The material on
Skid Row
is mostly typical
pop-metal
fluff, but since
was one of the hardest bands to find commercial success during the
hair metal
fad, the songs sound angrier and more aggressive than the lyrics and hooks might indicate. Part of this is due simply to the musical talent in the band, and part of it is due to vocalist
Sebastian Bach
; his tendency to oversing actually gives some much-needed nasty attitude to most of the songs, and when the music does match those sentiments (i.e.,
"Youth Gone Wild"
), the results fulfill, rather than merely hint at,
's potential. But the melodies and songwriting are pretty consistent throughout the album, even if they aren't as close to true
heavy metal
as they sound. The hit power
ballads
"18 and Life"
and
"I Remember You"
are musically generic, but
Bach
's over the top delivery makes them guilty pleasures as well. ~ Steve Huey
