Music Review - Sixx:AM
The immediacy of the modern age - could be the sub-title for this post. Early on Saturday morning PlanetRock was playing in the kitchen whilst I was on the computer in the adjacent room. I heard a track and thought - that was good who was that. The playlist on the station web site told me it was Sixx:AM. I went to Spotify and found their first album on there so listened to that. I thought it was really good. In no time I'd found it for only £4.49 on HMVdigital and it was bought, downloaded and onto my MP3 player. I also bought their latest one at the same time. I had a long drive Sunday to an AA regional assembly so had time to listen to them both a couple of times. So... The Heroin Diaries Soundtrack is the first album. It is based on a 13 month diary written by Nikki Sixx during Dec 1986 - 1987 when he was fighting his heroin addiction. Lyrically a lot of the material I can directly relate to as a recovering alcoholic....
