 Twisted SisterCome Out and Play [Germany Bonus Track] Release Date 1985 Label WEA International Rating:  Twisted Sister was left in a strange position after the massive breakthrough success of the band's 1984 album, Stay Hungry. While the album contained more of a pop edge than the group's more raw preceding albums (Under the Blade and You Can't Stop Rock & Roll), the heavy metal masses worldwide -- as well as the lucrative MTV/pop audience -- still embraced the album. So for its follow-up, Twisted Sister was faced with a question: Should it continue in a more pop-oriented direction or return to its early heavy metal? The resulting album, 1985's Come Out & Play, proved that the answer was a little bit of both. Behind the boards was Scorpions/Accept producer Dieter Dierks, and the compositions alternated among tracks that were ambitious (the title track), obviously ready for radio (a cover of &"Leader of the Pack," &"Be Chrool to Your Scuel"), and custom made for headbangers (&"The Fire Still Burns," &"Kill or Be Killed"). The aforementioned &"Be Chrool to Your Scuel" featured such musical guests as Alice Cooper, Billy Joel, Clarence Clemons, and Brian Setzer; a humorous video was filmed for this track and ultimately banned by MTV. And although the album was certified gold shortly after its release, it soon slid from sight -- eventually leading to Twisted Sister's demise a few years later. [Like the 1999 reissue by Spitfire, the German reissue also includes the bonus track &"King of the Fools."] Greg Prato, Rovi |
