We just need to be glad that that a select group of veteran deathsters have incorporated riffing and tone elements of the venerated ones into a sound that is distinctly Windy City.

Generation Wild
It is totally derivative of a potpourri of '80s glam rock and hair metal bands, including the glammed up look of the band members themselves; the album clearly one for fans of that definitively love-hate era. And it would seem that's exactly what Sweden's CRASHDIET intended with new album "Generatio...July 27, 2011
