Bio:
Twisted Sister is an American hard rock band from Long Island, New York. Twisted Sister's most well-known hits include "We're Not Gonna Take It" and "I Wanna Rock". Many of the band's songs explore themes of parent vs. child conflicts and criticisms of the educational system.While the band members' famously cross-dressed appearance might seem to link them with the 1980s glam metal movement, Twisted Sister's aggressive musical style was coupled with a more grotesque use of makeup and women's clothing resulting in a product quite distinct from the more hedonistic androgyny of glam metal groups like Mötley Crüe, Ratt and Poison. Often considered glam metal for their image,the band rejects the "glam metal" tag as inappropriate.Twisted Sister are also ranked No. 73 in VH1's 100 greatest artists of hard rock.
Album:
TWISTED SISTER, although formed in the early ’70s did not gain label releases until the early ’80s. They formed in New Jersey but moved their base to New York City to help further their career. Their first album was released via an independent label. Their follow-up, You Can’t Stop Rock ‘n Roll was released via Atlantic Records in 1983. It went Gold and proved that the band were moving into their prime.”Stay Hungry” from 1984 catapulted the band into Platinum territory with over three million copies sold and worldwide acceptance. The record gave us the anthemic “We’re Not Gonna Take It”, and the heavily played “I Wanna Rock”.On October 4, Atlantic revisits the classic Stay Hungry by producing a 40th Anniversary Set.This 2-Disc pack ”Stay Hungry [40th Anniversary Edition]” delivers the original album with a 2024 remaster and provide two bonus tracks with “Never Say Never”, and “Blastin’ Fast And Loud” – both recorded at the time the album was coming out but didn’t make the record and the band actually finished them later – and the two are killer.The second disc features a full unreleased live set from San Bernardino in 1984 with 9 performance tracks – quality is very good, raw, as we like Twisted Sister.With this 2024 remaster ”Stay Hungry” sounds huge, and the live record confirms that TWISTED SISTER was a beast on stage.The live San Bernardino show was aired on MTV back in the ’80s, titled ”MVA Twisted Sister San Bernardino live Stay Hungry concert”. A few copies where released on VHS and laser disc (remember those?), but now will be the first time available as audio, remixed & remastered, and it’s going to be on vinyl and double CD.“Stay Hungry” remaster blast your speakers. The drum intro of ‘We’re Not Gonna Take It’ kick some serious ass, guitars are sharper, and backing vocals really ‘gang-like’.Classic album sounding better than never.
