The more seriously its participants take their assignments--namely to deliver high-decibel Christmas cheer wrapped in screaming guitar solos and pummeling percussion--the better this compilation of hair metal versions of seasonal songs works. Unsurprisingly, the metal masters Dokken come off best with a classily arranged version of "Santa Claus Is Coming to Town," though you wouldn't object to finding Stryper's rocking "Winter Wonderland" and Queensryche's gloriously over-the-top version of "White Christmas" under your tree, either.

Monster Ballads Xmas Music Review

Average Rating: (3.8 out of 5 stars) 4 stars

5 stars Not Your Normal Christmas Album.
This Really Makes Me Want To Rock Around The Christmas Tree. The Regular Traditional Christmas MusicIs Nice But To Hear Some Of The Best 80's Bands Doing Them Is Fantasic. Now This Christmas Is Going To ROCK!!!! Best Christmas CD Since TWISTED SISTER's TWISTED CHRISTMAS!!!!! Hope More Groups Follow Right Along With This!!!

4 stars The next best thing to siiting by the yule log...
This CD was a pleasant surprise. A straight ahead Christmas CD with no fluff or crappy "Grandma Got Run Over.." novelty stuff. Not a lame version in the bunch. And of course my favorite, STRYPER!!!

1 star What are people thinking????????????
The people that gave this 5 stars must be in some of the bands because this is HORRIBLE. Geoff Tate who has 1 of the Greatest voices ever doesn't even try on this song and after seeing the other artists I understand why. This is why people made fun of the 80's hairbands. Dokken(with George Lynch) was incredible and Queensryche was/is great but Firehouse, Danger Danger, Enuff Z' Nuff, and Nelson were not any good back then.

Recording information: JLM Recordings (11/2002-01/2003); Monkeyden (11/2002-01/2003); Studio De Edgecliffe (11/2002-01/2003). Say this for AM: the man comes by his lazy roots rock sound honestly. Born in Oklahoma and raised in and around New Orleans, AM sings with a laid-back drawl and writes songs that rarely rise above a moderate level of emotional intensity or a cruising, middle-of-the-road tempo. Interestingly, his most obvious vocal referent is Ian McCullough -- try spinning "Playing the Game" for friends over the age of 35 and ask them to guess the band, and it's a good bet they'll ask you which Echo & the Bunnymen B-side it is. The album's feature single is "Mainstay," which features the program's most aggressive drums along with some really pretty 12-string guitar and the album's only truly indelible hook. "City Syndrome" is also noteworthy, though, with its Weezer-meets-the Beach Boys backing vocals and summer evening vibe. The album closes with the lovely, minimalist "Losing You." A year after AM's release in 2004, the label released a remix EP featuring "Mainstay" along with four drastic (and often aggressively techno) rearrangements of that song, as well as a CD-R video track. It's worth picking up, but good luck finding it -- as of this writing, very few online outlets were offering it.
