| What a disappointment, in the musically hellish year of 1995, to find that Skid Row was coming out with a new album, and to wait eagerly to get it ... and it's so mediocre. You can tell Baz is doing his best to seize control on this one, and the songs suffer. They try so hard to be Pantera, and Baz screams his balls off every chance he gets, far too often. THe good songs are 1, 5, 9, 11, and 12. One good thing is the production which is as good as on Slave to the Grind, if a little more polished

| I have to agree with Fizzy on this one! BUT they did a even better Pantera record than Pantera could do! (not including 'cowboys from hell', when Phil was still 'singing':-) Skid Row = all-time favorite (w.Sebastian offcourse) Does anyone have the site to Sebastian Bach???????

| A totally new and very controversial Skid Row! No matter good or bad, after their former albums at first this really creates a shock! Because there is the domination of dark metal and alternative-rock here. No hair, no hard-rock at all. Some people will love, die for it and some will disgust! I'm neighter of them but I have to admit sth: Even if alternative is not my kinda music, it's so strange that this is a pretty good album, even better than the real damn grungers!

| Skid Row going thrash metal?Thats right.Every self respecting hard rock group trying to find its routes in the big Heavy Metal family.Sometimes they try to be like their idols,groups that they love to heard when they were kids.Thats not fault.The fault is to 'sell out' for some dollars more and trying to be the new Nirvana or the new Backstreet Boys.Frozen's mind-tempo thrash metal and excellent balland Eileen will crush your skull...Absolutely No Alternative

| If I'm not mistaken, this came out after they had toured with the likes of Anthrax, Pantera and other heavier acts. It seems to have definitely influenced the release. Definitely not a consistently great disc, but there are some real ass-kickers on here.

| Un buen disco q´ no tiene nada q´ver con sus otros discos si lo comparas con el primer LP parecen dos bandas diferentes hata su himagen cambio.Tal vez en 1995 se quisieron colgar del exito de badas como Pantera y edurecieron su sonido. El disco es sucio,fuerte y en ocaciones parece una banda Thrash.Si te gusta Hard Rock no lo compes pero si te gusta el Thrash ,la musica fuerte y estas buscando algo diferente te lo recomiendo.

| Skids does it again.Again, they make a right turn toward individuality when evey other band turned left toward the white shirts.First listen I was with everyone else and thought it was a Pantera clone.No?It actually sounds heavier than it is.A bit more than Slave, but not quite Cowboys From Hell.I liken it to a smarter STP.Bach's voice is even better on this release as he hits ranges few can do, gutteral to screams (you have to love the screams).This grows on you after a few, so give it a shot.

| cuando me lo compre me quede flipado se me cayeron los webos al suelo, no es que sea malo ni mucho menos pero no me sonaba a skid row, me sonaba mas bien a pantera con seb bach a la voz,los unicos temas que son algo decentes son 'breakin down' y 'elein' los demas son como si fueran canciones desechadas de pantera,una decepcion mas en los 90 desde luego la decada mas esperpentica de la historia de la musica,los 90 fue como un virus para las grandes bandas de los 80,acabo con casi todas.

| 'Slave to the Grind' saw Skid Row adopt a heavier and more aggressive sound, while still churning out great anthemic songs. 'Subhuman Race' continues with the heavier style, but unfortunately doesn't deliver the musical goods like its predecesors did. There are a few strong tracks on this(in particular 'Into Another'), but the rest are bland 90s metal. Heavy? Yes. But it lacks the personality and charm of their previous releases.

| The reason this Cd did not sell is because it is uniformly shite from pretty much beginning to end. It has nothing to do with selling out it is a matter of taste-to which Slik has little based upon the deranged warblings here. I am sure many are quaking at the thought of upsetting you.

| Not a bad album although hardly their greatest. Some songs absolutely rock but some are kinda shitty. This is by far their heaviest album. Too bad this album didn't come out a few years later cuz it coulda been huge! This album deserves about a 7.5-8 rating (as it currently is).

| If you like loud, de-tuned guitars and songs that have little melody then this is the album for you. A total sell out influenced by the Pantera's of this world (Halford's Two anyone) and pretty much alienated 95% of their fan base, hence the very poor sales. It took years for the band to recover from this. Good as the production is a class album needs songs...this lacks them.

| A very poor effort by one of my favourite sleaze/glam metal bands of all time. Slave to the grind and their debut album is much better than these one. Unoriginal(pantera like sounding) and lack the feel that makes the such a great band in the late 80's and early 90's. Such a shame!

| This one will turn off a lot of fans, and I don't blame you, but if you give it a few listens it does show that it is a strong disc. The hooks are not as immediate, but after a while you will begin to realize the quality of some of these songs ("My Enemy", "Frozen", "Breakin' Down"). 7/10

| I don't think hooks will be that noticeable here! LET'S face it,its the 90's,not the glorious 80's era where hooks were everywhere around any poison,motley crue,wasp,quiet riot,ratt,scorpion and yes,skid row album. You will never find a 90's album as 'hookier' as ratt's out of the cellar album.

| Wow, that rating is really harsh! Although the band sound far inferior musically to earlier releases (What happened?!), this is still a good heavy metal album. 'Eileen' is brilliant, 'Into another' is cool hard rock and yes, I am being honest, 'Breakin' down' is sincerely one of my favourite songs ever. A gem of a track. I also really dig 'My enemy' and the rest is good metal. The band sound nowhere near as good or solid musically as they did 'Slave to the grind'-era, but it's a good album!

| *Sigh.* Just paid 7 euros for this in a local store, listened it through once, and if it wasn't for Bach's divine voice I couldn't possibly have guessed I'm listening to Skid Row. Nothing stuck to my ears; no melodies, no choruses, no hooks, no nothing. OK, many people here have told to give it a few tries before it grows on you, but sadly this just isn't the kind of music I like. The production is fine but doesn't save the day in my books. I want the Skid Row of the first two albums. Not this.

It deserves a couple of more spins, but then it really grows on you, and you'll be able to tell thatt this is a true Skid Row masterpiece. Not as good as Slave To The Grind, but equally as amazing as their debut! Melodic, aggressive and classic! 9.5/10

| Skid Row were my Favorite Band back in the day, but by 1995, I had about given up on hearing new music from them. Just seemed too long since Slave To The Grind. So imagine my delight when this disc came along. Actually, I don't remember thinkign it was all that great at the time, and not because of the heavier direction, which I liked. I just didn't feel the songs were that strong. But Subhuman Race is a definite grower. Skid Row didn't disgrace themselves at all. Nope, "Youth Gone Wild" and "18 And Life" are long gone, with virtually nothing remaining of the sound from the debut. It might not be heavier than Slave To The Grind musically, but it feels that way because there aren't as many immediately catchy hooks, and the mood seems a tad less angry in places, but also darker. Favorites would be "My Enemy," "Beat Yourself BLind," "Eileen," "Frozen," "Into Another," "Medicine Jar," and the vicious "Ironwill."

The Skids couldn't escape the temptation of recording an album with the sound of that moment(grunge/alternative)and some fans were dissapointed obviously(they sound here like a more metallic version of Soundgarden)...the album itself is not bad or could be,better said, appealing for open minded listeners(if you are one) but if you are into early SR then you'll puke 4 sure..."My Enemy","Bonehead","Beat Yourself Blind","Subhuman Race","Breakin' Down"(nice semi soft)& "Iron Will"(with that funny hidden track in it) are my faves...70/100

| The very first comment "...trying to be Pantera" is unfortunately true. How a band can really get lost. The only killer song and sole survivor is "Into Another", which is awesome. It's OK to develop, but sometimes artists can take it way too far, following trends and forget their core, that was great choruses all over the first two and the only great albums they ever did.
