W.A.S.P.’s self-titled 1984 debut captures the band’s early mix of heavy metal riffs, sleaze and oversized choruses. Blackie Lawless’s rasp drives “I Wanna Be Somebody,” “L.O.V.E. Machine” and “Tormentor,” with the band keeping the arrangements direct and aggressive. This clear-vinyl edition revisits the record that introduced their theatrical sound before the more elaborate concept albums that followed.

“Lots of catchy riffs, nice soloing, and generally straightforward songwriting”
