Album #3 of the Skid Row catalog. The controversial third studio album produced by Bob Rock and the final album to feature vocalist Sebastian Bach and drummer Rob Affuso. While many were turned off by the heavier sound I was all in on this album from the first listen back in 95. The production took a little to get used to and I always wished they’d remix the whole album like they did to the tracks on the Best of Album. The album had three singles “My Enemy”, “Into Another”, and “Breakin Down”. All three are great songs and other favorites are “Frozen”, “Beat Yourself Blind”, “Firesign”, “Face Against My Soul”, “Eileen”, and “Bonehead”. Sadly the album didn’t sell well reaching only #35 in the US charts and only reaching Gold certification. The band opened for Van Halen on their Balance US tour but there didn’t seem to be much promotion from the label and I don’t remember seeing the videos on MTV or the songs on the radio. The band could have made the greatest album ever recorded and by 1995 the world wouldn’t have cared and had moved on to alternative and other genres.
