You guys rule! I read somewhere online an old review where the record was supposed to be like Judas Priest style metal meats Motorhead.

The reviewer must have been deaf or a compulsive liar.
It's a decent enough little NWoBHM album, but Priest meets Motorhead it most definitely is not.

Read the bit on them. Having not heard them I can't comment. That review if I'm correct was from way back in the day. I think this site just collects old reviews from clippings.

It appears that the Clientelle piece was written by Derek Oliver for an old issue of Kerrang! magazine.
Oliver was the man usually dispatched to interview bands like Foreigner, Loverboy, Journey, Styx, Reo Speedwagon and the like, because he had more of a penchant for the AOR side of things.
No wonder he didn't know his arse from his elbow when it came to describing real music.
It's an interesting little website though, thanks for providing the link ADD.
If you enjoy the Clientelle album, i posted their later 1985 demo here too:

This is good stuff - kind of reminds me of Ethel The Frog, thanks for uploading

I downloaded their demo from '85 and it was solid so I'm downloading this one too. Hope it is as solid as the demo cassette. Thanks for uploading!
