Leatherwolf were heavy metal. Forget all the sub-genres and labels. Leatherwolf cranked ou high quality, straight forward heavy metal. "Street Ready" is a tad more commercial than the band's two preceeding albums, but radio rock this is not. "Street Ready" features strong vocals, fantastic guitar work and catchy, memorable tuned. This is especially true of the song "Thunder". Having three excellent guitar players in the same band is an interesting concept as each of the guitarist seem to try to outdo the next. Gotta love some healthy competition to bring out the best in a musician. It's a shame that this quality has disappeared in modern hard music.
