I can say my favorite band is Crashdiet.
In the past couple of months I've been searching for band that sound like them.
I know there are some great bands rockin' this new era of sleaze and glam, but I just can't find any band that sounds as sharp and heavy, with such vocals as Crashdiet...
Even in the early years when they had Dave Lepard (RIP) in the vocals, it is hard to find someone who sings like him, because he had a very distinct singing style
And, in my opinion, this search is even more difficult now that Crashdiet has Simon Cruz in the vocals, because that guy can sing! Listen to the songs he sings for Jailbait and you'll see that his vocals make the difference...
I also really like Reckless Love, that has Olli Herman (aka Olliver Twisted), who was the vocalist for Crashdet in the album "The Unnattractive Revolution" before Simon.
Anyway... I'm looking for bands like Crashdiet... any suggestions, guys?
