No Sophomore Slump: The Best Second Albums in 80s Metal

Everyone talks about the debut album... but what about the follow-up? On this episode of Rock of Aging, Dave and Erika dive into the best second albums from some of our favorite 80s hard rock and metal bands. The sophomore release can make or break a band's career. Sometimes it's where a band perfects its sound, delivers its biggest hits, or proves the debut was no fluke. We'll discuss albums that took bands to the next level, sophomore slumps that weren't really slumps at all, and a few records that might even be better than the debut. Some of the bands we'll cover include: Van Halen Poison W.A.S.P Ratt Warrant L.A. Guns What are YOUR favorite second albums from 80s hard rock and metal bands?
