The Lost US Jewels Vol 12 ; CITY FIXX – Fire Your Guns (2022) *HQ*
As part of the treasurable Steelheart Records ‘Lost US Jewels’ series, here’s all recordings from CITY FIXX. As the Los Angeles Hair Metal scene was exploding in ’88, with bands like Guns ‘N Roses, Faster Pussycat, L.A. Guns and Warrant all taking a piece of the (cherry) pie, over in the aptly named Rockville, Maryland, were CITY FIXX, a bunch of rock and roll ragamuffins that wanted their own slice of the pie.
Sounding like a delicious blend of early Guns ‘N Roses, Faster Pussycat with a hint of Poison, the likes of ‘Shatterbone City’, ‘Blood’ and ‘Last Romance’ are irrefutable proof of this band’s prowess.
Producer Kim Fowley (Runaways, Alice Cooper) firmly believed that CITY FIXX was better than most L.A. bands around at the time, and produced some of the 20 (!) tracks included into this ”The Lost US Jewels Vol 12 ; CITY FIXX – Fire Your Guns”, compiling the band’s various studio recordings that reached major labels.
CITY FIXX’s Eighties US sleazy hard rock definitely has ‘something’, weird they didn’t get the chance to release an album back in the day.
Limited to 500 CD’s, almost sold out. Crank it up loud!
