about

W.A.S.P.’S 1989 ALBUM NOW WITH BONUS TRACKS

"one of their finest works ever" - Metal Hammer

Blackie Lawless launched W.A.S.P. on the unsuspecting world in 1983 and before long tales of their outrageous music and intense stage shows were legendary. This special edition of the band’s third album from 1989 proves that while the theatrics and shock tactics of Blackie Lawless might have gained the headlines, it was what they did on record that gained them legions of fans.

With The Headless Children, W.A.S.P. moved away from the over-the-top antics that had made their name to create their most mature album to date and one which is regarded by many fans and critics as the band's finest record.

This edition features the original album along with 6 bonus tracks including live versions of the classic singles "L.O.V.E. Machine" and "Blind In Texas".

"It was all about shock for W.A.S.P. , be it flaming codpieces, tying a semi-naked woman to a torture rack mid-set, tossing raw meat into the audience or Blackie Lawless’ own stupefying arrogance… One thing is for certain, in the annals of metal there are very few bands like W.A.S.P." Metal Hammer

PSA: if there was an album you heard a couple years ago and thought it was ok, listen to it again and you might love it. That's what happened to me with this album. I cannot fathom why it didn't stick with me back then. Same thing happened with Decoherence's Unitarity for that matter. Matten
