What’s your favorite colour, baby?

Though I don’t believe Vivid is criminally overlooked (2 mil sold, 5 singles), it does remain criminally underrated. An important release for many genres.

I’m quibbling about saying Vivid is overlooked. It was MASSIVE in 88/89. Many hit singles, not just CofP. They opened for the Rolling Stones Steel Wheels extravaganza.

So this is the one where I am going to ask people to please give Legal Weapon a chance as discussing the band will give DMO a chance to talk about 2 things that don't get much chatter when it comes to 80s metal...

Punk bands that entered the Hard Rock/Metal scene and where is the line where Rock becomes Metal...

If I was picking an album for DMO 80s Metal this would be my pick..

I am going to agree with everyone saying that Vivid hasn't been forgotten and really isn't in need to digging out..
