BADLANDS – Badlands +1 bonus [Rock Candy Remastered] Out Of Print
This great album was requested again: BADLANDS first, self-titled album “Badlands” remastered by Rock Candy Records and reissued in CD with a bonus track, now with a complete 16 full color booklet including rare photos and a 4000+ full essay about the making of the record.
This Rock Candy reissue appeared some years ago alongside Badlands’ second record, and it was about time for these killer albums to receive a remaster and become available again as the original CD pressings were long time out of print being sold on eBay for a jillion dollars…
But guess what… both Badlands Rock Candy remasters were on sale only few months due to Ray Gillen’s estate / family claim.
So this “Badlands Rock Candy Remaster” reissue was retired from the market and it’s Out Of Print again.
Badlands self-titled debut release is a collection of terrific blues flavored hard rock songs that is raw and laden with emotion. The late (RIP) Ray Gillen voice is perfectly suited to the genre displaying a wide tonal range in a variety of styles, from all out rockers to slow bluesy ballads. His ability to infuse genuine feeling into the music is one of the keys to its appeal.
Beside Gillen’s vocal talents, Badlands also features the considerable skills of guitarist Jake E. Lee, the man who came to replace Randy Rhoads in Ozzy Osbourne’s band. Badlands was founded by Lee looking for a more organic, classic hard rock band sound.
The frenetic energy that powered Ozzy’s material are channeled in Badlands into a completely different direction. The results, while perhaps not as manic, are still very powerful in a different way.
Instead of starting at full throttle, more often the energy and tension are allowed to build, before being released. Lee’s tone, style and phrasing, bear little similarity to his playing with Ozzy, but his desire to play this type of music was the reason he left Osbourne’s band. With a cleaner guitar tone, Lee’s fluid playing style can more easily be heard, and appreciated.
Rounding out the band is a monster rhythm section. The excellent Eric Singer energetically handles the drumming duties, and Greg Chaisson provide the deep bass foundation.
Put simply, “Badlands” rocks hard with tons of feeling.
