In my opinion one of the best rock releases ever. Great catchy songs, great riffs, and strong and funny lyrics. Not a weak track.

From: Curious B	Date: February 1, 2002 at 11:19
This is good stuff!! These Euro Rockers lay down some great Sleaze/Glam metal. This is definitely a good buy!!!

From: Drag-in-Bones	Date: March 11, 2002 at 0:18
'Disneyland After Dark'. Hard driving,streamlined rock infused with western style melodies played on the twangiest guitar.Abbreviated for obvious reasons after a beyound-the-grave Walt,(Walt Disney) started aplying pressure, There are a few albums out that say 'Disneyland After Dark' get your hands on those.$$$ A rating well worth a 10!!!AS for the video?Gotta love those cartoons!

These guys are excellent! I always enjoy hearing them.

From: bobbydazzler	Date: April 2, 2002 at 6:34
These guys continue to put out great music. Their album Everything Glows is killer!!!

From: DAMNHARDROCKER	Date: April 20, 2002 at 17:34
Total cool release. Anyopne who doesnt know this band is really missing some good stuff...............And I even have some cool bootlegs.

From: Reno	Date: May 3, 2002 at 0:48
This was a little off the wall when I first heard it and I wasn't very impressed. I got bored with other cd's and tried this one again and after a few spins...I liked it. Interesting guitar and vocals to say the least.

From: TIM	Date: May 15, 2002 at 21:18
Well Drag-in-Bones, I'm fixing to lay down the cash for the banned cover. I've been wanting it forever.

From: TIM	Date: June 1, 2002 at 17:23
It arrived today. I got lucky on this one because the seller forgot to state 'banned cover.' I got it for $16.50 instead of the usual $52.

From: Kim	Date: June 3, 2002 at 16:30
Tim, What does the Banned cover look like.??

From: Kim	Date: June 3, 2002 at 16:31
By the way.......................... Their latest release really sucks. Its called Soft Dogs. If you`re a rocker...Avoid it.

From: TIM	Date: June 3, 2002 at 17:27
The banned cover has Disneyland After Dark at the top instead of D.A.D., other than that it is identical. I heard they had a newer release than Soft Dogs. You say they lost their edge, eh? I haven't heard it yet.

From: TIM	Date: June 3, 2002 at 17:28
Hey Kim, I had some questions for you in the Glorious Bankrobbers section.

From: Cotton C. Lover	Date: June 8, 2002 at 2:02
Loved the song 'point of view' the most on this album. 'Lords of the Atlas' and 'Sleepin' My Day Away' are my solid, too. If you liked this sound, check out 'Riskin' It All', their second release. They softened their sound up on later albums.

From: Tony	Date: June 26, 2002 at 22:56
Never quite got these guys. I own this cd and really want to like it but it does nothing for me. It has kinda a cool AC/DC meets The Ramones thing going on but the songs , in my own opinion, just really sit there and do nothing. 'Sleeping My Day Away' is great and the people I know who dig this album REALLY dig it so if you dig this stuff get it as I'm sure I'm in the minority here.

From: ARXONTAS	Date: December 20, 2002 at 8:47
If you want to call your self a hard rocker you must own this album.Νο one can deny this .Another one 10+ on ARXONTAS scale. ABSOLUTELY NO ALTERNATIVE

From: Great Dane	Date: February 19, 2003 at 1:25
Hey. Check the homepage od DAD. www.dad.dk It really has some neat features. I wish more bands would do the same.

From: SPOTLIGHT	Date: May 12, 2003 at 1:52
This was the BEST album the band ever release. 'Rim Of Hell' is cool.

From: Scandinavia	Date: June 28, 2003 at 16:37
Ahh yes, this was their heyday...Very energetic rock'n'roll with a punk feel to it at times...Sounds weird but it's actually very cool (In my ears at least). If you haven't heard 'Sleeping...' yet you don't know what rock'n'roll is...Their breakthrough album too & it sure is understood. Great, great, great...'Rim of hell' is one helluva drinking song...

From: Blue Tequila

Sleeping My Day Away got some decent airplay on MTV and is the reason I got the tape (and later on the CD). The album does have some punk undertones but D.A.D did a good job mixing it up with a sound that was popular at the time. Too bad they didn't make it big here but I'm glad for all the success they've had in Europe. Hey Scandinavia, I bet you get a couple chances a year to see them live. I hear they put on some excellent shows but I don't think we'll ever see them tour the states again.

From: Scandinavia

Date: June 29, 2003 at 4:04

Hehe yes, Blue Tequila...I actually just saw them 'bout a month ago. Hats off to their live shows. Lotsa energetic activity around the stage...They can light up any venue with that show...And I mean 'light up' litterally. Lotsa fireworks, explosions & so on...The pyrotechnics have more or less become a trademark for them. I wa a little late for the concert (open air) but when I arrived Jesper yelled: 'How do U do?' (about 7 times)..and then: 'Riding with Sue' & it all kicked off. That track is

From: Scandinavia	Date: June 29, 2003 at 4:06
...From their 'cowpunk' period...Very cool live! Of course they ended the show with an extended version of 'Sleeping...'. However they played too many new songs in my opinion...

From: RR-Finland

Date: September 4, 2003 at 6:15

D:A rocks, that's for sure! 'Sleeping..' was my first experience to this band and whole record (No Fuel..) was dynamite. I have't seen them on the stage, but in the live videos they are wild. Once they played on Finnish tv-show called 'Tuhkaa ja Timanttia'(Diamons & Ash) and I remember Stig had this grazy bass guitar, where was only 2 strings on it! That show was hosted, by the way, some members of Finnish band called Leningrad Cowboys, graziest band in the world. Anyway, this is quality stuff

From: robert	Date: December 15, 2003 at 21:43
Me gusta este disco, no esta nada mal!!! Imposible q sea malo, es del 89'!!

From: Metal Pete

Date: December 29, 2003 at 18:26

I love this band. I have all their stuff. 'Sleeping My Day Away' and 'Girl Nation' got me to buy it, and man the whole thing KICKS! What style! Buy 'Riskin' It All' too--every bit as good. After that, 'Helpyourselfish' is very heavy, even more so than the first two. 'Simpatico' has some good tunes. 'Everything Glows' is a refreshing blast...but Kim is right. 'Soft Dogs' should be left alone. 'We're the lords...the lords of the Atlas!'

From:	Date: January 6, 2004 at 15:17
Only good reviews here, not funny...but I can't say any bad thing about this album : it is great, really a must have, with incredible gimmicks a la Shadows that could have sounded ridiculous...but not with DAD. Vocalist is not a great tehcnician but he has lots of personality and style.

From: Mike	Date: April 20, 2004 at 8:14
Excellent record! Plain, simple rock'n'roll with a lot of groove and some incredible songs. My favourites have to be 'Girl Nation', 'Jihad' (well, not for the title!!!) and 'Sleeping My Day Away'... Great album!

From: Scandinavia	Date: April 23, 2004 at 1:35
A little bragging here...Just found this one with the ORIGINAL BANNED COVER for about 6 bucks in a second hand shop...

From: Lee Ratbag	Date: May 15, 2004 at 14:15
Best album by one of the best bands ever. Simple as that.

From: LM Osasuna	Date: May 26, 2004 at 6:55
A great hard rock album very special too! D.A.D. aren't a mix between of bands, they are just D.A.D, a band with a lot of personality and good tunes like ... all the tunes include in this cd! I didn't think this is a glam band like says the category box above. It can distract some hard rock fanatics from a good buy!

From: CC	Date: June 1, 2004 at 13:46
Not only is this a great fucking album,the band are hilarious in interviews too. I remember seeing one on video where Stig (if I remember correctly) was asked what he wanted from fame,he said 'New shoes & a warm place to shit!'

From: Gabriel Alves	Date: June 17, 2004 at 4:28
This is a one song worth record. Sleeping My Day Away is the best track. The rest does not take off. You listen to the first song and think it's great, that it's gonna be a kick ass album. After the third track you get pissed off because there is nothin' like the first song that gets you fire up. It's like a cold shower!!It's very interesting the use of clean guitars with heavy guitars!

From: Big Papa K	Date: July 17, 2004 at 19:28
I could not put it any better than Gabriel does in his review above. 'Sleeping My Day Away' is a great opening track and after hearing it on a compilation cd, I had high hopes for this album. But nothing else rises above average here and while it is not bad, the first song is just so good that the rest pales in comparison. 6/10

From: Geoff	Date: August 19, 2004 at 2:39
'Sleeping my day away' is obviously a great song and there are a few fillers in between, but my fave has always been 'Wild talk'. Killer tune. Overall, I admit I don't really listen to this album much these days but it is a great snappy hard rock album with very cool songs on it. It always goes for cheap, so I definately recommend it. I love their lyrics.

From: Rycheage	Date: November 21, 2004 at 19:38
I agree with Geoff and Big Papa K on this one. After 'Sleeping My Day Away' it falls on life support. What a let down after a great beginning song. I sold this one almost right after I burned it. I have 'Sleeping....' on a compilation disc so no need for this one. 6.5/10.

From: Metal Pete	Date: November 22, 2004 at 9:18
Have to disagree with some of you that 'Sleeping' is the only good track here. 'Point of View', 'Lords of the Atlas', 'Girl Nation', 'Rim Of Hell', 'Wild Talk' and 'Ill Will' are all strong tracks and make this record much more than a 'one hit wonder'. I find it a refreshing disc all the way through!

From: Hairball John	Date: November 26, 2004 at 21:17
'Sleeping My Day Away' was featured during this weeks Hairball John Radio Show. It is always a fun song to play. Check out The Hairball John Radio show every week at www.hairballjohn.com for many of the lost classics and new kick ass tunes. The Hairball John Radio Show the past is back to kick your ass!

there's something special with this band... I can't say a thing that i don't love 'bout them...

From: Aussie Dave

Very cool release from these Danish rockers! Good mix between rock n roll and heavy metal. Sleeping My Day Away and Girl Nation were pretty big hits for D.A.D. and put them on the map worldwide! Unfortunately they couldn't quite match this great album on future releases! Rim Of Hell, Jihad and Ill Will are also my faves from this one. One of the better releases just before grunge broke out! 9/10.....

From: Rafo Phoenix	Date: June 9, 2005 at 0:45
Nice Hard Rock Album, muy simpatico con ese sonido de guitarras vaqueras y Rockandrolleras con fuerza y bueno tiene su gusto no sera la gran cosa pero esta Bueno. si vemos el album en conjunto buenas canciones en todo el disco que hacen un buen disco. quiza a puristas de estilos en particular no agrade mucho pero a un amante del Rock en todo terreno seguro le gustara.

From: aMetalhead1966	Date: January 18, 2006 at 13:36
I remember this being real good when it came out....haven't heard it in a long time...I wish it could be remastered...oh well

From: Fat Freddy

Date: February 9, 2007 at 17:06

This is a cool, but weird, little disc by a band that combines the glam-rock sound with a quirky, laid back 'cowboy' feel. Apparently these guys are still quite popular in their native Europe but as far as the U.S. goes they fell off the radar after a minor hit in 'Sleepin' My Day Away.' 'Sleepin'' is an excellent, catchy track, as is 'Jihad,' but my favorite is 'Rim Of Hell,' where, if the band is to be believed, they throw the 'BEST DAMN PARTIES!'

From: metalmastermusic	Date: July 25, 2008 at 10:25
This is the only album of theirs that I remotely cared for. As mentioned above there are a few catchy songs on here but nothing outstanding. None of their albums are must have discs. 77/100

From: rick kerch vzla	Date: September 13, 2008 at 13:06
In accordance with metalmastermusic...undoubtebly this is their finest album.I dunno if this is strictly glam (in some parts their sound is a little bit Motorhead and in others a little bit of Ramones),probably Fat Freddy is more accurate..."Sleeping My Dad Away"(funny),"Wild Talk","Girl Nation" are nice songs that you'll dig right away!!!.88/100

From: rockhardrock	Date: May 28, 2009 at 16:53
this album has different sound than most of the bands-it has some strange sound (i can't explain what kind) which i had never heard before, so i was very surprised.the good thing is they are still active, the bad is they changed the sound to worse. my favs: Sleeping My Day Away, Jihad, Girl Nation and Wild Talk

From: Auslander

Date: April 8, 2021 at 5:34

When I got this album I was blown away and had to read everything I could about it. The sound was often described as "cowpunk" like a combination of western music and punk rock. Of course we all know that there is a healthy dose of sleaze in it as well! But I think cowpunk is a good descriptor. The funniest thing is this is a Danish band playing this American style, but I guess some of the best Western movies were Italian, so go figure. Sleeping My Day Away is of course in the top 100 of any 80s hard rock song list. Girl Nation is almost as good. Awesome, original-sounding release. 88/100.

From: Megatron

Date: April 10, 2024 at 7:52

Their personality is what makes this. To be honest, I haven't cared for it much up until this particular moment, but I'm pretty stoned and I'm pretty locked in to their groove right now! Pretty unique stuff. I'd have liked a tougher production, but I can see how others like it the way it is. I'm just a tougher sort of fella, is all. Shrug.. An achievement, if only because they managed to carve out a sound for themselves that isn't played out and derivative, you know? Probably won't like it again once I'm sober, though..

From: Dramarama	Date: May 4, 2024 at 21:26
This was one of my favorite albums as a teenager and I'm pretty sure I know every word to every song. Point of View is my favorite track but honestly every song is a banger.
