It isn't good as 'Once Bitten', 'Twice Shy' and 'Hooked' albums but it is still Great White. 'Step On You', 'Old Rose Motel', 'Big Goodbye' and 'Never Trust A Pretty Face' are fun to listen.

This is a great album. I passed on it for several years because I didn't really care for Hooked, but I was pleasently surprised how good this turned out to be. 'Psycho City' and 'Doctor Me' are great songs as is 'Love Is A Lie', with lots of energy throughout.

A beautiful release. Definately a 'mood' album, but when you're in the mood for a relaxing blues based album, this is the pick. 'Old Rose motel' is a gem of a track. 'The big goodbye' is the cool rock track of the album, but overall it's just a very good blues based rock album.

For a change, Great White decide to record an album of all original material. And surprisingly, it is actually pretty good. This one rocks more than the previous album and is their most consistent release since the debut. 7/10

Was listening to this one the other day, it is indeed a strong, original release which was nice after the formulaic 'Hooked'. My favorites here include: Step On You, Doctor Me, Big Goodbye, Get On Home and Never Trust a Pretty Face. Definitely in the top5 of Great White recordings!

Not as consistant as the brilliant 'Hooked' but still a midy fine slab of savagry. 'Big Goodbye' and 'Love Is A Lie' are two of Great Whites Best songs-Probably make my Top 5. The Title track and 'Step On You' are no slouches either. Some fillers though so I cant rate it as high as they're previous releases. Still above and beyond most bands! 8/10

This is Great White at the top of their game with Mark Kendall the star of the show. The two highlights are blues-rock diamond 'Old Rose Motel' & the beautiful 'Love is a lie'. Some longer tracks can bore me to tears but these two could last 20 minutes apiece & I'd never tire of listening,mainly due to Kendall's (less is more) guitar style. 'Psycho city', 'Step on you', 'Maybe someday' (another great bluesy ballad), 'Big goodbye' & 'Get on home ' aren't far behind & would be star turns on many albums such is the quality of this release. The other three tracks are ok but seem lacking compared to what's around them.

Smooth bluesy hard rock, not so perfect as previous Hooked, but still high above the average of this genre. Well-produced with well-balanced sound. If you like this you might also like Cinderella, Bonham or early Kingdom Come. 85/100

Probably the second best Great White album IMO. Great bluesy rock and good production.Step On You is the best track from this one but a solid effort from start to finish with no filler.

GW along with Kingdom Come are 2 bands that are strongly influenced by Led Zeppelin if not listen to the nice softy track "Love Is A Lie"...you have some other fine moments in tracks 1,2,6,7,8 & 10...is not a very consistent release but acceptable and enjoyable at the end...83/100

After the oddly laid-back Hooked, Psycho City contains some of Great White's heaviest material since their debut (which is somewhat of an outlier in their catalog anyway). The band, and more specifically manager/co-writer/sixth member Alan Niven, had some things to get off their chest, which may have contributed to the renewed heaviness and certainly to the bitter, disillusioned and sometimes downright spiteful tone of the lyrics. Niven, of course, had just left the employ of Guns n' Roses, which left a bad taste in his mouth. So it's perhaps fitting that the first sound you hear on the album is one W. Axl Rose ranting and cursing into an answering machine. I've heard a couple different versions of this story: one that the message was left for former manager Vicky Hamilton, the other that Erin Everly, the former sweet child and one-time Mrs. Rose, called Niven in the middle of a fight with Axl. Either way, the results are frightening given Axl's volcanic temper—he doesn't at all sound

... like he's just blowing off steam. I can't say the inclusion of the voice-mail adds to the song though, and was more likely just Niven's way of getting a bit of revenge. The song is one of the aforementioned heavy moments, along with "Step On You," "The Big Goodbye" and "Never Trust A Pretty Face." "The Big Goodbye" was the first single, and I remember hearing it quite a lot on the radio in those last months of 1992, and taking note of its unusual arrangement and trick ending. A side-effect of that arrangement is that the song ends up being nearly six minutes long, and therein lies the album's biggest fault: its ten tracks take up 62 minutes. Only one song comes in under three minutes, and a trio blow past the seven-minute mark, much of it so Mark Kendall can noodle endlessly on the blues. Don't get me wrong, he has some beautiful passages, especially on "Maybe Someday," but the album as a whole should have been 10-15 minutes shorter. "The Big Goodbye" is the best track here, but ot

... other favorites include the title track with or without Axl, "Step On You," "Maybe Someday," and "Doctor Me."
