In 1995 however, the band really surprised the fans and critics by releasing the storming Scream. This was an altogether heavier and guitar-lead approach which gained numerous plaudits and saw the band release their first live album, Screamin' Live. «Scream» is the fifth album of the Danish hard rock/heavy metal band Pretty Maids.





Pretty Maids' Scream, released in 1995, was their best album in 8 years (since the astonishing masterpiece, Future World, from 1987). They're back in top shape with a heavy metal album with some really cool tunes.

The first 3 songs on the disc (Rise, Scream, Psycho-Time…) makes you headbang your way through the first 12 minutes in absolute heavy metal delight. Fourth track is called This Love, and despite being a love song, it's a cool hard rock song where things never really slow down. Walk Away is the first ballad of the disc and it's got one of them really catchy choruses that the maids are experts in writing. No Messiah is a heavy midpaced track. The lyrics are kinda cool and overall this song is one of the best off Scream.
In a World Of Your Own is the second ballad and here things really slow down. It starts with a small piano piece before the band sets in. It's actually an okay song but adds nothing really special to the maids' impressive catalogue of songs. The next 2 songs (Don't Turn Your Sex On Me, Adrenaline Junkie) are dead heavy and really screams HEADBANGING! The lyrics are clever and the riffs just scream their way into your skull! Very cool!!!
The last song of the disc is Anytime Anywhere which is also a ballad. It's a little similar to In a World… and it obviously suffers from that… but on it's own, it's an okay song… but a little sad they put 2 songs that alike on the same album… but that's actually one of the only bad things I can say about this album.

Musicwise, as aforementioned, the album is heavy metal most of the way. It's actually a little surprising that they almost don't use the keyboard at all because you're used to keyboards in PM's music, so it actually makes the album a little harder (which isn't a bad thing). On the other hand, it wasn't as succesful in Japan as some of PM's other releases… simply because the japanese people missed the keyboard sound. ~ Review by Brat1983 Encyclopaedia Metallum

A classic in PM's discography which you shouldn't be missing out on.
