I stumbled across this band after seeing Micheal Angelo Batio on a list of underappreciated guitarists and looked this album up to get to hear the man play. Once you listen to this album, you can truly understand why he is underappreciated, because it's hard to hang on in there to get to appreciate his skills when he has these songs as a platform. Nitro are a hybrid band that try to meld glam metal and thrash metal, two sounds that you would not think could be mixed together; once you have given O.F.R. a listen, you will realize that it is with good reason.

On paper this album should be the best thing ever, since it's so over the top in every possible way. Too bad O.F.R. and Nitro are just plain ridiculous. Take the singer for example, the dude has so high pitched voice he could literally break glass with his screams, they pretty much have more hair than every other glam band combined, and then there's the out of place shredding which is awesome and entertaining in its own right. But my point is, everything here should be awesome and entertaining. If I want to hear the dude shredding, I'll just listen to his solo shred albums. Edit. In fact, I remember seeing some episode of Mythbusters where Jim Gillette's student managed to break glass with those über high pitched screams.
