Review
"Stay Hungry" by Twisted Sister, dropped on May 10, 1984, like an electrifying spark in the arena of 80s heavy metal and glam metal. Considered the band's crowning glory, this third studio release packed a punch with attitude and flair. Belting out classics like "We're Not Gonna Take It" and "I Wanna Rock," these tracks really captured that defiant and vibrant vibe of the era, solidifying their place as iconic anthems of 80s rock. Other standouts like "Burn in Hell," "The Price," and "S.M.F." are perfect slices of the album's driving force, each leaving a significant mark on the auditory senses.
Tom Werman whipped up the production in just a couple of months, channeling the band’s untamed energy into a sonic juggernaut, despite having a few creative clashes along the journey. But, who can deny that their signature sound was nothing short of exhilarating? Originally hitting multi-platinum status in the U.S., it sold a boatload of copies and snagged love from fans and critics alike. With a 40th Anniversary Edition on the block, remastered tracks and some bonus surprises like "Never Say Never" are wrapped up with a live disc from 1984 capturing their energetic performances. This iconic adventure still ripples through the rock world today, keeping the spirit of Twisted Sister vibrant and alive for old fans and new listeners alike! - Sienna
