Blackout In The Red Room

Released

Jizzy Pearl possesses one of the grossest stage names in all of music (even rivaling the members of GWAR) and a real sleazeball snarl, but that makes this ode to excess feel all the more filthy. Heavier than a lot of their hair metal peers, both in tone and subject matter, this thing absolutely wallows in the salacious dark side of the scene. “Why Do You Think They Call It Dope?” doesn’t exactly celebrate drug use (despite a deliciously funky bassline), and while “Slutsy Tipsy” and “Slave Girl” sport questionable names, they hide horror stories underneath the catchy choruses.
