Rocktopia CD Review: Bad City - 'Welcome To The Wasteland'

A Fireworks Magazine / Rocktopia album review by Bruce Mee: Well, colour me surprised! It's not often I get hit straight between the eyes by a band I have never heard of – especially one that seems to have the backing of a major label – in this case, Atlantic Records. Listening to Bad City's debut is like the last 25 years never happened, being a wonderful smorgasbord of everything that delighted about melodic metal from LA in the 80s. Part sleaze, part glam, part metal, all class, wrapped up in a wonderful production courtesy of Johnny K (Sevendust, Staind) that deliberately eschews modern digital techniques to capture that genuine 80's vibe, whilst strangely remaining current and vibrant.
