Best Of Genre May 25, 1999
Warrant proves they are the best of the 80s metal bands with this effort. Jani Lane's emotional ballads like I Saw Red and rock anthems like Mr. Rainmaker and Uncle Tom's cabin puts a boot into the mouth of anyone that ever regarded hair metal as cheese music.

WARRANT'S "CHERRY PIE"...YUMMY! Mar 04, 1999
I personally like this album better than "Dirty Rotten Filthy Stinking Rich", even though I really like that album as well. The songs on "Cherry Pie" are a little more sophisticated. The overall effect of the album is a little more polished. Warrant stayed true to their original sound, which I admire very much. If you liked Warrant's first album you'll definitely want to add their second effort to your collection. I think it belongs in every collection really. It's definitely an example of "metal" at it's best; fun, rebellious, a little bit naughty. For the easily offended, purchase the copy that does not include "Ode to Tipper Gore", which is not actually a song but a vignette of profanities clipped from live performances. The guys in Warrant were clearly trying to make a point about censorship, but not everybody appreciated it. Whichever version of the album you choose, the SONGS deliver! As for other albums you may like if you like this band, well, starting in 1998 and moving forward into early this year there has been a phenomenal amount of activity within bands of this genre. I started cross referencing and came up with some great news! I am happy to report that Sebastian Bach (former Skid Row vocalist) has released his first solo album, and to date it is one I personally would rate as a five star album. Lizzy Borden's last release was 1995, Poison's and Quiet Riot's were 1996 so don't count them out yet. As for the rest...prepare to be surprised. The rest of these bands have new or re-released titles between 1998 and early 1999. AC/DC, Accept, Aerosmith, Alice Cooper, Bang Tango, Baton Rouge, Bon Jovi, Cinderella, Danger Danger, Dangerous Toys, Def Leppard, Dokken, FireHouse, Great White, Guns 'N Roses, Heavens Edge, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Kane Roberts, Kiss, Kix, L.A. Guns, Metallica, Motley Crue, Mr. Big, Ozzy Osbourne, Ratt, Saigon Kick, Scorpions, Slaughter, Sleeze Beez, Steelheart, Twisted Sister, Tyketto, Van Halen, Warrant and Whitesnake. So, to quote Quiet Riot, "Cum on Feel the Noize". (For those who are unfamiliar, that's how they spelled it on the album!) You can start right here with this album, Warrant's "Cherry Pie"

GLAM ROCK MAY BE DOWN, BUT IT'S DEFINITELY NOT OUT! Aug 09, 1998
Okay, okay, you may think that Glam Rock is a dead genre. I'm here to tell you, it's not. Witness Warrant's 1990 album "Cherry Pie". This album was released when I was only seven years old, and I have just recently discovered glam rock. Warrant has quickly become one of my favorite bands. Their songs are so refreshingly HAPPY compared to the dreariness of alternative music that has taken over radio stations and CD racks within the last five years. I especially enjoy "Cherry Pie", "Bed of Roses", "Blind Faith", "I Saw Red"... basically every song on there! But, I have to say, no Warrant collection is complete without a copy of "Dirty Rotten Filthy Stinkin' Rich". Now, just screw what everyone else says. GLAM ROCK IS BACK!
