Description

Amazon.co.uk At a certain point, bad taste and bombast becomes so excessive and so grandiose that they're no longer an easily dismissed irritation but an astonishing monument to the warped imagination. Such a monument is Meat Loaf's Bat Out of Hell II: Back Into Hell, the long-delayed sequel to 1977's Bat Out of Hell. Once again songwriter/producer Jim Steinman has isolated high-school parking-lot aphorisms and inflated them to Wagner-on-Broadway proportions, casting Mr. Loaf as a heavy-metal Ezio Pinza. Typical of the album's strategy is its big hit single, "I'd Do Anything for Love (But I Won't Do That)". Steinman piles on the guitars, drums, synthesizers, and choral voices as if he were Phil Spector producing Kiss playing the Who songbook. The rest of the album tackles the themes of teenage lust, frustration, and rock & roll fantasies in similar fashion. It's somehow beside the point to complain about the puerile lyrics, the leaden rhythms, the derivative melodies, the histrionic vocals, or the overblown arrangements. Steinman knows how to push his audience's buttons, and with Meat Loaf's help, he hits those buttons with a sledgehammer. --Geoffrey Himes Product description 1.I'd Do Anything For Love (But I Won't Do That) 2.Life Is A Lemon And I Want My Money Back 3.Rock And Roll Dreams Come Through 4.It Just Won't Quit 5.Out Of The Frying Pan (And Into The Fire) 6.Objects In The Rear View Mirror May Appear Closer Than They Are 7.Wasted Youth 8.Everything Louder Than Everything Else 9.Good Girls Go To Heaven (Bad Girls Go Everywhere) 10.Back Into Hell 11.Lost Boys And Golden Girls
