I won't argue when people said that Priscilla was heavily influenced by Pretty Boy Floyd and Poison, sure that the influence is very close to their music, but quality is another story, and I'm talking about a sad story here. Priscilla, like many bands that popped out today from nowhere, is another American glam guerilla gang that went underground back when hair metal rules the day, but that's because their music is so typical and formulaic, not a single major label was attracted to them.

To be honest, I don't have any problem for a band being a copycat, but at least they have to do it good. Most of the songs here are horrendously terrible, bad composition, bad vocal, bad production, and forgettable solos. Tracks like "Wake Up The Neighborhood" and "Lick N' A Kiss", that they claimed to be their hit, are merely a rip-off with a repetitive and monotonous chorus. "Love In Action", "Can't Wait For The Night", and "Rocked Outta Love" are too cheesy to be true. "Always Thinking of You" is a shallow ballad attempt I can't stand to listen for another minute. Probably "Gimme Lovin' (Tonight)" and "Just Can't Stop" are two potential tracks but still too many weaknesses obviously shown with several out-of-key solos and superficial lyrics. And you can forget the rest of five demo tracks, I'm afraid you might hurt your ears. Probably another tasteless effort by Suncity Records to cash out some bucks, this one is avoidable for sure.
