History
Slaughter played loud, upbeat hair metal with a sharp edge, led by the unusually high, piercing voice of singer Mark Slaughter. He and bassist Dana Strum had both come through the Vinnie Vincent Invasion, and after that group fell apart they started their own band in Las Vegas at the very end of the 1980s. The debut Stick It to Ya landed in 1990 and did well, carried by the party rocker "Up All Night" and the ballad "Fly to the Angels", a mix of shout-along energy and big emotional slow songs that summed up the genre's last commercial wave. The Wild Life followed in 1992, still full of hooks but arriving as rock radio shifted toward Seattle, and the band spent the rest of the decade playing to a smaller, loyal crowd. What sets Slaughter apart in the crowded field is the vocal register: Mark Slaughter sings near the top of his range most of the time, over crunchy mid-tempo riffs, shiny production and gang vocals that turn almost every chorus into a chant.
