Does that high-pitched wail sound familiar? Well, odds are if you're reading this, you should know it. For
Vinnie's second album, good ol'
Mark Slaughter (who would soon -- with
Invasion bassist
Dana Strum -- form the even more successful and creatively named
hair metal band
Slaughter) takes over vocals from the departed
Robert Fleischman, and while his high-pitched wails are a bit hard to take, his vocals give this record a bit more consistency than the debut. Outside of that it's kinda just more of the same. Unfortunate for
Mr. Vincent given his obvious talents, this sort of "
metal" that somehow thrived from 1985-1990 (or so) wasn't the type of
rock that was open to too much experimentation. So what you get here is a pretty run-of-the-mill
hair rock album: rockers,
ballads, solos, etc. ~ Chris True
