Neither Razzle nor Vince Neil were wearing seat belts and according to Louder Sound, Vince Neil had an alcohol reading of 0.17, high above the legal limit of 0.10. Vince Neil escaped serious injury but Razzle was pronounced dead on arrival at Redondo's South Bay Hospital at 07:12 local time. His car went into the path of oncoming traffic and was hit by another car, whose inhabitants were left injured and with brain damage. While speeding and driving drunk, Neil lost control of his car and swerved around a stationary fire truck at 65mph in a 25 mph speed zone.

Judas Priest without doubt counts as one of the best and most charismatic Heavy Metal bands in history, and has always been one of my favourite bands. While the band would go on to release even bett. The album is filled with energized and melodic Heavy Metal from start to finish. Vicious Rumors' debut album from 1985 shows a band with huge potential.

This One's For Rock'N'Roll (Best Of Hanoi Rocks 1980-2008) - (Brian)īook review: Sheriff McCoy - outlaw legend of Hanoi Rocks - (Michael) Twelve Shots On The Rocks (Reissue) - (Brian) Live at Molotow, Hamburg, Germany - February 25th 2005 - (Michael) 'Buried Alive' is a worthy aftermath to one of the greatest bands ever and one of the true originators of Glam/Sleaze rock. Hanoi Rocks may be put to rest but the music lives on. The club has also been Hanoi Rocks' homeground and the 8 sold out Tavastia farewell shows in 6 days just underlines that. The crowd is very close to the stage and overall Tavastia is a very cool club to film the show. The club is packed and the atmosphere is amazing. The small stage at Tavastia Club hampers them a bit but when you play 2 hours and 30 minutes you need to save some energy. The band is energetic and plays with passion.

Nasty Suicide and former drummer Lacu joins in for the grande-finale Up Around the Bend - the song that always closes Hanoi Rocks' shows. Christell are good exponents for the 'new' Hanoi Rocks, while Nasty Suicide makes a guest appearance on Travellin' Band and Taxi Driver. The farewell show does not dwell in the past but compiles Hanoi's career beautifully. This live recording only proves that the band is tight and their songs are timeless. McCoy and Monroe have put Hanoi Rocks to rest, but the band goes out on a high note with brilliant albums like 'Street Poetry', 'Another Hostile Takeover' and '12 Shots on the Rocks'. The comprehensive show is filmed at Tavastia Club, Helsinki, Finland April 12th 2009 and just released under the meaning title 'Buried Alive'. Hanoi Rocks' last show ever has been immortalized.
