{"product_id":"motley-crue-shout-at-the-devil","title":"Motley Crue - Shout At The Devil","description":"\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe album that captured the very zeitgeist of a looming commercial hard rock revolution, and the record that turned four hungry kids from the Hollywood gutter into one of the biggest bands of the decade. Released on September 26, 1983 on Elektra Records and recorded at Cherokee Studios in Hollywood with producer Tom Werman, \u003cem\u003eShout At The Devil\u003c\/em\u003e sold 200,000 copies in its first two weeks, debuted at number 17 on the Billboard 200, and eventually achieved quadruple platinum certification in the United States. Nothing in the Los Angeles hard rock scene would ever be the same.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe album opens with \"In the Beginning,\" a cinematic spoken-word introduction that functions like a curtain rising on something larger than a standard rock record. What follows is ten tracks of relentless energy and theatrical menace, trading the raw punk-glam of the band's debut for a heavier, more polished, and more deliberately provocative sound. Mick Mars' opening riff on \"Looks That Kill\" is one of the defining hard rock sounds of the entire decade, and its MTV video expanded the band's audience from the Sunset Strip to the rest of the country in a matter of weeks. The title track, written by Nikki Sixx as a declaration of rebellion against every institution and authority that had ever tried to define him, generated genuine outrage from parent groups and radio stations, which had the entirely predictable effect of making teenagers want it more than anything else in the record store. A thunderous cover of The Beatles' \"Helter Skelter\" completes the provocation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\"Too Young To Fall In Love\" rounded out the singles campaign, cementing an album that remains, forty years on, one of the most viscerally exciting and historically significant records the Los Angeles hard rock scene ever produced. Presented here in a 40th anniversary remaster in a gatefold sleeve.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AMS","offers":[{"title":"Vinyl","offer_id":47345788649634,"sku":null,"price":30.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0633\/5024\/3490\/files\/4104270-2842988.jpg?v=1781672937","url":"https:\/\/staticatx.com\/products\/motley-crue-shout-at-the-devil","provider":"Static ATX","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
