Buckcherry
Manufacturer:Eleven Seven Music
Released:11 April, 2006
When Buckcherry first came out I didn't want to like them. Yeah sure, in the past I partied pretty hard, but a mega hit song about cocaine? Come on now, that's just plain bad. Then I kept listening. I got
Time Bomb. I got hooked.
To me
Buckcherry is the glam of the new century. I hear a lot of things that remind me of bands like LA Guns, GNR, even Crue at times. They are a little rougher around the edges, but they are to me at least the New Glam Metal. They sing about sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll and they make it seem fun again.
"Crazy Bitch" is the first song I heard off of this on
Bubba the Love Sponge's Show used as bumper music. So what if I am a bubba mark, I sure as hell wasn't going to hear this song OFF of satellite radio. And if I did, it wasn't going to be anywhere near as fun. Come on, a song about sex with a half crazed woman? Tell me that isn't glam. Unfortunately it is catchy as hell, and let me tell ya the folks at the grocery store give me dirty looks when the song gets stuck on repeat in my brain.
Everything is a sweet sounding song about basically a girl having a shit ass life. "Sorry" is the true glam love ballad. The apology song. "Carousel," a song about broken romance. "Brooklyn," a song about rock star life.
Sure there is no substance. Sure it's a whole lotta fluff. Sure it's catchy and will probably get some mainstream air play (can't tell ya for sure tho). But it's a damned fun CD. It's glam, but it's damned fun.
