I was amazed at Tigertailz the first time I heard this lp then thankly it was released on cd...It is one of the few cd's I still listen to from 1989.

From: tomcat Date: May 1, 2001 at 17:52
this was kinda heavy for a glamact. this album still brings a smile on my face;

From: www.yperano.com Date: May 17, 2001 at 13:05
glam on!

From: Logan-Five Date: May 18, 2001 at 21:58
This is not your typical glam band. Kind of a Poison meets Metallica approach to the genre. I remember seeing this on cassette in a 1.00 bin and picking it up on a whim. Songs like Love Bomb Baby and Love Overload, just rock.

From: marc snow Date: June 18, 2001 at 10:51
This is the best Tigertailz' album and have unforgetable songs. Love bomb baby is glam at its best

From: metal_man73 Date: October 31, 2001 at 19:46
COOL COVER!!!

From: Clint Date: November 30, 2001 at 4:41
One of the best albums ever released. Love theur wazbones one....

From: Kim'sbitch Date: January 25, 2002 at 18:25
What can I say! I've been a Tailz fan fro the last 13 years!!! They still totally kick ass! I only wish we got to hear every song full length on this site (PLEASE????) An Ex got Pepsi Tate to phone me up when I was 16 and he was lovely! I'd love to hear every track from the Bezerk LP full length please!!

From: Darren Date: February 1, 2002 at 11:11
I picked this CD up in chicago in a bargin bin. Best buy I had made in a long time. Great album. That was back in 92' It has since been missing. Thank goodness for the huge amounts of information the internet can help you find. D

From: nelly Date: February 3, 2002 at 17:00

From: aj Date: February 13, 2002 at 6:12

From: Lullä Milanese Date: February 21, 2002 at 20:20
It's an excellent album... their debut album was just ok, but this one rocks a lot! Poison, Motley Crue, Cinderella, Tigertailz, Vixen and more = www.hairmetal.hpg.com.br

From: HG Date: March 2, 2002 at 23:21
Great CD! Totally over-the-top. Hooker was a better singer than the other guy.

From: Patrik Ek Date: June 6, 2002 at 4:14
It's an excellent album! A reunion would be nice, anyone know where the band members doing today? /Patrik Ek, Sweden

From: vicflame Date: July 19, 2002 at 2:16
This album will rock you like a hurricane ! Totally glam ! One of the best underrated band ever (and I know what I'm talking about, as I have quite a huge hard rock, glam and metal CD collection) !!! BUY THIS ALBUM, YOU'LL NEVER REGRET IT !!! TIGERTAILZ WILL KICK A HELL OF A ROCK'N'ROLL OUT OF YOU !!!!!!!

From: Desslar Date: July 19, 2002 at 15:03
Great cover! The music is, well, OK. I think overall the first album is harder and better written.

From: Andre Tekken Date: July 31, 2002 at 10:08
Now whe're talking!I bought this record on a trip to London!It is the heaviest glam act i've ever seen!Like it has been said before a perfect cross between Metallica,Poison and Crüe!Kim the second singer have such an agressive,high pich well molded voice!The guitar work is very strong,and the drumming is almost vicious!Melodies stick in your head and choruses larger than life!!Good production and keyboard parts,made by Don Airey!!The same musician from Ozzy Osborn!!

From: Andre Tekken Date: July 31, 2002 at 10:22
Also the cover artwork is great which is Kim going bezerk!All the concept was created by Pepsy the bass player!The lyrics would have inspired any Larry Flynt to put toghether his Hustler magazine!The bublegum look and sounding is great fun to see!You can even notice on the "Heaven"ballad a slight resemblance on Kim's voice,that reminds of Freddie Mercury at times!I even have a T-shirt of the cover of this album!Which I bought also in London!!! For a glam band 90/10!!

From: ChrisUSM Date: August 2, 2002 at 18:21
Tigertailz were the bezt glam band eva - all those who agree email me thisfoolishthing@hotmail.com - al those who disagree.... what the fuck r u doing on a tigertailz page anyways! - if u dig nu metal, thrash, punk or glam - this album is a superb all rounder and should be due a remaster by now - FUCK IF I GET ACCESS TO A MASTER ILL DO IT MYSELF - SERIOUS - I WOULD PAY TO REISSUE THIS CD MYSELF! - Til then get your fat arse to EBAY and get it - then but Wazbonez and the Livin Without you and fuc

From: rocknutter2001 Date: August 24, 2002 at 8:09

From: mikey allen Date: August 27, 2002 at 16:46
one of the best glam rock c.d.s of its time!!!!woo yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

From: EH Date: September 1, 2002 at 21:53
The best glam record eva released!!! Cool image, tuff sound and catchy tunes. A must for any hair collector.

From: Baris Date: September 5, 2002 at 8:14
A really nice album cover. The music very successfully fits the appearence of the band members. This is one of the best glam albums. If you are a Poison, Vinnie Vincent Invasion or Slaughter listener, it is a must to have it. The whole "Side A" is highly recommended. That's all LOVE BOMB BABIESSSS!!!!!

From: Baris Date: November 19, 2002 at 5:22
Of course their (Poison, etc...) harder version.

From: Altay Date: December 30, 2002 at 21:28
i loved everything but the guitar player on this record.guitarwork is very weak.cool cd anyway i lile tigertailz.

From: jason (FA - Q) Date: March 28, 2003 at 19:10
I have to laugh when I hear the song 'Call Of The Wild'. It's quite the anthem. LOL!!! This could have been the song that single handedly killed "hair band" music.

From: tomcat Date: March 28, 2003 at 20:06
what the hell are you talking about...'call of the wild' is a kick ass rock n roll song.... tigertailz are planning a reunion with the members that were on this great album 'bezerk' 'i can fight dirty too'

From: jason (FA - Q) Date: March 29, 2003 at 3:56
Their playing a reunion, huh?...... What? In the singers back yard? LOL! Give me a break 'tomkitty', what's this shit you say about fighting dirty? You ain't seen nothin' yet!

From: SCOTT Date: April 6, 2003 at 20:50
The best Glam/Metal band (and album) ever!

From: c. wicked Date: May 11, 2003 at 11:29
Fuckin' great album! Action city rules! (www.malice-in-wonderland.com)

From: Scandinavia Date: June 9, 2003 at 11:01
You're not a lady you're a love bomb baby, love bomb baby come and blow me away...Can't get enough of your sweet, sweet loving...Come on now uhh baby fire away...Gotta love it! Always had a weird relationship to Tigertailz though...When they're good they're good but when they suck they really suck! They'll never be my fave band unfortunately...Can't get the hang of British glam....Guess i'm a bit too Americanized...But their looks...Man, that's glam!

From: CC Date: October 19, 2003 at 14:47
Bezerk is without a doubt one of the best glam albums ever. The fact that the boyz were one of the few bands to combine glam with heavy metal successfully shows how fucking cool they were! The Kim Hooker era walked all over the Steevi Jaimz era (dont worry Steevi I still luv ya) & at least I had the chance to see them on the Wazbones tour! From what I know all the guyz left the music industry behind! Shame!

From: Demon Date: December 22, 2003 at 0:06
Hands down the best Glam Metal CD of all time.

From: ROB GARCIA Date: January 31, 2004 at 13:09
i have to admit that ive never been to keen in the glam rock department but as far glam rock goes this is definetely one of the best exponents in the genre;actually i recall liking this one very much when it came out.i would describe this as glam rock with balls!!... something that pretty boy floyd always lacked.

From: koogles Date: February 11, 2004 at 19:40
This CD is in the inner circle of elite glam releases. That ring of CDs includes Poison's debut, Pretty Boy Floyd's "Leather Boyz", Foxy Roxx's "Shake the Foundation", Crue's "Dr. Feelgood" and this essential release. The choruses are sing-along in the "Talk Dirty to Me"-"Rock n Roll (is Gonna Set the Night on Fire)" style. Production is explosive to match the music!! Almost impossible not to like, if you're a glam fanatic.

From: Mattman Date: April 8, 2004 at 23:47
This album is great, but I don't consider it to be their best album. Let's face it, these guys should've been huge.

From: Ade Date: May 14, 2004 at 12:40
They're back! Check out http://www.tigertailz.co.uk/ for details!

From: Eugenio "Waite" Date: May 30, 2004 at 3:03
Love Bomb Baby is one of those songs you know the guys came up with this catchy chorus and then made up the song from there. Anyway, great band and great album. Very unique glam metal sound.

From: mushmouth Date: June 17, 2004 at 14:00
Now THIS is how glam should sound, more catchy than a cold yet with a heavyness u will love... they r heavier than most glam bands, but while Love Bomb Baby is not that heavy with its sing-along chorus etc its one of those songs that grows on u quickly then burrows deeeeeep in2 ur brain & gives u no peace.... if ur reading this site then I would very highly recomend this cd (good luck finding it) worth the effort 2 look though

From: Geoff Date: August 29, 2004 at 23:43
I have such a strong dislike of Kim Hooker's voice, but this is a good glam release. I do not think they compare with the majority of US glam bands and would not rate this CD too high, but 'Love bomb baby' and 'Twist and shake' are very cool glam anthems. Aside from that I do like the heavy glam sound they possess, and the songs are good... but I hate 'Heaven' - awful ballad. Overall I admit it, it's good glam CD, just not amazing.

From: Kryiis Karl Date: November 4, 2004 at 13:59
Holly shit !!! I can't believe it. There are a lot of Glam rock die-hards here !!! If you are not a die-hard of the genre (but only like this genre like many others) then this release is quite good, funny and all but easy, who can seriously say that this release (band) is one the best ever ??? I kinda like Tigertailz but only for what they are, a good entertainment band (with an awful vocalist though first one was even worst, like music playing 45 T while singer sings 33 T).

From: Kryiis Karl Date: November 4, 2004 at 14:04
Ok, now, you can go on and throw stones at me, I won't throw them back but just keep in mind I'm not trying to make Tigertailz' fans mad or angry, it is just this over the top enthousiasm is incredible to me (but that's ok, it seems so sincere that I higly respect that).

From: scarecrow Date: December 3, 2004 at 14:07
what an album is it ? supreme

From: Chad Date: December 4, 2004 at 0:17
How cool is Love Bomb Baby? What a killer tune! This one grabbed me from the get-go, great album. Glam? Yes, rock and roll, yes! So much good music on this one. Sing along definately applies here. Catchy hooks and chorus', its got it all. Glam rock with attitude and purpose. Pick this one up. You will not be disappointed.

From: carlos_canalla Date: February 27, 2005 at 18:33
the bible of european glam metal: the coolest record ever......!!!!!!!

From: VinceK81 Date: June 14, 2005 at 13:21
Bezerk in my mind is the top Tigertailz album for a few reasons: the production was far superior to Y&C (granted, they did what they could with Y&C), the album's entire atmosphere is so much more over the top, outrageous, and the songs themselves are F.CKING RIPPING!! The live album/video is a standout! They dominated all other UK bands in '90/'91. SickSex is one of the greatest openers of all time, sure to kick anyone's ass. Looking forward to Bezerk 2.0!!!

From: poproxx2007 Date: December 22, 2005 at 23:23
I remember being one of the only kids that truly loved this when it came out. Good to see so many supporters of this classic. Makes the Top 5 best Glam/Metal Albums of all time-up there with Leather Boyz, Look What The Cat Dragged In and Too Fast For Love.

From: WASP1 Date: June 20, 2006 at 14:34
Really good solid glam album. Not as good as the first one IMHO, but good. I am glad for the re-release that came out last fall.

From: alleyrulez Date: June 20, 2006 at 18:45
I LOVE this one. "Love Bomb Baby" friggin' KILLS. one of the best releases that year.

From: nikki_wikked Date: January 27, 2007 at 11:52
Ahhhh yes Beserk absolutly awsome! Tigertailz where essentially britain version of Poison and in my opinion they where better. Every song on this album is F*cking great www.glambandz.piczo.com

From: Jimbo Date: January 17, 2009 at 15:20
I'm really surprised by the glowing reviews above for this CD. Yes, the band's look and album art were way cool. Yes, the production is a nice mix of edgy guitars and glassy vocals. And yes, the songs mostly hook (even though all but one are instantly forgettable). But Kim Hooker sings like a cat caught in the blades of a riding mower. (And a tone-deaf one at that.) The guy is never in tune with the music. Granted, glam was never about musicianship, with Poison being the prime example of what you could do with a guy who could barely warble singing along to a guitarist who basically was learning every song on the fly. But those guys knew their limitations and worked around them. Tigertailz seem to revel in theirs and put them to the fore. Seriously, besides "Love Bomb Baby", the comically misspelled Bezerk is also comically bad. Avoid it like the well-landscaped feline it is.

From: DNOMYTE Date: May 26, 2009 at 23:15
Very fun album, easily proves that even pretty boys can rock hard. 9/10 from me i listen to this album pretty often and i love it more and more every time.

From: hair metal again Date: January 19, 2010 at 0:43

From: rick kerch vzla Date: February 10, 2011 at 11:48
