Description
Waysted – Waysted – Vinyl Record
The self-titled album Waysted refers to the debut album by the British heavy metal band Waysted, released in 1984.
Waysted was a short-lived and rather obscure British heavy metal outfit from the mid-’80s. Led by former UFO bassist Pete Way (hence the spelling of the group’s name), the band’s original lineup consisted of another UFO alumni, guitarist/keyboardist Paul Raymond, in addition to guitarist Ronnie Kayfield, drummer Frank Noon, and a chap called Fin on vocals.
Waysted by Waysted is a significant release in the heavy metal and hard rock genres. The band, formed by UFO bassist Pete Way, showcases a hard-hitting and melodic sound characterized by heavy guitar riffs and strong vocal performances.
The group’s members would come and go often during their brief career (with Way being the only constant member), as Waysted issued a total of four albums. 1983’s Vices, 1984’s self-titled release, 1985’s The Good, the Bad, the Waysted, and 1986’s Save Your Prayer, in addition to opening tours for such notable ’80s metal arena headliners as Dio and Iron Maiden. The group broke up shortly after their final album, as Way eventually resurfaced with a reunited UFO in the mid-’90s.
The album typically features tracks that embody the classic heavy metal sound of the 1980s. It includes songs like ‘Won’t Get Out Alive’ and ‘Hurt So Good,’ which reflect the band’s ability to craft catchy and energetic rock tunes.
Waysted is celebrated for its contribution to the British heavy metal scene and its embodiment of the hard rock spirit of the era. The album captures the essence of 1980s rock and showcases the band’s ability to create memorable and anthemic songs.
This self-titled debut album serves as an introduction to Waysted’s brand of hard-hitting rock music and their role in the hard rock and heavy metal landscape of the 1980s.
