wanted to take some time and listen to it a few times before writing a review. I wanted to be sure to get it right. I purchased this cd expecting to be mildly diappointed by it. I was very wrong. Although I found myself comparing it to Ratt because of the voice of Stephen Pearcy, I had to point out some differences. Any Ratt fan would love to have this one. "Nothin' to Lose" sounds like a typical Ratt song to me and I love it! However another favorite of mine is "Cry no more", a ballad!! "Mother Blues" is a acoustic and a little bluesy which is obvious from the title. In my opinion every song on this cd is well worth the listening. Hats off to a group who can make entertaining music without the use of four letter words. It's called talent. I can't stop listening to it. I'd highly reccomend this for any collection, especially for Ratt fans!!

Arcade, best left for Video Games.......2005-07-11

I've recently given this album another try, just to make sure that 12 years after its release it still sucked. Just to confirm, it does indeed suck, majorly. It's comparable to dental surgery, visits from your mother-in-law and hard punches to your testicles.

If you liked Ratt (which I most certainly do) you won't like Arcade. "Why?!?!?" you ask?
1. The music is like Ratt, only with the same singer and worse musicians, and the lead singer seems to be recovering from a massive hangover the afternoon they recorded the album
2. The songs must have all been leftover from 80s Ratt albums that "didn't make it" - and now we know why they didn't...
3. Sounds like Stephen Pearcy was at about 12 packs of cigarettes a day when they recorded this piece of crap

Overall Rating = 1 undeserved star. I would have given it a "zero" star rating, but that is not allowed on this site.

If you are thinking of purchasing this album - STOP RIGHT THERE! Save your money and go have yourself checked out for a brain misfunction. If you really want to hear an over-the-hill rocker singing songs about "all the chicks that got away" and "my hair stands up without spray", head to your local county fair - I'm sure there you'll find "Arcade" among the carnies and cow poop.

Arcade - self-titled (One Way).......2005-02-28

I'm sure there are plenty of you out there that fully supported Ratt in their heyday,like myself.Vocalist Stephen Pearcy formed this 'new' band Arcade(was originally supposed to be Taboo).Arcade has twelve rockin' tracks that shouldn't let too many down.Liked about every tune here,including the slamming "Dancing With The Angels",the disc's single "Nothing To Lose","Screaming SOS","Messed Up World" and "Living Dangerously".Great material here.You know,if Ratt had made a record like this rather than their cop out of an lp 'Detonator',the group just might've lasted longer.Oh,well.

Search this one out.......2004-09-10

This is an excellent hard rock album in the vein of Aerosmith/Zeppelin made at a time(1993) when a non grunge rocker couldn't get a return phone call. Starts off strong with Dancin With The Angels which has a nasty groove not dissimilar to Joe Perry's Let The Music Do the Talkin. Screamin SOS and Livin' Dangerously rock with a vengeance. There's even some substance in the lyrics on songs like Messed Up World and Mother Blues. If you wanna hear hard rock made without samples or studio trickery by rock vets, pick this one up.

The one and only STEPHEN PEARCY.......2003-08-07

Stephen Pearcy is hands down the the best sleaze rock singer/ showman of that wonderful 80's era as well as today. Listen to this album and in the next second or 2, you'll be in your car with every window down and your stereo cranked up to the max, reliving the period of time, when your fist did the talking and "Let there be Metal" were the words you lived by! Pearcy, plain & simple rocks!!!! And we're talking "METAL" my friends! This album does righteous justice to the moniker! "All shook up" should be played over and over again in the workplace, it rocks so hard! The wonderfully delightful SEXY egotist, who has been likend to that that of a slick black cat, truly deserves the iconic title of "Scream King" -- move over Vince Neil & Axl Rose, let Stephen Pearcy show you how it's done! Incredible!
