HELLO METAL HEADS- Tonight we present the second installment of our new series ROC N ROLL DETENTION ,as we are peeling back all the layers of the often overlooked ,but highly respected band BADLANDS.
BADLANDS was an American heavy metal band founded by former Ozzy Osbourne guitarist Jake E. Lee, former Black Sabbath members Ray Gillen (vocals) and Eric Singer (drums), as well as former Surgical Steel bass player Greg Chaisson. 
After the first Badlands album, Eric Singer was replaced by Jeff Martin. The group lasted from 1988 to 1993 and released three albums. Badlands (1989) and Voodoo Highway (1991) were released before Gillen left and was replaced by singer John West from New York. Gillen's death in 1993 effectively ended any hopes of reuniting the project. The album Dusk (a demo recorded in 1992–93) was released in 1998 with the then-deceased Gillen on vocals.
Metal Walt and Ian O'Rourke guide you on this episode as the two share their reflections on the two releases, what the music meant to them and the impact the band had on the rock landscape in the late 80's and early 90's.
