Shout at the Devil displays
Mötley Crüe's sleazy and notorious yet quite entertaining
metal at its best. When compared to its predecessor,
Too Fast for Love, one can see that the band's musical range has certainly widened over the course of these two albums; the record features catchy, hard-rocking songs, but also includes an instrumental (
"God Bless the Children of the Beast") and a powerful cover of
the Beatles'
"Helter Skelter." While such later albums as
Dr. Feelgood would achieve a higher amount of critical acclaim, no
Mötley Crüe album surpasses the quality of
Shout at the Devil. [In 1999,
the Crüe remastered and reissued
Shout at the Devil on their own
Motley/
Beyond label with four bonus tracks: three demos, including versions of the title track and
"Looks That Kill," and a previously unreleased song.]
