Our Take
Our Take
The year was 1984, and Meat Loaf was at the peak of his powers. Hits Out Of Hell, a compilation of the Australian singer's greatest hits, perfectly captures the sweaty passion and bombastic theatrics that have made him a legend in the rock world.
From the opening tracks of "Bat Out of Hell" and "Read 'Em and Weep," it's clear that Meat Loaf is here to deliver the goods. His massive voice soars over the symphonic arrangements, creating a sense of drama that is impossible to resist.
But it's not just the big anthems that make this album so special. Tracks like "Two Out of Three Ain't Bad" and "Midnight at the Lost and Found" showcase Meat Loaf's more tender side, revealing a vulnerability that is surprisingly endearing.
Of course, no Meat Loaf album would be complete without a healthy dose of melodrama. "You Took the Words Right Out of My Mouth (Hot Summer Night)" and "I'd Do Anything for Love (But I Won't Do That)" are perfect examples of his ability to take a simple love song and turn it into an epic saga.
In the end, Hits Out Of Hell is a testament to Meat Loaf's enduring appeal. It's a rollercoaster ride of emotions, with enough twists and turns to keep even the most jaded listener on their toes. So buckle up, dear reader, and prepare yourself for a journey into the heart of one of rock's most enigmatic performers. Cheers!

About the artist
Meat Loaf
Ah, Meat Loaf. The oversized, theatrical rocker whose powerful vocals and bombastic live performances have made him a household name in the world of classic rock. Born Marvin Lee Aday in Dallas, Texas, Meat Loaf first found fame as a stage actor before breaking into the music industry in the 1970s. With his larger-than-life persona and penchant for epic, operatic ballads, Meat Loaf quickly became a cult figure in the rock scene. His 1977 album "Bat Out of Hell" remains a classic of the genre, with its iconic cover and anthemic title track. But Meat Loaf's career has been far from smooth sailing. His struggles with weight, health issues, and personal demons have often overshadowed his musical achievements. Yet despite these setbacks, Meat Loaf has continued to tour and record, proving that his passion for music is as strong as ever. Whether you love him or hate him, there's no denying that Meat Loaf is a true original in the world of rock music. With his flamboyant stage presence and powerhouse vocals, he remains a force to be reckoned with in the industry. Just don't ask him to perform on an empty stomach – after all, this is a man who takes his meat seriously.
