Lewd, rude and wearing more make-up than Tammy Faye Baker, TS won the hearts of teenaged boys across the country with a brutal, simplistic brand of hard rock and classic cock rock posturing. Consisting of loud-mouthed vocalist Dee Snider, guitarists Eddie Ojeda and Jay French, drummer A.J. Pero and bassist Mark "The Animal" Mendoza, Sister's melodic metal was made up of simple riffs and catchy, oft-repeated choruses with lyrics designed to do little more than piss off your parents. Spawned in the bar scene of Long Island, NY, Twisted Sister's trashy rock & roll and nasty image originally caught the ear of British metal indie Secret Records, who released the band’s debut, Under the Blade, in 1982. Atlantic picked Sister up in 1983, releasing You Can't Stop Rock and Roll and 1984's Stay Hungry. The latter album proved to be Twisted Sister's golden goose, going multi-platinum and providing the world with the ultimate pop-metal teen rebellion anthem "We're Not Gonna Take It." Stay Hungry also proved to be the band's commercial zenith, as 1985's Come Out and Play and 1987's Love Is For Suckers went nowhere. Twisted Sister split up in 1987 and Snider went on to form Desperado, later becoming a disc jockey. Snider resurfaced in 1998 starring, writing and producing the disturbing slasher flick StrangeLand, and recently released a solo record, Don't Let the Bastards Grind You Down. Metal label Spitfire Records has re-released all of Twisted Sister's '80s records with bonus cuts as well as Club Daze: The Studio Sessions Vol. 1, a collection of early pre-fame recordings.     Twisted Sister T.V.
