I remember when...............2007-03-09

Found an old notebook with Headbanger Ball playlists written in it. Jumped online and found D.A.D. again after all these years. I owned this cassette and loved it (actually still have the cassette in a crate, I just don't have anything that plays cassettes anymore). Distinctive vocals and sound you'll love it too.

Awesome album.......2007-02-10

If D:A:D had come out of Seattle, Atlanta or any other US city, this album would have gone platinum several times over. I count at least 6 songs that could have gone into the top 10. The band was big in Denmark throughout the 80s and 90s (during which time I went to high school and college in Denmark) and also made a name for themselves in Australia as far as I'm aware. For some unknown reason they never had a hit in the US though. Still makes me wonder. If you're into hard rock, then you ought to reward yourself and try this album. 18 years later (sigh) and it still rocks!

80's music.......2007-01-12

I only knew the song, "Sleeping My Day Away" before purchasing the cd. The rest of the cd is almost as good as this track.

One of the classic hard rock albums of all time.......2006-05-13

This album thrust DAD into the hard rock stratosphere. What happened after is a story for another review. However on the strenth of this disc they were on the crest of a wave.

Danish nutters to the core, this band stood outside the North American hard rock scene and it showed. While so many bands circa 1989 were overblown and in for a good time but didn't quite realise how silly they looked, DAD came across as knowing just how ridiculous the whole business was. I mean, this is a band that used to have stuntmen perform mock fights on stage in their early days and pay weird country tinged rock with various 'country' props on stage.

But to the heart of this album. The main theme here is driving simplicity. In fact their bass player famously used just two strings for much of the music. The riffs here are great and driving and the singles went straight into the charts in a number of countries. Tunes like Sleeping My Day Away capture youthful zest for partying all night brilliantly. ZCMI and Lords of the Atlas are whimsical with enough bite to keep your toe tapping.

Other gems would be Girl Nation, sort of the flagship of DAD's attempt at world domination. Ridiculous lyrics, crazy video and the whole thing just gels somehow. The heaviest track on the album, Ill Will is a right stomper, a couple of minutes of blazing and driving madness, the closest this album comes to outright metal.

The vocals of one Jesper Binzer sound suitably beer stained and he certainly attacks these songs with conviction. Production is good, as the record company had thrown a chunk of cash at this band in order to sign them and so didn't stint in this department.

This is an album that you can play from one end to the other, perfect for parties with your mates or chugging down the highway. It always brings a smile to my face whenever someone throws it on.

Good Rock!!.......2004-10-31

Album Description

After their first two Country-Punk-albums Call Of The Wild and D.A.D Draws A Circle the Danes, formerly Disneyland After Dark, handed out a killer titled No Fuel Left For The Pilgrims, which is just plain fun, no arguments about that. Already the opener 'Sleeping My Day Away' is to this very day a classic in Rock-pubs and has made D.A.D. immortal. Just like on the follow-up 'Riskin' It All' the two Binzer-brothers create rather simple, but so very effective songs, which are directly going into your blood and legs, without any detour, you don't have to think too much and I can quote myself from that review: "where other bands try to find a way around to search for the door, D.A.D just don't hesitate and break right through the wall!" And this snotty attitude makes the Danish quartet so sympathetic, they do not take themselves seriously (just think of the hilarious stage-settings) and the lyrics (put down in a rather unconventional writing, which here and there makes it a little hard to decipher) again are hilarious, the whole thing is just good-moon-Rock'n'Roll. 2005.

You won't be sorry...........2002-12-08

I'm so excited! My husband just asked me what I wanted for Christmas, and out of the blue I said, "I want a copy of that D.A.D. cassette that we used to have." And a few minutes later, waaaaaaalaaaaaa...he found it on Amazon[.com]! Back in the early 90's, we rocked on with D.A.D. until our tape was worn out. Unfortunately, the record stores no longer carried this album here in the states, so we weren't able to get a replacement, until now!... D.A.D is not a big name band here in the USA, but they should be. This is definitely a must buy. You won't be sorry with your purchase. Every song is good -- no need to skip over any of the songs. I can't wait to get it...I wonder if I still know the words after all these years!....

Great songs, and an original sound.......2002-09-25

Few 80s glam bands succeeded with capturing a unique and original sound. The few that did, such as Cinderella, attained commericial and critical success. Dinsneyland After Dark (DAD) was an unfortunate exception to this rule. Although the band possessed great soungs on this album, with lush guitar textures of a clean guitar layered in with distorted guitars, they must've been too European to achieve a great level of success. Although this album went gold, it was DAD's most commercial, and best album.

These guys rock!.......2001-05-12

These guys are sensational. They perform a hard edged blend of hard rock that is as relevant today as when the album was recorded. I was happy to find this album on Amazon, I last heard it in '94 when I left uni and forgot about it until seeeing it here on Amazon recently.

The best songs on the album undoubtedly are Girl Nation and Sleeping My Day Away. Both have catchy guitar riffs that you can play over and over without getting sick of. Sleeping My Day Away should be the anthem of the youth. If the record company promoted it, this album could anumber one seller today in the US!

The best thing about this album is you don't feel like skipping one song. They are all well crafted, Ill Will, Rim of Hell, Overmuch and Jihad all go hard.

If you like hard rock you are not complete until you own this album.
