Mötley Crüe: Anthems

Mötley Crüe made their career on fist-jacking anthems and the occasional power ballad, ditties that said as much about young sexual desire as they did Hollywood's scuzzy underbelly. Mick Mars' pummeling riffs, Vince Neil's howls, and Tommy Lee's cavernous drums elevated bassist Nikki Sixx's songs to the rock 'n' roll stratosphere. And their “Brownsville Station” cover still out-rocks the original.
