Slave to the Grind: The Album That Kicked Glam Metal in the Teeth

Подробнее о видео

This week, we dive into the creation of Slave to the Grind, the album that shattered expectations and took Skid Row from hair metal darlings to a full-throttle heavy metal force. Released in 1991, Slave to the Grind made history as the first heavy metal album to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, proving that Skid Row was more than just another glam band. Fueled by Sebastian Bach’s blistering vocals, Rachel Bolan and Snake Sabo’s crushing riffs, and a raw, aggressive attitude, the album was a deliberate response to critics who had dismissed them as just another pretty-boy rock act. From the anthemic title track to the haunting ballad "Wasted Time," we explore the making of this legendary record, its impact on metal, and how it signaled the end of the glam era.
