{"product_id":"beg-for-it","title":"Beg for It","description":"Audio Mixers: Roberto Laghi; Hardcore Superstar.\u003cbr\u003eArranger: Hardcore Superstar.\u003cbr\u003eThese Swedes have a sense of humor, and better taste than their sleazy glam metal might indicate -- they took one of their album titles, Bad Sneakers and a Piña Colada, from a Steely Dan lyric, after all. On their latest effort, they're continuing to deliver what big-haired ladies and aging bandanna-over-the-bald-spot dudes want from a rock band. Big riffs, catchy choruses, and solos directly indebted to Slash's work on Guns N' Roses' Appetite for Destruction are all over this album. Vocalist Jocke Berg shrieks like a cross between Axl Rose and Vince Neil, the rhythms are bare-bones but hard-driving, and the lyrics are all about sex and debauchery, in the most vague and amorphous way possible. There's even a power ballad -- \"Hope for a Normal Life\" -- that splits the difference between G N' R's \"Patience\" and Iggy \u0026amp; the Stooges' \"Gimme Danger.\" This is an utterly anachronistic album, which, when one considers the aesthetic wasteland that is American hard rock in the post-grunge era, isn't really a bad thing. They do need to tighten things up a little; no glam metal song should make it past the four-minute mark, let alone five-plus. But there's enough fast, punchy, cowbell-driven tracks like \"Remove My Brain\" and the almost thrashy \"Into Debauchery\" to make Beg for It a fun, dumb good time for fans of the band or the genre. ~ Phil Freeman","brand":"MovieMars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49270976151839,"sku":"727361238025","price":50.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/7833\/0399\/files\/4ff8b511c045adae802b604acf427f04_ad77c997-719f-468d-b3aa-47de799feafe.jpg?v=1777877879","url":"https:\/\/www.moviemars.com\/products\/beg-for-it","provider":"MovieMars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
