| Rumor has it, that the Pair-A-Dice CD was never pressed as a Pair-A-Dice CD (not even on the small Japanese Monster Label), but that the tunes they played on the sunset strip, are the songs that you find on the Lancia s/t CD. Listen to the song Sweet Melody, when Paul says "You remember those tunes we used to sing" (I guess, he is referring to the sunset days). But don't take my word, I'm just passing on second or even third hand information. Take care... Metal 4 Life

| WOW...This is a KILLER rocking CD. This skyrockets into my top 5...totally awesome all the way through...tracks 1-3 totally kick your ass, 4 is a pretty good ballad, 5 is a melodic rocker and in the right time period would have been a big radio hit..."Jimmy" totally smacks of Dr. Feelgood...very highly recommended and worth the money you'll have to spend for it (unless you're totally lucky like Kim)...If you don't have it, GET IT...Rock on!!!

| Okay, this release is just awesome, period. This is as good as it gets, seriouisly. I have one small growl aboutthis CD though, everybody seems to say 'Sweet Melody' is the best song, which I strongly disagree! I think it's okay, BUT just Listen to 'Pain Sweet Symphony' or 'Goodbye' twice and this release will have new life in your collection, TAKE IT FROM ME. Also, get it if you don't have it, needless to say it's a 10, more like a 22, but i'll stick with the scale!!!

| From: HairMetalManiac |

| Hey Ripper, I couldn't agree with you more...Track 2 is my Favorite song off of this one as well. I loved it the first play through...the guitars and drums rock you hard with kick ass lyrics...a real tight tune...I think people say that "Sweet Melody" is the best tune because it is probaly the most radio friendly song on the album...also, it is very melodic and therefore holds appeal over a wider range of rock listeners...well, that's my opinion anyway...Rock On!

| Tim, I have paradise demos on CD if you want a copy. Lancia rule, Paul Lancia is a perfect frontman, I agree sweet melody is a fantastic song which has you singing along first listen, the ballad still in love with you is awesome as well, one of the many great bands from the sunset strip.

| Hey guys, nothing against LANCIA (I love this album)but if you want to hear to something you have never heard before, then get L I O N 1988. That is gonna kill you.....
|
| From: TheRipper |
Date: May 10, 2003 at 18:35 |
| Hey Fox, what do you mean get L I O N? like the band Lion? It can't be "Dangerous Attraction" (1987) or "Trouble In Angel City" (1989)? There's also an earlier 80's release called Lion (different band, a S/T), but none of those could be what you speak of, L I O N 1988? Does this L I O N sound like Lancia, just wondering why you brought it up, not to mention trying to figure ou who you're talking about?

| "Sweet melody! Makes me wanna sing...!" Sorry, guys thought I was a little school girl... uh, I mean boy again. 'Sweet melody' is an extremely catchy and awesome song - perfect commercial hard rock. 'Pain sweet symphony' is killer hard rock, 'Still in love' is a beautiful heartfelt ballad, 'Goodbye' and 'The promise' are great too. A couple of fillers on the disc, but overall a killer slab of commercial hard rock. Highly recommended.

| This band fits in with the Van Halen, BulletBoys, White Lion crowd--wide open "recording in the rec room" production values, lots of talent and a penchant for heavier hair metal and hard rock. But my beef is that these guys seemed to take themselves too seriously. The cover photos are hilarious (zero smiles, too few shirts), and the songs are kind of stilted in spots as if they were afraid to just open it up. All in all, a better than average slice of hair metal worth a listen, but not a fave.

| I can't believe how many people want this one. I've made a few copies over the last week or two, and even tried to listen to this one again. I guess it is ok, but I'm still think it is alittle over-rated. If anyone wants a copy of this, remind me not to listen to it this time around.

| From: J Campbell |
Date: February 15, 2005 at 13:12 |
| Hey Dave, thanks for the copy! After listening to it, I have to agree with you, it's a pretty average sounding cd. Nothing really stands out and makes you want to hear it again.

| Greatest band in the indie’s american scene of ever,IMO.They joint in a perfect way melodick hard rock with killer glam riffs and rhythms,awesome voice by Paul Lancia,fantastic and stunning choruses around all killer songs performed by high quality musicians,really a shame they didn t sign for a major(especially for production,excellent but not awesome and guitar solo soundings).Can t live without hearing this cd once every 2 months,they are not inferior to cult bands like Danger Danger,Tyketto

 Sweet Melody rules Great track pure Melodic Hard Rock, Goodbye, Jimmy are 2 very good tracks too, en si el album tiene sus temas como los mencionados en conjunto no es tan bueno como el Barcelona pero tiene sus chispasos un album muy dificil de ubicar por mi parte le doy un 7/10 claro que si lo tuyo es el Hard Rock seguro te gustara tenerlo aunque aca practican desde Hard Rock, Sleazy Rock y Hard Melodico.

| Very nice melodic metal keeping the 80's metal alive. Lancia is a bit hard to describe as they are similar in style to a softer Dokken, but similar to Warrant, Firehouse, Cry Wolf...By now you get the picture. Yes Sweet Melody, Goodbye and The Promise are three killers. From track 1 to 9 the cd is a 10/10. The last two tracks are very week and boring. You can skip. They may also appeal to fans of Skid Row.

| I would have to agree with Dave on this. Not really that much that stands out on this one. It is (and has) a solid melodic rock sound to it and should appeal to "hair" fans. There just is not really a standout song on it. It is very listenable and sounds good it just does not "stick" with me. I have listened to it dozens of times yet I could not tell you the name of any of the tracks. This one is very vanilla. Good yes but not really worth remembering.

| GREAT f-n album! Hadn't heard this in awhile...until recently and still sounds fantastic.Well crafted tunes,great guitar work and some d*mn fine vox from Paul.That 'Pain Sweet Symphony' geez-that still tears some serious ass.'Goodbye' etc.. all good stuff,Pisses all over alot that was out at the time.Distribution channels for this disc were never too good and this sucker deserves all the reissue/remaster/rerelease treatment it can get.Saw Walsh w/DLR many years ago and he sounded great.

| When i started to listen to this album i was astonished with the open track "You Can't Keep A Good Man Down" with that energetic beat and some killer bass lines courtesy of Mr Billings but then the second track made me feel like ???¿¿¿...didn't like it at all and of course i was temerous that the rest of the album was on the same line,i mean,one good song and then disaster but man was i mistaken!!!..after track 3 all hell broke loose!!!being the highlight song "Sweet Melody" with that mix of Glam and AOR...

| ...and not 2 mention "Still In Love" (beautiful),"Goodbye","Tattooed Love Toy" and "The Promise"...shamely the band couldn't break through as Grunge was filtering every kid's brain...anyway,great album perhaps one of the best underrated Glam/HR albums of the beggining of the 90's...i'll give this a 90/100

| Awesome vocals and guitar on this one! Highly recommended for MHR fans (especially Hardline,Brunette,Firehouse enthusiasts). #6 is my personal fav.(see it on YouTube); even though I love some of the others. At least 8.7+ in my book.

| One of the greatest melodic hard rock/hair-metal indies to ever grace the scene, and worth every damn penny you spend to obtain a copy for your collection. I would rather gouge my eye out with a rusty spoon and then be skull-f*cked by an elephant than go without this CD.
