Sweet Pain - I get My kicks/Subway Terror

[chuckieg1000]

Saw these guys open for Ace Frehley at L'Amour NYC back in like '84. They rocked. Unfortunately a majority of the drunken Ace Frehley crowd threw beer cans at them and gave them tons of shit. But they stuck it out and played their whole set while flipping off the crowd. Was glad I was there,they was cool.

I had this cassette back in 1985. Thought it was really cool . I found the vinyl version on Amazon the other day. Can't wait to hear it again.

[BrunswickDeath]

Blimey. I had this record way, way back in the day. Get My Kicks made me chuckle then, and still makes me chuckle now. Props for having the conkers to take the Starz on but, really, you can't improve on perfection.

[Caligula442]

Ive got this release on my Ipod plus The bassist I believe went to work with L.A. Guns. Shoot for thrills (into the night) is on this and L.A. guns debut.

@Caligula442 You got the Sweet Pain Lp on Cd-r? lets set up a trade i have tons of rare 80s hair metal. jarrettgardner80@yahoo.com Thanks!

[grandprixlee]

is shoot for thrills or rock your socks off on this album? could someone possibly post either one? Thx

[redbanger65]

I've had the cassette since the release! And now have it on CD! This Kicks Ass! Bought it because of the Band name, I'm a huge KISS fan, Thought maybe there was a connection. There wasn't, other than being Glam. But I was hooked from the first Liston! Great Album!

[JarrettGardner80]

@redbanger65 Where did you get CD version? How do you reach Corky Gunn? Can we setup a trade? jarrettgardner80@yahoo.com

[roxbottom]

At least these guys had the balls to cover Subway Terror. I'

ll take to STARZ version anyday. . .

[speedking1970]

Thanx dude!! :) Yeah, on Ebay, it was sealed, I believe since '85 or '86. There's vinyl copies too, but right now they're going for 60 bucks. Cassette was only $10...

[speedking1970]

My cassette copy of this album just came in the mail the other day. Now I'm hooked on it!!!! these guys DO NOT suck...

[voltronsky]

whaa? you actually got a cassette copy of this? in the mail? shit! that is rad as fuck!

[JarrettGardner80]

@speedking1970 Where did you get the cassette version?!

[speedking1970]

@JarrettGardner80 I got it on Ebay. They still have them on there, I think. You can get a sealed copy for only like 10 bucks. I really want the vinyl version, too. But the cassette has the song "Two Time Love" which the vinyl version didn't :D

[Svenghoulie]

i loved this album!ok vocal wise its shaky,but it was raw! No over processed cheese!If it came out on c.d today i would buy it.Not bad for a band that had obviously a small budget to work with.

[acacia70]

too bad Scarlet Rowe was ousted from the band before the photo was taken.

[devangeli]

fuck off just fuck off this is no good even for the time

[voltronsky]

need hug? :(

[SpikeMichaels]

AAAh, it sucks, period!

Who are these jokers? THEY SUCK!!!!

[Shaymus76]

xD subway terror songs soooo diffrent xD

[CruezLittleAngel]

FUCKING LOVE THIS RECORD! i found this record while looking thru the metal section of my record store.

[drunkstill]

i never realized that subway terror is a cover originally done by 70s band starz. was on i tunes. (and i thort sweetpain were poets for writting this lyrical masterpiece!!!)

[voltronsky]

thnx for the heads up. too bad there's nothing on starz on the tube to compare it.

[MrHappyPants6000]

I was looking for Starz version and found this instead. Starz' original is MUCH better. I can't emphasize that enough. I'm gonna have to post the song on here now just so people hear how it's SUPPOSED to sound. This singer makes it sound bad.

[voltronsky]

Well then bring it. Bring the pain.

[MrHappyPants6000]

Done.

[xxxeightballxxx]

wow,havent heard this since about 1986.these guys freakin rock,ahead of there time.so many other shit bands made it in the eighties,these guys deserved it

[Flotsgirl]

I have this cassette an have practically wore it out. It's good to hear it again.

[drunkstill]

i really love the lyrics " i steal some purses. i see some nurses...i wanna dirty up their little skirtys up"... i dont think led zeppelin have much to worry about! but seriously, i got this on cassete. I like it. its so bad its good. i get my kicks and subway terror are the best tracks on the album. shoot for thrills later made into la guns song is another good 1. its alot slower almost sounds out of time in parts.

[vectorterror]

love it so much back  in the dayz ...but check out sexx action babes yeah

[gizz88]

Man. I have this casette!

[inuyashagirl90000]

i <3333333 Subway terror cause i no the band really (im 11) and they deadecated this song 2 me (SUBWAY TERROR)

[mhiegl]

I loved these guys back in the day. I bought the album when I heard them on the local late night metal show. I've still got the vinyl somewhere.

I read somewhere that Corky Gunn was working on getting this re-released on CD with some bonus tracks but I haven't seen it yet.

This was one of my favorite non-thrash records from the 80's.

[voltronsky]

yes indeed, it's really sad Combat dropped the ball with these guys, they could have been huge.
