Deadline's
Monster Mullet Rock looks great on paper (
Autograph,
Quiet Riot,
Dio), but any hopes for a pure mullet experience are shattered upon listening to this sneaky two-disc set. While songs like "Turn Up the Radio," "Holy Diver," and "Once Bitten, Twice Shy" are indeed "party in the back, business in the front" anthems, the fact they are all either live or re-recorded makes this collection for poseurs only. Also, anybody who considers
Starship's "Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now" a "mullet rock" classic needs his head shaved.
