Electric Angels : Electric Angels


 Electric Angels 

was an American

 Hard Rock/Glam Metal

 band

 from Los Angeles

 that formed from the

 defunct pop group 

Candy 

featuring 

new singer 

Shane

 (Tommy Riggins/Shane Mansfield),

 guitarist 

Ryan Roxie

 (Ryan Rosowicz), 

and original 

Candy members

 bassist/songwriter

' Jonathan Daniel, 

and drummer

 John Schubert.

 The name 

Electric Angels 

was taken from an

 early Candy demo.

 After one year,

 the band relocated to

 New York City

and were 

signed to 

Atlantic Records 

within five months.

 One of their first 

New York shows 

was opening up 

for the British band

 Dogs D'Amour 

and 

Mother Love Bone.

The band was 

originally managed by

 guitarist

 Bruce Kulick 

 of Kiss fame, 

who also produced

 a demo

 for the band. 

One of the band's

 original unreleased songs, 

"Put the 'EX' in Sex"

 had conveniently become

 the title of a later 

Kiss song. 

Jon Bon Jovi 

was a fan of the band. 

Bon Jovi's song, 

"Bed of Roses, 

Bed of Nails" 

was a tribute to 

the Angel's

 "True Love and Other Fairy Tales" 

which included the lyrics, "

...our bed of roses

 has become a bed of nails". 

A blond backstage

 at an Angels show

 at Club Bene 

in Sayerville, New Jersey 

said to Bon Jovi, 

"Oh my god, you

 look just like

 Jon Bon Jovi." 

Bon Jovi contributed

 an endorsement statement

 to the promotional tape

 for Atlantic Record's, 

"Electric Angels."

Their self-titled debut 

was recorded in 

London in the autumn

 of 1989 

by record producer

 Tony Visconti, 

and released in

 February 1990. 

They were reviewed 

favorably as a 

cross between

 The Replacements 

and 

Hanoi Rocks. 

"The Drinking Song" 

from the debut album

 had a long run

 as New Jersey's 

WSOU's 

(Seton Hall college) 

third most played song.

The first single from their album, 

"Rattlesnake Kisses", 

featured actress

 Christina Applegate

 in the video

The band cited

 their musical influences

 including Kiss, 

The Ramones, 

The Replacements, 

Rick Springfield 

and 

George Jones

 and toured with 

New Jersey rockers

 Danger Danger, 

former Kiss

 guitarist 

Ace Frehley 

and Phoenix

 rockers 

Icon. 

Amongst the Angel's

 biggest fans 

are the Tattooed Angels, 

known for their 

lovely dispositions

 as well as 

sporting 

Electric Angels 

purple, 

red

 and black

 Coat of Arms

 tattoos.
