This album has some pretty good stuff on it. I think the best song here is "Two Worlds." They are your basic hair metal band but I don't think many people know them? If you ask me I think they could have been bigger. If you got this album and you haven't lissened to it for some time than I suggest you pull it out and give it another lissen.

This is in my car's CD player right now, it's just f*cking awesome, and I say that having had it since it came out. Without looking at the jacket I can't remember how much involvement there was with Steve Stevens, he may have produced it. I know he co-wrote and played on "Two Worlds" though, you can really hear his style of writing and playing come through on that.

Good, full-sounding glam CD from the Sleeze Beez/Cry Wolf school. CD gets off to a shaky start with "When I'm in the Mood" but "My Religion", "Woman in Love" and "In Heaven" tore my head off cleanly. Had these guys had an earlier start, they would have been a household name.

This is no doubt one of my favorite CDs of all time. I saw the "She Hates Me Video" by Puddle Of Mudd on MTV the other day and also noticed the McQueen Street shirt that their singer is wearing. Guess he's a fan too. Heard through the grapevine that their is a 2nd McQueen Street CD coming soon but trying to find out more. If anyone hears anything, please post.

The 2nd half of this disc is much much better than the 1st half. Bought it for "My Religion" which pounds, "Going Back to Mexico" & "Two Worlds" are great rockers while "In Heaven" & "Only The Wind" slow it down and are outstanding. HEY RICHARD--why such a long layoff between albums? Also how about some MP3 samples of the new album up on the web site so we can hear if you guys still rock or if you've forgotten how (unfortunately like so many other bands). Good luck to you and the band!!

Not attacking mon ami Belge, just saying that this is hard rock, you're out of your depth, and I liked the first one a whole lot, if you can tell by my previous post (see September 19, 2002). So for me, more of the same would be (as Martha Stewart would say) a "good thing". I can't say I don't like you personally, but I can say I don't like the way you confuse your opinions with facts. Your country produces many of my favorite beers, so I suppose I will have to give you the benefit of the doubt.

the singer has a 'loud' voice sort of speak.., the beginning of 'woman in love' is just plain stupid but there are some songs on this cd that really rock..like 'two worlds' and 'going back to mexico (don't drink the water man)'.I have the video for 'religion' somewhere . nice cd..

Pretty good when they rock--favs here include "Goin back to mexico", "Stick it", 'in heaven' and of course 'My religion'. Those are about all I listen to off this one, but in my book they make buying it worthwhile.

AOR Freaky- I just don't get you. If you don't like the band-that's cool but you don't have to speak up every time someone says they like them. Most AOR bores the hell out of me but I'm not going to waste my time going on all those bands' pages griping about how much I hate keyboards. It's called personal taste-deal with it dude. McQueen Street is a great(in my opinion) no frills rock band. The song "Time" is very cool.

Fair enough, Dean ! But there are lot of better sleaze bands than this one ! It's all so one-dimensional. And after all, this site pretend to be the hardrock and AOR reference on the web, so it's logic that people talk about AOR ! You don't know what you miss, mate, in comparison to this average act (sorry, but that's what they only are !). But, it's up to you ! Enjoy !

Welcome to Freddy/Freaky's world Dean. He knows better than all of us and really we should be thankful that he is here to show us the path to the real music. I used to like that knock down, drag out rock 'n' roll but now thanks to Freddy, I have seen the light and now find happiness in extended keyboard solos and majestic arrangements... I'm sure you don't mean to be one dimensional, and you wish you too could be more "open-minded" like Freaky/Freddy...best of luck!

I was listening to the boneyard on XM Radio last week and heard "In Heaven" and a couple of other songs so I went out and picked up MS2. All I can is these guys are the real deal. I've worked in radio most of my adult life so I hear a ton of music. Two thumbs up for this band and the new CD!

Ok i know it's useless to keep pursuing this but i guess the point I'm try to make is just because there might be better bands out there doesn't mean i can't enjoy another one plus i don't consider bands like Tesla, Mr Hate, or Mcqueen Street sleaze. Pure killer hard rock. To tell the truth though- I think AOR Freaky/Freddy has been a lot cooler lately. The insults don't fly quite so readily anymore. Jason- on the other hand can go head to head with the best of them.

Dean, I'm with you. No way is McQueen Street a "sleaze" band or "glam" for that matter. 4 on the floor hard rock. Sure, everybody's entitled to their opinion but I think AOR Freaky Freddy has his facts screwed up or hasn't bothered to listen to the new CD. In fact, what the hell does the package really have to do with the music. He's barking up the wrong tree with any negative comments on this page. Maybe we should write McQueen Street and tell them to send him a ticket to their next show!

Yes, no doubt a great band. My band once opened for them in Orlando FL at a place called The Station in the early 90s. I've honestly never seen a better live show in a club or in an arena for that matter. I'm glad to see them back kicking it.

Just another run of the mill, sleaze-glam, party rock album that came out at a time when that style of music was out the door already. The lyrics can be juvanile and silly at times (Which I guess is the point in that specific genre, isnt it?) But the cockyness of Derek Welch turn me off. His voice can be grating on the upper register and none of these guys were perticularly good songwriters. The only good tracks on the CD are the ballads 'In Heaven' and the minor gem of a song 'Time' 3/10

From: Geoff |

These guys have an awesome sound, thats for sure. Big guitars, massive drums and (sometimes a little too much) big vocals. 'Woman in love' and 'When I'm in the mood' are monster hard rockers. 'In heaven' is a wonderful ballad, but for me the show belongs entirely to the sensational 'Only the wind'. An amazing song and an overall pretty good album. A few fillers I guess, but still very well done. Good hard rock.

well produced album with some great hair metal songs: time, my religion, money and in heaven and some not so great.

The song "My Religion" alone makes this as necessary to a hair-metal collection as a crown is to a queen. While nothing else quite equals that rip-snorter of a track, other songs do come close ("Stick It"), though to be fair, there are slso some junk fillers sandwiched in between ("Going Back to Mexico"). This was given the royal treatment in terms of production (by Tom Werman, if I recall correctly) and it sounds great, with crisp, sizzling guitars and of thick, wall-of-sound backing vocals in the choruses. Bottom line, this will rock your stereo, your car, your house, or wherever else you choose to crank it up.

excellent hair metal debut by MC QUEEN STREET in a time when hard rock music was mainstream.their sound (Tom Werman) and musicianship is amazing and the songs pretty good!commercial hard rock music at its best with attitude,groove and soul.my fav are "stick it","woman in love","when i m in the mood" and "in heaven".a must have for hard rockers

Huge, big-budget production (Tom Werman in charge, Steve Stevens and Jeff Scott Soto stopping by), shrieky vocals with a "Wow!" or "Oh yeah!" about every ten seconds, big simple gang choruses and tons of sleazy attitude. Yep, by the summer of 1991, hair metal had reached such a saturation point where four guys from Montgomery, Alabama, had all the textbook moves down so tight, there was no way to tel by listening that they weren't straight from the gutters of L.A. This band reminds me of Wildside, in that they did everything right, but by the time their album was released, it offered absolutely nothing new, and failed to make much of an impact. THe two singles "money" and especially "My Religion" are pretty good, and other highlights are "Stick It," "Going Back To Mexico" and "Two Worlds." The number of ballads is surprisingly high (three in ten songs), especially given the extra-rowdy quality of the other songs, and none of the three are anything special.

I probably would've loved this if I'd owned it back in '91. I was a kid who had never bothered to wonder if there was anything besides hair-metal. Two decades on, it's easy to see McQueen Street for what they were--a talented but utterly derivative band playing the flavor of the day--and understand why they never made it out of Headbanger's Ball's third hour, or the lower rungs of the Z-Rock 50.

I love this album so much. I remember blasting my religion when I was a kid! Still brings back great memories and it deserves to be blasted.
