Santa Cruz are in the forefront of Scandinavian "eighties influenced metal" in my opinion. But there's also superb "newcomers" like BULLETRAIN with their excellent album "What You Fear The Most".
I have a confession. God, I miss the old Santa Cruz with Johny's doodily- doo.. You all know what I mean... Nothing against Archie, but the old Santa Cruz was one of the best bands this world was honored to see.
+MrRuger1977 Nah, they weren't. World War III panic, bad taste in clothing, NDW-music.. And a load of copies of copies of bad hair metal bands. Yes, there were some awesome hair metal bands, but the music companies were riding that concept to death. Kind of like casting show pop music nowadays. But it's nice to actually see a good hair metal band pop up again.
+Rec musicianship?? Nirvana?? Soundgarden?? Terrible fucking musicians barely able to play their fucking instrument. As far as rock is concerned the 90's was a time better off forgotten except for the odd shining light in the sea of ripped denim and lumberjackets.
FINALLY!! It's about time 80's Hair makes a comeback. Best new song I've heard in YEARS. Chorus vocals finally have the right reverb/80's group scream to it. Hope these guys make it to the states. No way I'd miss them. These guys freaking ROCK!!!
a band from Finland (Finland has a most of rock/heavy bands in the world /per citizen). SANTA CRUZ was a one band of hundreds awesome bands (Universally 99.9% never heard from outside of Finland).
Awesome song! Takes me back to my 20's in the 80's. That was a killer time and the music will never compare to what it was then. Great to see you guys know it too and are keeping that music alive. You're extremely talented musicians. The guitar solos are off the chart!! I get chills every time I listen to it! Killer vocals too! Think I may have to purchase a copy of this album.
Lol what do you mean "music will never compare" Always some old granny making these silly claims - granny who has zero idea what music people are listening to Granny's love fat old dudes dressed in lipstick and torn jeans - 50, 60 year old women are always at the forefront of culture and music lmao
Let's bring it back!!!! So tired of all the hip hop pop dance music covering the airwaves. Santa Cruz shows a bit of all: Ratt, Skid Row, Guns n' Roses, Warrant, Slaughter, Bullet For My Valentine, Black Tide, Poison, Bon Jovi, Motley Crue, White Lion.........Time for a change!!!
Second time in a row - head banging hair flying gutt wrenching very anthemic easy to catch on with everyone who listens!! Gotta say go guys go,,!!!!! I am an old (65) rocker from way back in the day n had my own metal band in 1980:s, n this kicks it deluxe!!! Great singer!!; Double guitars awesome too;;!!!!!Attaboy, Santa Cruz!!;;
If it sounds like these guys are stuck in 1987, then all I can say is "GOOD"!!! The world needs more upbeat, hard-charging, straight-ahead, in-you-face rock and metal.
+Simzoid because the record companies make more money with Rap, Pop and Country in the states, same with radio stations. I went to XM/Sirus radio and never turned on local programming again.
Music, scene, performance... I declare myself fans of this band of pure ROCK!!... TAKE THAT NORTH AMERICA... this finish band convervates the old spirit! yeahhh...
Hey,cool Glam/Sleaze-Metal & the guitar solos are bad-ass! \m/ P.S. To the people who complain about the singer:this isn't some Emocore or Death Metal,with stupid ''cookiemonster''-vocals,listen to Whitesnake,Skid Row,G'n'R,early Motley Crue,King Diamond,Dokken or Judas Priest,this is how you suppose to sound when you do this style.
This is probably the best "modern" glam rock song ever made. It has everything, the sleaze, the hair, the attitude and most importantly it's tied to a really fucking good song. I'm a dude and I've had long hair for going on 15 years now and I would literally kill a man to have mine look that good.
@@alexanderotey4283 the singer did something really bad (non of the other members said what exactly he did) and since he hold all the rights of the band they couldn't kicked him out so they all left the band during their first US Tour and kicked him out of the bus in the middle of nowhere. Now santa cruz is just creating pop with guitar flavor. The bassist was now part of Bodom After Midnight and the other guitarist is producing now songs for other bands like Amaranthe or Lost Society
Santa Cruz, Skull Fist, Enforcer, Voltax, nos estan llevando de nuevo a los 80's a las nuevas generaciones. Señoras y señores, el Rock está más vivo que nunca. 🤘🏽
These guys are sick! They might just be my new favorite band of all time surpassing my love for Guns N' Roses. I even got my 11yr old brother into them so much that he now fangirls over them. I can't wait till they come to the states again, i missed them last time they were here because of Senior Finals.
Great to see a younger generation embrace a great sound from decades ago. The 80's glam sound was so saturated though it was refreshing when a little band called Nirvana took a sledge hammer to the cases of hairspray that was set to be shipped out to all those riding the gravy train. The wave was finally over and few were able to make the transition. I loved it, then I hated it, and now it's awesome to see another generation revive it for those who never knew how very fucking cool it was to grow up in the eighties!
I really hope this band is a sign that better times are ahead, times reminiscent of the 80's and early 90's when bands sang about having a good time, they could play their instruments, and they looked like they belonged on stage. I think I hear some L.A. Guns influence.
WoW ! Ça envoie en Finlande 🇫🇮 Merci aux membres de HARSH 🇫🇷 de m’avoir fait découvrir l’une de leurs sources d’inspiration : Santa Cruz. Jetez une oreille sur les jeunes Parisiens de ce combo et leur album Out Of Control ! 🤘🥁🎸 Listen to HARSH : GOOD LOVIN’ !
It's the production that gives this track and album that absolute, pure, gritty but clean 80's sound. This would NOT have sounded out of place in '88 or '89. A proper, and true throw back album!!!
Google the whole story yourself for more info, but in a nutshell all other members quit the band presumably because of Archie's behaviour. Santa Cruz still exists, but isn't the same band anymore. The energy is gone.
Finally music is making a come back that actually has musicians in it and that can play and aren't talking about being depressed! Where's the bands official YT channel? Is this it? Record company? Regards from the US.
Hair rock! They look like and sound like they stepped out of the 80s! Killer tune with dualing guitars. Hey kidos look at this! This how you rock! Not from behind a computer!!!
Why's everyone complaining about the singer? I think he has a cool voice. Imperfections truly make a singer. Just listen to Axl Rose or Lemmy Kilmister.
These guys aren't the glam metal like Bon Jovi, Britny Fox, Faster Pussycat or RATT. These guys are like late Mötley Crüe, Skid Row, FireHouse, and XYZ. More talented than the carbon copies they hail from.
Criss Wikked Mötley Crüe and Skid Row are no carbon copies. They're individual, top notch glam bands. Mötley Crüe actually is among the pioneers of the style, they started out in 1981. And it was bands like Mötley, that popularized glam metal. So in no way are Mötley a carbon copy.
Criss Wikked Well, you should have written it more clearly then. Your comment suggests that you consider Motley and Skid Row to be copies, which they totally were not.
este tema es el unico que me salva de esta cuarentena , yo soy guitarrista y juro que apenas vuelvan los shows , con mi banda vamos a comenzar con este tema i love santa cruz

For those who may not know, this is a Finish metal band. Finland... The land of still awesome rock!
thanks man. i live in finland and i have seen those guys live an they are fucking awesome.
i saw them in Hämeenlinna with AC/DC
They Kick ass, great guitarists. They sorta remind me of a 80's metal band from San Antonio TX called
"Dangerous Toys"
Santa Cruz are in the forefront of Scandinavian "eighties influenced metal" in my opinion. But there's also superb "newcomers" like BULLETRAIN with their excellent album "What You Fear The Most".
*****
They have talent, somebody better pour some water on that guitar fretboard, it's on fire !
At least this was Santa Cruz... I really miss this Band..
Miss them too
@@eeldesoda What happened to them?
@@Akshaykumar-bs9ml Issues with the singer.. He still is on the band.
@@JColt Man i want them back cause i am a huge hair metal fan.
@@Akshaykumar-bs9ml I know man, I hope the three parts that left make something together.
GLAM FOREVER
this aint glam
this is new old school
its Glam-hard-melodic-metal...................
+Don Payson so this is new or old??
new hair metal reborn from 80's style.. Much like the semi-90's disco comeback for all of 32.3 hours in August :)
Jose Pacheco Glam Core
As I heard once:"If you trow rock anywhere in Finland, you wil hit a rock star"
Don’t trow!!!
Good one, but dont throw it, it will land in a lake. 😆
I have a confession. God, I miss the old Santa Cruz with Johny's doodily- doo.. You all know what I mean... Nothing against Archie, but the old Santa Cruz was one of the best bands this world was honored to see.
Even the drums sounded better, the whole mix was way more adorable.
Archie haved with problems for alcohol
After pandemic covid-19, maybe them can back if Archie heals
Santa Cruz are the new Guns N Roses
Did I just wake up in the 80's again??
+2xkiller You can only hope, The 80's were amazing.
+MrRuger1977
Nah, they weren't. World War III panic, bad taste in clothing, NDW-music..
And a load of copies of copies of bad hair metal bands. Yes, there were some awesome hair metal bands, but the music companies were riding that concept to death. Kind of like casting show pop music nowadays.
But it's nice to actually see a good hair metal band pop up again.
+MyRegardsToTheDodo Nah, They were great, The 90's sucked ass
+Rec musicianship?? Nirvana?? Soundgarden?? Terrible fucking musicians barely able to play their fucking instrument. As far as rock is concerned the 90's was a time better off forgotten except for the odd shining light in the sea of ripped denim and lumberjackets.
+R. and the 90's was full of self indulgent whiny brats who hated their parents. nirvana makes me want to vomit.
Finland. The only country that, in the age of trap/crap core/etc, still knows how music needs to sound like. Good job.
FINALLY!! It's about time 80's Hair makes a comeback. Best new song I've heard in YEARS. Chorus vocals finally have the right reverb/80's group scream to it. Hope these guys make it to the states. No way I'd miss them. These guys freaking ROCK!!!
The rock sound, the rock look and the rock voice. The three basic characteristics.
a band from Finland (Finland has a most of rock/heavy bands in the world /per citizen). SANTA CRUZ was a one band of hundreds awesome bands (Universally 99.9% never heard from outside of Finland).
@@hiikeri6590cringe
Gibsons ! Metal Hair and low strap ! Rock'n'roll riff and guitar moves ! HUGE wall of HUGE Marshall amps ! We've got it all !! OWH YEAH
Awesome song! Takes me back to my 20's in the 80's. That was a killer time and the music will never compare to what it was then. Great to see you guys know it too and are keeping that music alive.

Don't forget Dokken!
@@abidulgmhs9694 love some Dokken
Cinderella to'
i would have thought this was an 80's band. sound, hair, vibe. it all screams 80's hair metal. loving it.
Return of The Glam Metal!!
Second time in a row - head banging hair flying gutt wrenching very anthemic easy to catch on with everyone who listens!! Gotta say go guys go,,!!!!!

I agree 100% man!!!
@@LB00146 very rare on this times to have a band like this
couldnt agree more
well they are no longer stuck if you check the new stuff :))
Damn straight
This Band was so awesome, it's so horrible, what happend to them. I have the first two albums on Vinyl. :-)
This is a KICK ASS band!!!
Lead guitarist shredding that guitar in my opinion.
Why arent bands like THIS on the radio and popular
+Simzoid because the record companies make more money with Rap, Pop and Country in the states, same with radio stations. I went to XM/Sirus radio and never turned on local programming again.
Here in their home country, Finland, they are constantly on the radio. Well that's not quite a fair comparison because metal is mainstream here ;)
You Europeans say that BUT theres so many Dance raves & Pop music there too.I do believe there's More Metal in Finland than in UK or Germany
Finland has most bands in the world
I wanna move to Finland :( It sucks ass in Australia.
""MAKE MUSIC GREAT AGAIN""
Amen \m/
Hell yeah reminds me of the 80's too but I like these guys!!
Music, scene, performance... I declare myself fans of this band of pure ROCK!!... TAKE THAT NORTH AMERICA... this finish band convervates the old spirit! yeahhh...
Wouuwww... Monster riffs... I'm 44 and really enjoying this... Great...
I can hear Hanoi Rocks spirit in this song ;)
Sooooooo good! This lineup was amazing! Johnny is a guitar god, very sexy too! Tazzy is great on drums! Miss them!
as a 19 year old really into 80s glam metal, it makes me happy to see these bands, glam metal is back :) lets hope it keeps coming
Rolling again like 80s
This is awesome talent!! \m/ Real fucking music, not like the SHIT played today!! \m/

Finally, some good music.
There are still some musicians who make awesome 80's music!
Thank you guys :')
Seeing them for the first time with the awesome reckless love in Bristol in four days time can't wait!
Its all coming round again, Hide and watch...... THANK GOD !!!!!!!
Theses dudes would have killed it in the 80's. Who says Hair Metal is dead.
This is probably the best "modern" glam rock song ever made. It has everything, the sleaze, the hair, the attitude and most importantly it's tied to a really fucking good song. I'm a dude and I've had long hair for going on 15 years now and I would literally kill a man to have mine look that good.
God damn there's a good young rock band with a lot potential and they fuck it up. Just why?
How did they fuck it up

Archie what have you done. I so miss this Santa Cruz band & hope that one day you guys can get back together & settle your differences
These Fellas Rock! The Guitarists 🎸🎸 Are AMAZING PLAYER'S!!!
welcome back GLAM.METAL
Finally another band with that fantastic 80's sound!
Get these guys on the Monsters of Rock Cruise in February from Tampa!!! Great fucking band!
VERY 80's style !!! Good to see this era coming back !
saw them with Sebastian Bach this year, good band.
i keep listening, why... because these boys can play and sound incredible together!!!!
TOTALLY ROCKS !!!!

This is the Skid Row of the new generation...
not even close
I think you're right!
Maybe Warrant, Winger, Danger Danger but not Skid Row....not gritty enough
@@MadCub1000 I agree
Bang on..
It's the production that gives this track and album that absolute, pure, gritty but clean 80's sound. This would NOT have sounded out of place in '88 or '89. A proper, and true throw back album!!!

now that's what I call music,great to hear that 80's sound once again
3:18 Axl Rose would be proud... :P
Love that hair metal vibe. This is gold.
Axl en you could be mine
... And for moments, the smile of Ozzy Osbourne (Archie)... And all that mixture gives birth to Santa Cruz. Amen... Very good!
Back to the eighties :)
This track sounds great! It sounds like it could have been released in the late 80’s, or even ‘90 or’91 just before the Seattle wave hit. Good stuff.
These guys got the time machine and moved here right from 80s.
Finland had always been killing it!
getton some nighttrain vibes from it it sounds cool
Ely Rogers I think they stole a riff from Nightrain
iedere hardrocker geeft een mooie stem en goede en mooie teksten1000/10 ik sta open voor reacties
Ja, maar ik denk, dat je meer reacties zult krijgen, als je je bericht in het Engels neerzet! 😁
Saudades dessa formação...
На самом деле, Чувак и пркрасные музыканты кайфанули и сделали нам приятно! Мы -прёмся!))
He's got some Mark Slaughter high pitched singing going on.
I loved the tone of the guitars ....distortion on the perfect tone and gain.
fuck yes glam metal!
Angeliqe Dark
Gotta love glam Rock/Metal, Kinda remind me of Def lepoard (Not really a glam band) for some reason :)
Finally music is making a come back that actually has musicians in it and that can play and aren't talking about being depressed! Where's the bands official YT channel? Is this it? Record company?
Regards from the US.
they would have been so big 25 years ago
Joshua Guitar They should be big now cause this is awesome
Joshua Guitar Nah his voice isn't THAT good, It doesn't compare to the singers of that era, they blow him out of the water.
Josh Sexton talent is the last thing you needed in the eighties to get a record deal...
Josh Sexton True, but at least they have GREAT guitarists!
jimmiemclovin Yeah, but almost any guitar player was fucking awesome
Hair rock! They look like and sound like they stepped out of the 80s! Killer tune with dualing guitars. Hey kidos look at this! This how you rock! Not from behind a computer!!!
GLAM METAL WILL NEVER DIE
Love this band. One of my favorite songs. Killer rock n roll. Hope you tour the states soon and come to New England. Need more bands like this
found these guys by accident. AMAZING
best accident ever ;)
Julien Verveer after me xD
Jaska Örnberg hehehhe
are you ace frehley's son?
Did you think this was an accept cover like I did before you clicked it?
Guitarists are AMAZING!
Why's everyone complaining about the singer? I think he has a cool voice. Imperfections truly make a singer. Just listen to Axl Rose or Lemmy Kilmister.
Totaly agree, he sounds awesome like a combination of Axl rose and Vince Neil, and looks like a young Blackie Lawless
CurtisAlfeld are u fuckin serious comparing this to axl ? I dont like guns n roses but not doubt axl is on another level ,
Singer awesome vocals love archie blonde toxic brat rocker
Lemmy just vomited in his grave
As a child of the early 80s with the LA metal scene.. this brought a smile to my face.
These guys aren't the glam metal like Bon Jovi, Britny Fox, Faster Pussycat or RATT. These guys are like late Mötley Crüe, Skid Row, FireHouse, and XYZ. More talented than the carbon copies they hail from.
Criss Wikked i think that this 2nd wave wont create the monsters the 80s did... but somehow it will be a lot more better
Criss Wikked
Mötley Crüe and Skid Row are no carbon copies. They're individual, top notch glam bands.
Mötley Crüe actually is among the pioneers of the style, they started out in 1981.
And it was bands like Mötley, that popularized glam metal. So in no way are Mötley a carbon copy.
Ron Rocker dude you totally misread what I was saying.
Ron Rocker I'm a huge Crüe fan.
Criss Wikked
Well, you should have written it more clearly then. Your comment suggests that you consider Motley and Skid Row to be copies, which they totally were not.
And they self implode ... 80s are here againand kicking ass! Until Santa Cruz is back, take a look at Hardcore Superstar
este tema es el unico que me salva de esta cuarentena , yo soy guitarrista y juro que apenas vuelvan los shows , con mi banda vamos a comenzar con este tema i love santa cruz
The 80's will be over when I say they're over! I will ALWAYS love this music!
8/10, needs more cow bell.
If you want the perfect amount of cowbell, you should go listen to "Let Me Cum In" by Steel Panther. Such a delightful song!
You got a feva?
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yeah, bring it back! Rock on!!!!!!!!
Yes love it !
Love it !
Perfection...and wish they were still together.
:O as a 14 yr old girl I can happily say that these guys are awesome as, and same with there music :D

Went to see Fozzy in Las Vegas, these guys were the second opening act..... Amazing performance!
Hope they tour the states More!
