Grab your favorite hairspray and pull out your best leather pants because Swedish rockers Crazy Lixx are back with their newest album, Thrill of the Bite.  Have no fear, your favorite high energy 1980’s throwback band is still oozing glam and sex.

The album starts off with the highly intoxicating heavy guitar riff driven “Highway Hurricane.” Energy is high, vocals are solid. You won’t be driving your Trans am under the speed limit with this one.  And then there is “Who Said Rock and Roll is Dead.” This one is nothing less than an arena rock anthem. It's an 11 on a 10 scale and screams at the top of its lungs, 'Turn It Up!'

Tracks like “Call of the Wild” and “Midnight Rebels” highlight Crazy Lixx’s ability to blend heavier riffs with melodic elements, creating songs that are not only powerful but catchy as well. The first video for "Midnight Rebels” in itself is a stand-alone winner. The video takes us right back to an 80’s prom full of horror and fantasy, along with the typical 80’s music video vixens.  The following tracks stick to their tried-and-true recipe.

While Thrill of the Bite doesn’t venture into uncharted territory, it doesn’t need to. Crazy Lixx excels at delivering nostalgic, feel-good rock anthems that pay homage to their 80’s influences while maintaining a fresh and energic sound. Fans of the band, as well as fans of 80’s metal and glam rock, will find a lot to love about this latest album.

Overall, this is a great addition to the discography of Crazy Lixx that captures the spirit of the heyday of hair bands of the 80s. So let loose, let your hair down, and bask in the fun of rock ‘n’ roll through the lens of Crazy Lixx.  Thrill of the Bite is a hands down, no holds barred winner!
