The song was later released on The Best of Hanoi Rocks compilation, and appears as a bonus track on this albums reissue. There was also supposed to be a title-track, but according to Razzle it was replaced with "Up Around the Bend". A music video was also made for "Don't You Ever Leave Me", but the song differs from the album version as it's shorter, has a different guitar-solo and only features Razzle's spoken words in the middle. A music video was also made for "Up Around The Bend", which received much airplay on MTV. The album also features some of Hanoi Rocks' biggest hits, like " Up Around The Bend", " Underwater World", "Boulevard of Broken Dreams", "Million Miles Away" and " Don't You Ever Leave Me". Ezrin knew that a more hard rock-style would sell more units in the United States. Ezrin wanted the album to have a heavier atmosphere and darker guitar playing than the band's previous efforts, still keeping it melodic and punky, and he also worked on the writing of almost every song on the album. The album's producer, Bob Ezrin had previously worked with big-name artists like Pink Floyd, Kiss and Alice Cooper, which was one of the main reasons Hanoi Rocks' wanted him to produce the album. Andy McCoy and Nasty Suicide later used the name as the name of their album, when they worked under the moniker " The Suicide Twins". Originally the album was supposed to be called Silver Missiles And Nightingales, but the name was changed at the last minute. This is their last album to feature drummer Razzle, before he was killed in a car accident on 8 December 1984.īefore this album, all of Hanoi Rocks' albums were released on Lick Records and Johanna Kustannus, but this was the band's first album on a major label, CBS.
