Demolition 23 - Nothin's Alright

[w0bbl3r]

Saw Mike on saturday, WITH SAM YAFFA MOTHERFUCKERS. Awesome show, but for some reason only an hour and a half show. They came on around 8:30 and were done by 10:00.

Still on top form, and great to see and hear them perform these classics again.

[danswon]

i love how no matter what he styles himself he always looks to me like a Fraggle

[damianedwards1]

Everytime I listen to this album I'm blown away by how great it is! Easily up there with my favourite Hanoi albums. Easily!

[theuncletodd]

like other people have said.. why Mike/Hanoi/solo never hit it big is beyond me

possibly the last great punk/pop frontman left

thank GOD he's getting a 'second' look in 2010---and the reviews are all positive --- time to catch up people

Demo 23 is a GREAT CD---you can find it on the net but Mike and Little Steven are trying to get it re-released--god I hope

[w0bbl3r]

@theuncletodd Really? They are trying to get a label to release tghis awesome album? About fucking time, I lost mine years ago and cant find a copy anywhere. Ebay has them, but I am not paying the prices people are asking for a second hand bloody CD that is probably a copy anyway.

Really need to get this al;bum again, and the self titled d-generation album as well. The only two truly great albums of the 90's, apart from the black crowes debut album maybe

[LeighandOllie]

Wow, I wish I had this album!

[Edea161090]

awesome lyrics lol

[lizzieblonde]

i saw this song live 3 days ago at download festival. it was actually a dream come true!!!!

[rockinbonesvideo]

That's a great album. You rarely hear such great albums from musicians after they sort of hit their commercial peak with their main band. That Demolition 23 album is a classic.

[Jenniezoso]

Still amazing. yes

[djgforce11]

America wud rather embrace posers like Mutley Crud or Pisson,thats why bands like these never made it!

[jariari]

Golden!

[Jaques68]

I hope Michaels next band sounds like this.

[vanhasmatti]

@Jaques68 It will. They're back and his band has 3 original members, Sam Yaffa (bass) and Jimmy Clark (drums) and of course Mike.

They have some gig dates online. They tour with the name Michael Monroe so they can play best of Demolition 23, Michael Monroe's solo stuff and Hanoi Rocks.

Can't wait to hear these songs live!

[vanhasmatti]

@Jaques68 Your wish came true. In his new band he has the same drummer and bass player! There is a new live video you can find with "Michael Monroe: Dead, Jail or Rock N Roll". It was third or second result.

[popartturi]

Great; Mike again

[FAUSTIANDAWN]

Every Band he did Rocks, Hanoi Solo Demolition and Jerusalem Slim.

[Paulosav1970]

God, til the day i die i'll never work out why Hanoi or Mike were not huge stars????

I'll shut up now and go back to my NY Dolls and A.Smith albums!!

[vanhasmatti]

@Paulosav1970 They had some problems with the record company earlier.

Btw. Sam Yaffa(NY Dolls, Hanoi Rocks, Demolition 23) is back with Mike.

[vanhasmatti]

"Michael Monroe LIVE @ Brick By Brick PART 1"

They're making a new album

[code507]

@Paulosav1970 Man I agree they style to be blunt is about to be the next big thing...

They Mixed emotion, with clever, and a blast of energy... you are totally right they

were YEARS ahead of there time!

[Gerperossi]

Henning didn't actually leave the band but he had some problems joining the band outside the US (passport, visa ??) and that's why they had to find another guitarist. Michael really talked warmly about Jay as a guitarist and as a person. Unfortunately Jay took his life sometime later. I saw them in Finland and Andy joined them on the stage for a couple of Hanoi tunes. It was Michael, Nasty, Sami and Andy alltogether for the first time since -85.

[lizzieblonde]

yeah it does suck that this music was underrated.. but im glad we still have hanoi back again and they still kick some fucking ass onstage! michael monroe is a legend in his own time

[bonjovifansandy76]

Wonderful, produced by Little Steven...

Michael Monroe is great, both with this or Hanoi rocks!

True kick ass rock &roll !!!

[yuyu77]

que banda de putamadre!!!!!!!!!

[teenangel69]

Awesome!!Monroe is the true king of r'n'r!!

[w0bbl3r]

yeah, baby. have you seen hanoi recently? he still kicks ass in a huge way and looks almost (but not quite) as good as he did in '81. amazing rock star and totally underrated

[mrlee192]

wernt there a few hanoi rocks members in demoliton 23?

[w0bbl3r]

yes, 2 if i remember correctly. mike monroe is the obvious one, but one of the guitarists was in there too, im sure. but cant remember which one

[azrael666ethereal]

Originally there was 2 Hanoi mambers, Mike Monroe on vox, Sammi Yaffa on bass.. Later Jay Henning the guitar player left and Nasty Suicide stepped in.. So in all 3 members of Hanoi were involved but the band wasnt together long and only did one album....

[HanoiRocks1994]

yep 3 micheal monroe ofc then nasty suicide and sam yaffa :)

[SouthTexasGlamBear]

Great album.

[Pearldrop11]

I loved this band... awesome video!

[thunders5291]

Nice.Got this cd off napster.Never could find it when it hit in 94.His 89 show(free admission)was still 1 of yhe best 25 shows I've seen.(out of 150)

[w0bbl3r]

i had it when it came out, but have lost it somewhere over the last 10 yrs or so, and it is hard to come by now. they should run a re-issue of it... maybe with some unreleased or live tracks as a bonus or something. these were 1 of the highlights of the 90's, its a real shame they never took off. i never understood y, as they were much better than all the boring, depressing grunge and metal that made up the rest of the "rock" scene at the time

[NightrainNo9]

i guess people were really dumb then, i mean, grunge was popular then, it's awful stuff really, that's probably why the good stuff like this wasn't cared for much

[MrsRaynwater]

I would like to hear his take on a 90's baby! anyway great song way too underrated wish they would have done more!! Thanks for posting!!

[MegaMisfit]

such kickass. Too bad that so few ppl know about this band.

Same with Andy and Nasty's band Suicide Twins. Pure awesome, just like Demolition 23 and Hanoi!

[Jaques68]

3.05-3.07 Go ahead JUMP!

[prorocket]

Love demolition,why just 1 album?

[w0bbl3r]

tell me about it!! exce-fukkin'-lent

[w0bbl3r]

boy this takes me back 2 a better time, m. monroe, hanoi, crue, pussycat, doing your make-up in the ladies room in rock city, notts, shovin' the girls/bein dragged by the girls into a cubicle for some sex, drugs 'n' rock 'n' roll. cool as fuck never got the recognition they deserved, better than any so-called rock band of 2day, in my opinion.

[w0bbl3r]

i saw monroe solo in about '99-'00 he was still kikkin' ass then, saw him 2 yrs ago at rock city notts., with hanoi, STILL kikkin' ass, lookin' cool-as-fuck, full tin of hairspray, %51 shares in max factor, he was still a god. what a cool fucker, makes me fondly reminisce shagging chicks in the ladies room at rock city many years ago, but he still looks better than i did then, hes only about 15 years older than me too. pisses me off a bit.

[w0bbl3r]

saw monroe with hanoi 2 years ago at rock city, nottingham, still lookin' good an' kikkin' ass

[Rebeliini]
