I admit this is a poison wanna-be band. However, if you like sleeze vocals, screamin guitars and lyrics with no political views. This is your band. I listen to these guys 3-4 times a week. these songs are just fun, loud and total glam. also get the album Porn Stars.

So what if the Crue was an influence! Or Poison! PBF still have their own sound and big gang vocals. I think all the 80's bands were on the same track in that catagory. This site doesn't have all the PBF cd's listed, but check out Porn Stars and A Tale Of Sex also And the band Shameless too (PBF Vocalist + others)

No offense SleazyMusic. PBF may have had a similar style way back, but Motley had that raw sound on their first 2 cd's. PBF has the way over the top overproduced sound that most glam bands had in those days. I'm not a big fan of overproduced albums, but I have to say this was a great rocker! Even their hair was overproduced! Outragious cd. If you can find the re-release of this cd, there is a bonus track on it called Slam Dunk. Quiet Riot also did the same song on their Alive & Well cd.

OK Sleazymusic, so you don't like PBF? But why do you waste your energy telling us?(Those who love).I think you should use your time to make a good critic of FasterPussycat or BangTango (if you like them) instead of a bad one of PBF.Me I like them all! NO DISCRIMINATION!Here's an advice:Choose to LOVE instead of HATE,open your mind because the more things you like,the more occasions you've got to enjoy life each and every day!

If you like thin guitars and vocals washed in effects churning out rehashed and totally asinine music.......then ya this ones for you. Every song sounds like 'Too fast for love' if the Motleys were $289.00 short of their $300.00 budget to record. Hard to believe they did this with major label funding. The Canadian PBF kicked major ass on this crap. PS How come all the rave reviews appear to be written by the same person ? Probably one of the band members. LOL !!! Sad...truly sad.

Un clasico dentro del glam. Todo el mundo dice que son una copia de Motley,Poison...¿y que mas da? Dentro de su estilo lo hacen de puta madre.Para mi el mejor cd es el 'leather' pero os recomiendo 'porn stars' 'a tales of..' y 'bullets and lipstick' Espero que haya mas gente a la q le guste el glam rock y ojalá venga otra ola de grupos como a finales de los 80, como Faster,Tuff,Britny fox y un largo etc. Ah, escuchad el primer disco de Vain, es glam del bueno.

No way! They are not Poison or Mötley Crüe wannabe! Yes, they covered Toast Of The Town by M. Crue, but it doesn't mean anything. PBF is awsome, loud guitars, sleezy vocals... it smells like the 80's. Perfect. But I think the album A Tale of Sex, Designed Drugs and Death Of Rock N'Roll even better than this one...

Sadly, PBF's humorously titled debut(but fittingly so) 'Leather Boyz With Electric Toyz' has been out-of-print for who-knows-how-long, so those who are curious about hearing one of the catchiest/least original bands out of the late 80's will have to look pretty hard to find it. All of the songs on 'LBwET' are terribly catchy, fun, but were not that original. The talent that the PBF possesses is definitely quite easy to hear but hesitant listeners be warned: this cd is about fun, not originality.
|
From: Motley |
Date: April 9, 2002 at 1:41 |
I think that PBF is the cover of everything that the 80's was all about( Jack D, blonds, strippers, Rnr, crashing, lipstick, big hair, blowjob ballads, kick in-ya face rnrollers) Not specificly any bands...Just averege glam band. But hell I loooooooove the album!!!!! Its a total asskikcer and havent lost any touch 12 years later. Looking 4ard to future realeases with you guys!!!!!!!!!

Hard cd for me to talk about. Liked it a lot and still listen to it ocassionally but forget about the look for a second and tell me ANY late 80's bar band couldn't have wrote songs just as similar?? I think this album might have been the end result of just too much focus for the 'hair bands' image and kinda putting the music as an afterthought. Pretty good though if you dig a 'safe' New York Dolls.

A very good cd. Let's get the rock n' roll party started with this. The fact that this band still alive after all those years (ok there is only the original singer) mean that they really love what they do. They were not a fake band built just for money, they never change their musical direction. It's a shame that song like The wild rule the night, Sex does a body good or a little too hot for hell never made it trhough an official cd. For me those are very good glam anthems.

I remember back in my Hair-Bag days I was told I looked like 'Vinnie Chas'. This band is a costume party gone mad!!!This is a great CD!!! Dynamite, Sleaze & Lipstick with a confetti chaser!!!

These guys were pretty cool (music-wise) and oh-so much more immature and less creative than Poison (the band they knocked-off; hey, MCA had to give Capitol a liiitle competition). When are these guys going to release another studio record? Does anyone know or has the band made any mention of an ambition to work on a new studio release? As for the make-up thing, these guys were over-the-top & looked like total fags dressed up like queens. PBF is 1 of the queerest-looking bands I have ever seen.

These songs are just fun. Especially '48 Hours'...that has to be my favorite song on there. Yes, they do have Poison and Crue sounds, but didn't many other bands in the 80s who weren't too well known? Many bands in the making copied the sounds of more successful bands. Anyway, so what? The songs sound good, much better than what's out now, and at least they all know what a guitar solo is

Speaking of Poison knock-offs, MCA had PBF. Atlantic had Tuff. Honestly, who do you think is better? The biggest difference between Pretty Boy Floyd and Tuff was--besides PBF looking like fags--that instead of trying to knock-off Poison's sound, Rachelle only mimicked Michaels' appearance. Otherwise, Atlantic made a wise choice in signing Tuff to a contract with their label. Let's face it: PBF only got as much attention as they did and STILL DO, is because of their image. Unfair, I think.

dokken I personally think,beside,of course their looks they had such a strong songwritting.Plus they,in my point of view,added some new elements to regular glam music.Also they were better musicians than Poison!And more cativating than Tuff!Can you possibly name ANY band after 1985 who has been totally original on constructing and molding their sound!Cheers mate!

From: dokken6008 |
Date: August 16, 2002 at 4:32 |
A.Tekken-- Oh, I realise that it has all been done before. It is pretty much impossible to perform or play something 'original' in music. Admittedly, the Poison blokes weren't exactly the virtuosos of the 80's, but speaking in terms of stage presence, Poison still to to this day, puts on one of the best rock and roll shows known to man. Andre, your point is taken, but we'll have to agree to disagree on this one. PBF doesn't do much for me, but Poison and Tuff, on the hand, DO.

MTV Awards? That was just before they got in a fight! '90, '91, '92--I'm not sure which year it was. C.C. & Bret were pissed off at each other and started rumbling as soon as they left the stage. Rockett (the drummer), is pretty good. You should hear him doing his 4 to 5 minute drum solos--he's not as bad as you think. Most of the times, Poison is a great, energetic, and all-around fun band to watch live. Of course, Poison DOES in fact sound better in the studio, but what can I tell you? Peace!

I've heard those demos. The sound quality is pretty bad, but a lot of the songs are quite good. 'Give Me a Reason to Stay' could have been a hit if it got a proper release. PBF were one of the most misunderstood bands of their era. People focused too much on the image to realize they had some good songs.

I like Pretty Boy Floyd, but it seems like they cannot write a song without Ariel Stiles.They keep recycling old songs from their archives and release them on various albums.Check out the song credits to alot of their songs and you will see the name Aeriel Stiles listed.I am still waitng for a full-length release with toally BRAND NEW SONGS!!! I am tired of listening to 'Shy Diane' over and over!

What a truly terrible band. There instumental competency is average at best, lyrics are meaningless, I mean, they're no RUSH or METALLICA are they? It's a pity their image was the driving force behind their getting anywhere in the music buisness, like so many other glam bands. The guitar work I guess is not too bad, but compared too many it's pretty average. All in all a rubbish album.....3/10...sorry PBF fans.

You can't compare PBF to Metallica and Rush, you knucklehead! Why don't you compare them to the Beatles while you're at it. PBF's music is all about having mindless fun. It's the quintessential glam CD if you ask me. They feature catchy tunes, good-time lyrics & kickass production. Metallica & Rush are thinking man's metal, representing the polar opposite of PBF. 3 out of 10 represents how many of your brain cells were active while you composed your review. Sorry Metallica/Rush fan.

Easily one of my all time fave albums ever. As a huge Crue/Poison fan I admit their influence is all over PBF but not to the point that they were copying them! I bought the album on tape when it came out,replaced it in CD a few years back & just recently bought the re-released version with extra trax. I have seen PBF live twice & they were fucking fantastic (blew away headliner Faster pussycat at first show). I even had the chance to talk to Steve this year,and he was really cool!

The original album is better than the remaster on Porn Stars, songs like 'Leather...' sound more POWERfull. My favorite song is 'Your Mama Won't Know'. They Gonna 'Set The Nite On Fire' in Spain!!!!! P.D. Last Saturday, I saw Keri Kelly with 'Steven Adler's appetite' in Pamplona. Great!!!!!

If there is anything worse than the band's name, it's the albums title and cover. Having said that, if you can get past all of this, there is some good glam rock on here. Sometimes it gets a little too poppy and sweet ('I Wanna Be With You'), but the Motley Crue cover 'Toast Of The Town' is excellent. 5/10

I still think it's funny that this band has had more demo releases than actual albums. These guys were nothing but fun back in my highschool days. Waaaaaaay over the top glammy style and more makeup than Mary Kay and Avon put together. I actually had a female friend ask me about this cd about a week ago. She couldn't remember the bands name, but wanted the I Wanna Be With You song we used to listen to. It brought back alot of memories as we listened to it again.

Okay, so it might not technically be the ebst CD out there, but this is glam perfection. Every single track is a killer - not even a hint of a filler, and this is one of my most played albums. I still can't decide if this or 'Look what the cat dragged in' is the best glam hard rock album ever released. Either way, highlights include 'Rock n'roll (it's gonna set the nite on fire)','The last kiss', 'Only the young' and 'Wild angels' - but I love them all. Killer CD!!!

Great album, and excellent live. Have seen them 3 times over the last 3 years, they sound, well,GREEEAAT. Steve had to sing without mic...boy, that guy can sing...which makes a change.

It wasn't Nirvana and the grunge scene that disabled hardrock/ metal in the late 80's/early 90's.It was the oversaturation of no talent sub-par glam bands like PBF,Tuff,Poison etc. that crippled the genre,this ilk of lousy bands were the real deathnail in that period leading to the alternative explosion.However,unlike these bands true metal like( Priest,Saxon,Scorpions,Dio,Maiden,Primal Fear,W.A.S.P.etc will never die . ----

Metal T, that's a foolish opinion I thought sensible people had grown out of. So you don't like glam? Fair enough, but don't blame the imminent downfall of hard rock / metal (just like every 'trend' before) on glam bands. If people didn't like glam there were still plenty of hard rock / metal acts to keep interested people happy. You shouldn't let these kind of releases bother you. There are plenty of us out there who think albums like these are awesome, and great for what they are.

Somehow I felt they came out a little to late. They probably could have done better if they were a couple years earlier. I remember the video and it did catch my attention. I thought it was interesting and I kinda liked to be honest. I liked alot of stuff in the day that I probably wouldn't give hardly anytime now. The video Rock n roll and the ballad were the ones I remember seeing. They had the same problem the market had been pretty well saturated with these kind of bands before they came.

Up with 'Too Fast For Love' and 'Look What The Cat Dragged In"-1981,1986,1989 had the definitive glam cd's which all are measured. At the time I said this is one of the greatest records of all time. Better than The Beatles, Zeppelin, Cheap Trick, Kiss, Van Halen and Guns N Roses. In 2005 Its hard for me to proclaim the best cd of all time but up there. 10/10

I had already pretty much decided that I wanted this album before I had even heard Pretty Boy Floyd's music back in late 1989. The album cover artwork almost had the feel of an old Kiss album like "Destoyer" or "Love Gun" or something...with the illustration of the 4 band members looking larger than life. it definitely got my attention... and I had a feeling that it would be something that I would really like. Then I heard the that opening, palm-muted riff of "Rock And Roll (Is Gonna Set The Night On Fire)" late one night on MTV's Headbangers Ball...and my face lierally felt like it was going to melt. Whoah! I was instantly hooked! The perfect blend of Poison's "Look What The Cat Dragged In"-type songs, combined with the gritty sound of Motley Crue's "Too Fast For Love".

They even introduced me (and probably a lot of other people) to an old obscure Motley Crue demo song "Toast Of The Town" (which I don't think was available anywhere at that time...unless you could miraculously track down an old Motley Crue demo). To this day, I actually prefer the PBF version over the original, which says a lot. Excellent stuff from beginning to end.

Now, y'all know me well enough from other posts to know I'm not one of those people that pick on hair-metal out of principle. I grew up on it and still listen to a lot of it. But there's no way I can defend Pretty Boy FLoyd. This is the kind of hair-metal that makes you feel dumber after listening. You an trace the lineage directly from Kiss's most mindless songs (a la "Tomorrow And Tonight") and '70's bubblegum pop, on through their most obvious reference, early Poison. There's just not much here. If Kurt Cobain killed hair-metal, it was bands like PBF handing him the bullets.

I still don't have this but from the few songs I've heard, I think I'm going to like it. Really enjoyable. But I still remember the interview that I read from them from a magazine that they talk like they started the whole glam thing. Like all of the other bands that wear make-up got the idea from them.

Not the most original band in the world but this album really kicks ass.

"I Wanna Be With You" is just absolutely pitiful. Here, PBF have spent nine songs posing and posturing and pretending to be real crazy-wild rawker dudes, and then top it off with a high-school-romance song about walking in the park with the new girl in class. Seriously, YouTube it or read the lyrics if you never heard it and don't believe me. It's much closer to something New Kids On The Block would've done, rather than PBF's stated idols Motley Crue would ever think of on their worst day.

Doghouse - I have some bad news as last summer something happened as rare as a lunar solar eclipse ISN'T going to occur this year. Pretty Boy Floyd and Dirty Penny together on the same concert bill. No surprise, the Dirty Penny appearance was FREE (link below). The band must play for a bar tab because I saw a local advertising for DP playing in So Cal with the FREE concert policy. Rock N America didn't happen this year and with Rocklahoma's downward spiral I only saw a couple smaller shows like the 'MP3 Rock Festival' in MD. LA Guns, Firehouse, Kix, worth seeing. All I have on the calender now is the Monsters of Rock Caribbean Cruise next February. Bring your own date with body guard as I assume it will be 90% aging rocker dudes. I have some Cd rarities that I think would be up your alley if you shoot me a email I can send you a rip. rockdrop@knac.com http://m3rock.webs.com/ http://www.rocknamerica.com http://www.themonstersofrock.com/html/announcement_of_the_first_annu.html

For what it is and for what i think it set out to achieve... Not exactly original, but a perfect distillation of all their influences into one potent album (look no further than the cover). Sounding like a cross between 'Look what the cat dragged in' & 'girls, girls, girls' on steroids. PBF where for one moment in time great... this was it. With the look, production and a handful of Ariel Styles songs, they made a real fuckin' good album. I love the drumming & Summers voice is just the coolest since Vince Neil. Sweet Perfection!

30 years after its release and it is still one of my favourite albums. It is cheesy, it is bubblegum but it is catchy as hell. I will say though that sometimes less is more. The re-issued version of it from the early 2000s put a bunch of tracks on it as bonus songs and I really wish they had not as most of them are just nowhere near as good as the original tracks, and some of them have absolutely no place on here. The only worthy addition was Slam dunk, which was the bonus track on the original Japanese release, and is actually one of their best songs (well it was actually an unreleased Quiet Riot song that the recorded, and is better than the version QR recorded later in their career).

This album summed up the glam metal scene for better or worse. Better in my opinion. I love this disc still. The title is something of a meme in itself. Rock N Roll is an essential slice of 80s metal, in the top 100 of the genre. The music is fun. The costumes are glam. The Boyz might look like ladies but they also love them and sing about them, and partying etc. Nothing wrong with a good time. Grade A.
