"It's harder and sexier than anything I've ever done," says Lita of the record, which was co-produced by Ford, her husband and former Nitro singer Jim Gillette, and Greg Hampton, the songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and producer known for his work with Alice Cooper, his band Science Faxtion (with Bootsy Collins and Buckethead and Brain from Guns N' Roses) and other rock notables. Lita is backed on the record by drummer Stet Howland, formerly of W.A.S.P., Hampton on bass, rhythm guitar and keyboards, Gillette on background vocals, and its vivid cover art is by Rob Zombie bassist and solo artist Piggy D.
The songs brim with a passionate adult eroticism and uber-hard rock sound highlighted by Lita's trademark searing guitar riffs. The album includes a keen and timely slice of social commentary on 'Patriotic SOB', sexy rave-ups like 'Piece (Hell Yeah)', duets with Gillette on numbers like the aptly titled 'Indulge', and 'Betrayal', which will be featured in the upcoming video game Br�tal Legend, in which Lita also voices one of the characters alongside Jack Black, Lemmy Kilmister of Motorhead and Rob Halford of JUDAS Priest. The recordings find her rocking, playing and singing with an amped-up fury and power like never before that's also informed by her personal growth as a wife and mother as well as legendary rocker.
Lita leapt back into action last summer with a triumphant performance in the middle of a tornado at the Rocklahoma festival followed by an appearance at the Rock The Bayou festival in Texas in the wake of a hurricane. She began her career at age 17 as lead guitarist in the groundbreaking all-female band The Runaways. Her own career includes such best-selling albums as Out For Blood, Dancin' On The Edge, Stiletto, Dangerous Curves and 1988's million-selling Lita as well as such signature songs as 'Kiss Me Deadly' (a #12 hit single), 'Shot Of Poison', 'Hungry' and her Top 10 hit duet with Ozzy Osbourne, 'Close My Eyes Forever'. Her dynamic concert performances were known for not just holding their own among the boy's club of hard rock but giving them a run for their heavy metal money.
