Info zu Dangerous Toys (Remastered)

Foot stompin', toe tappin', head banging heavy metal from Texas! Take the slither and slide of like L.A. bands like Guns n Roses and Faster Pussycat and mix it with a Texas, southern rock boogie, and you pretty much have an accurate description of this album. Every song on this disc, despite being of the pop metal variety, has an undeniable hook that will pull you in like a catfish to a slimy 'ol night crawler on a brisk Texas morning. (Man was that corny or what?) OK, the lyrics were a bit typical of the sleaze rock of the late 80's. I mean can you get any more obvious than "Sportin' a Woody"? Nice band pic on the back with drummer Mark Geary sporting a Death shirt. Hair metal with a cowboy hat and boots. Gotta love it! Dangerous Toys' debut would go gold.

„With their self-titled debut album, Dangerous Toys found themselves in regular rotation on MTV. At the time their Southern rock-influenced metal was noticeably different from the hair metal dominating MTV's Headbangers Ball. The album contains such memorable, and somewhat laughable tracks as "Take Me Drunk," "Feels Like a Hammer," "Sportin' a Woody," plus their breakthrough hit "Teas'n, Pleas'n." Despite the band's enduring reputation as a cult favorite, the album has a very corporate rock feel. The fact that Jason McMaster sounds like Axl Rose only furthers this idea. Still, this album fares better than most from the genre at the time.“ (Curtis Zimmermann, AMG)

Dangerous Toys
When Dangerous Toys released their self-titled debut album on Columbia records in 1989, their raw southern rock and metal served as an immediate attack on glam metal's reign on MTV and rock radio. Their two hit singles, "Teas'n, Pleas'n" and "Scared," gained the band a rabid following and helped the album go gold.

Dangerous ToysDangerous Toys was founded in Texas in 1987 by vocalist Jason McMaster along with guitarists Scott Dalhover and Danny Aaron, bassist Mark Geary, and drummer Mike Watson. They released the follow up to Dangerous Toys, Hellacious Acres, in 1991, and while the album sold reasonably well, it didn't match the groups initial success. After getting dropped from Columbia, the original lineup slowly began to dwindle. Danny Aaron left before their third album, Pissed. Mike Watson left before recording The R'tist 4'merly Known As Dangerous Toys in 1995. Although the band officially broke up in the late '90s, they released a live album in 1999 and occasionally reunite for a few shows.
