Bulletboys

Led by former Ratt vocalist Marq Torien, this L.A. metal band also included ex-King Kobra guitarist Mick Sweda, bassis Lonnie Vincent, and drummer Jimmy D'Anda. Their style was strongly influenced by bands such as AC/DC and Van Halen, later going in a bluesier direction. Torien's personality often drew comparisons to David Lee Roth. The group had a couple of MTV hits off their self-titled debut but faded away after their second album. Song titles like Do me Raw, Hard As a Rock and Kissin Kitty give a fairly accurate impression of the band's worldview.
