Warrant - Born Again
It has been just shy of two decades since Warrant catapulted onto the national scene in 1989, and a lot has taken place since. Grunge came and went, Rap-rock came and went, and now a new breed of punk-laced, radio-friendly rock has flooded the market faster than the 'dirty rotten filthy stinking rich powers that be' can even count their cash. Yes, the music business has been through a lot in the past 17 years, but at least we have something to show for it…the true spirit of rock 'n' roll, as championed by the bands that have bucked trends and defied the odds by remaining true to their course. If Warrant isn't at the top of that list, it's only because they got tired of waiting around for recognition and headed back out on the road. True rock 'n' roll isn't dead it has just a lot harder to pin down.
With worldwide album sales approaching the ten million mark, and a laundry list of Top 40 radio singles that includes "Cherry Pie," "Heaven," "Down Boys," "Uncle Tom's Cabin" "I Saw Red" and "Sometimes She Cries," Warrant may be out of the mind of cookie cutter radio shows flocking to cash in on their modern rock flavors of the month, but they are not out of sight of their fans. Warrant and their like-minded hard rocking peers have learned over the past few years that there's power in numbers. Whether you call it nostalgia, hair rock, a flashback, or just rock 'n' roll, it is alive and well, and Warrant are proud to be at the head of the pack. "I think this music has finally gotten old enough to be cool again… Just like tight pants," states Jerry Dixon (bassist) with a laugh. "Everyone finally stopped laughing and said, 'Actually, that's kind of cool.' We took a lot of punches over the years, but I'm glad we stuck it out and lasted. Our approach to music is to just have a good time, especially with everything that's going on in the world. We are aware of world issues just like the next guy, but when we're onstage, it's all about having a good time."
