Chicago Label Numero Group Details ’80s Glam Metal Release ‘Bound For Hell: On The Sunset Strip’
The GRAMMY-nominated, Chicago-based label Numero Group is set to issue a very healthy tribute to the Los Angeles glam metal scene with their upcoming release, ‘Bound For Hell: On The Sunset Strip.’
The GRAMMY-nominated, Chicago-based label Numero Group is set to issue a very healthy tribute to the Los Angeles glam metal scene with their upcoming release, Bound For Hell: On The Sunset Strip. The label is, according to a recent press release, “known for crafting expertly-researched collections featuring rarities, out-of-print and often forgotten musical sub-genres and artists.”
The new release features 21 tracks over two LPs and a 144-page full-colour book from music critic and co-author of Louder Than Hell: The Definitive Oral History of Metal, Katherine Turman.
Adam Luksetich, the producer, and researcher behind the collection, shares: “The infamous Sunset Strip glam metal scene of the ’80s is one that’s been covered excessively, and for a good reason. But usually, the analysis goes too far past bands like Mötley Crüe, Poison, Quiet Riot, etc. Our goal with Bound For Hell was to narrow in on the equally impressive independent or unsigned bands that thrived in that same scene but in most cases, never benefited from the major label feeding frenzy. With a bounty of unseen photos, pages and pages of flyers, and detailed liner notes, these bands get more time in the spotlight.”
Pre-orders are now available from the label here.
