While recording this song in the studio, he actually blew his vocals out. And he refused to record the rest until he could get it perfect the way he wanted it. From what he says, he let his voice rest for a time. Then went back into the studio and finished it. The whole slave to the grind album is probably his best vocal performance during his time in skid row. The whole album is fucking mind blowing. It’s in my top 3 albums of all time.

Yes. The only "glam-hair-metal" trace is the looks of Sebastian, but his singing and band playing and the songwriting and overall expresion of Skid Row - is out of glam. They made a lot of meaningful music and songs and texts - and i love their Slave to the grind album. I think Skid Row was a standout and people on their own.

This song was written about Sebastian's friend Steven Adler the original drummer of Gun's n Roses. He got addicted to heroin and his playing got so bad he was fired from Gun's n Roses. In 1996 Steven suffered a stroke after taking a speedball which is a mixture of heroin and cocaine. He was in a coma but survived. He had paralysis on one side of his face and a lisp. He's he's battled with his Addictions ever since but he seems to be doing okay these days. he still plays drums he's been in a couple of big bands and in 2016 he actually got to play a couple of shows with Guns and Roses again.

So great to see younger generations appreciating the great music of my era! Sebastian Bach, IMO, is the best vocalist in music! Him, Ronny James Dio and Freddy Mercury! I know a lot of people say this song was about Steven Adler, but I respectfully disagree. Baz wrote the lyrics (which is why Rachel Bolan calls it "the worst piece of crap we've ever done"). I know Baz has two brothers that had trouble with addiction. "You and I together in our lives, *sacred ties* will never fray". That leads me to believe he was referring to one or both of them (one had a pill addiction, so I lean toward the other). Again, JMO! And I love "In a Darkened Room", because of or in spite of the subject matter (I go back and forth), but the rest of Slave to the Grind is just as awesome! Try Monkey Business and the title song itself sometime-- I don't think you'll regret it!😊 Side note: Baz's late father did the artwork for the cover of SttG (and inside art for their 3rd-- and last album with Baz-- Subhuman Race, which is thought by *many*, myself included, to be their best album of the 3). Thanx for your insight! My best to you and yours!😊
