Album Notes & Community Reviews

Recorded during a period of vocal recovery and legal struggles, 'Bad Attitude' attempts to recapture the singer's operatic, bombastic rock glory[cite: 1]. Although missing his primary collaborator Jim Steinman on most tracks, the album employs heavy synthesizers and soaring hard rock choruses aimed at contemporary radio. The release found moderate success in Europe despite a lukewarm reception in his home country.
