There's a huge resurgeance of the 80's Sleazy Glam/Metal Rock
going on around the world right now, there's some bad, some
terrible, some good and some that are completely on the mark.
"Peep Show" is one of them who "get it".
I grew up with this style of rock, I bought up everything I
could find that resembled Motley Crue or L.A. Guns, I've heard
it all. These guys could have been a huge band back then, they
are that good.
Frontman Johnny Glam channels the old LA days with his gravely
delivery and his Nikki Sixx mystique. He's actually a very good
singer with some pretty amazing range. Generally this genre
is more about style over substance, but having some nice chops
just adds another weapon to the aresenal. Most importantly Gunn
bleeds rock n' roll in his look and voice. When you mix in the
crunchy guitars of Rusty Gill, you have a nice mix "Shout
At The Devil" era Crue meets Faster Pussycat. You get the
idea, it's 1985 all over again, but with updated production.
Peep
Show should have as much of an appeal to the guys as the girls,
they're sexually charged, avoiding the sappy ballads and they're
not trying to talk over our heads, they're just rocking out,
kicking ass and having a fucking good time.
