#305 SUNSET STRIP DEATH MATCH: METAL HEALTH vs OUT OF THE CELLAR

#305 SUNSET STRIP DEATH MATCH: METAL HEALTH vs OUT OF THE CELLAR

“If they’re not fat, they’re soft…”

Think back to The Sunset Strip and the emerging metal scene of the early 80’s, full of sleaze, shred, and riffs, long before the emergence of the “serious glam” and “serious thrash” of the mid to late 80’s. METAL HEALTH and OUT OF THE CELLAR, released in 1983 and 1984, by QUIET RIOT and RATT (respectively) both preceded the hair metal movement of the late 80’s and ironically (to a great extent) helped to define it.

While both METAL HEALTH and OUT OF THE CELLAR were “more metal than we thought”, each album has its share of pros and cons, with some tracks drowning in 80’s nostalgia that sound a bit dated by today’s standards, and others possessing a far more timeless heavy metal quality that still holds up and sounds awesome even today.

It’s time to “purse the lips up a little bit” and grab the attention of those who smell like “Aqua Net and Marlboros” that are wearing the “bustiers and leopard skin spandex” who just want to “use the bathroom”.

Discover the shared traits which “vegans and wizards” have in common, find out why squirrels are “deadass” the dumbest creatures on earth and why some birds are “a little bit touched”, go ahead and submit your early enrollment for “Juilliard Speech School” and get ready to do some “edging” to try and replicate “the weird feeling” you had when you were 10 when you JOIN US for the SUNSET STRIP EDITION of our HEAD-TO-HEAD DEATHMATCH featuring 2 of the greatest debut albums in the history of early 80’s metal, METAL HEALTH by QUIET RIOT and OUT OF THE CELLAR by RATT.
