BB STEAL – On The Edge [Japan HR-HM 1000 Vol.5 series Limited Release] (2022) HQ
Universal Music Japan did it again, a new campaign of their ‘HR/HM 1000‘ series – the Limited Release reissue of long time out of print albums from their Hard Rock / Heavy Metal catalog at the price of 1000 Yen = about 9 USD.
Now it’s time for the second 2022 batch, ”HR-HM 1000 Vol.5” and among titled we find this lovely album from BB STEAL, “On The Edge“, the first full-length from the Australian melodic rockers.
BB STEAL are heavily Def Leppard-influenced from songwriting to sound & style, and it’s not surprising that Phil Collen co-produced “On The Edge”, with the band opening for Def Leppard during the Adrenalize Tour.
”On The Edge” is melodic, catchy, smooth AORish and rocking at places… and so ’80s!
