Contents

Singles included "Black and Blue," for which a music video was made, and "Days Are Numbered."

Critical reception

AllMusic called the album "a fine one, with more than enough high-water marks to counter the lows, and more than enough sheer 'rawk' gumption to stand out from the cookie-cutter radio rockers out there." [2] PopMatters called the album "a confident step forward," writing that it is "the perfect music for a summer afternoon with a tubful of beer on ice." [6] Exclaim! derided the "vocals that sound like a furious and bowel-obstructed Scott Stapp, tired mid-tempo Southern rock blues-riffing punctuated by occasional hints of thrash, and enough debased artificial harmonic guitar solo wankery to make Dimebag Darrell roll over in his grave." [7]

<i>Under the Blade</i> 1982 studio album by Twisted Sister

Under the Blade is the debut studio album by American heavy metal band Twisted Sister, released on Secret Records in September 1982. It was produced by UFO/Waysted bassist Pete Way and featured an aggressive and hard-hitting sound, which was eventually ignored on a remixed re-release by Atlantic Records on June 13, 1985. The re-release also added a remixed version of the song "I'll Never Grow Up, Now!", the band's long-forgotten 1979 single. The Atlantic Records release was both an attempt to cash in on the commercial success of Stay Hungry and, by then, the only official way to get the album as Secret Records was no more. However, bootlegs with the original mix were still in circulation. On May 31, 2016, Eagle Records re-released Under the Blade in a digital remastered form with the original mix finally restored. Under the Blade has sold over two million copies worldwide.
