MUSIC – Dee Snider’s Heaviest RAGE: “Stand By for Pain”

Man, if you’re craving that raw, unfiltered heavy metal fury from the ‘90s that hits like a sledgehammer to the soul, Widowmaker’s Stand By for Pain is your fix, Dee Snider dialing up the grit post-Twisted Sister with killer riffs, snarling vocals, and tracks like “Killing Time” that dive straight into the dark underbelly of the mind. Recorded in a blistering 30 days, it’s got that urgent edge of a band pouring everything out before the metal wave crashes, blending hardcore hooks with a ‘90s polish that still shreds today. Crank it loud and feel the adrenaline surge; this one’s a time capsule of pure rock rebellion you’ll blast on repeat.
