PRE-ORDER: EXPECTED TO SHIP 14 NOVEMBER
Originally released in June of 1985, Mötley Crüe’s third studio album Theatre of Pain ushered in a bold new sound and look while still maintaining the band’s signature hard rock intensity. This trendsetting album set the template in terms of style and music for many bands that followed, while the Crüe themselves continued to evolve their look and sound with each album.
Theatre Of Pain was the Crüe’s first LP to hit the US Top 10, landing at #6. It was a true Global Smash as well, hitting #7 Australia, #7 Sweden, #5 Finland, #11 Canada, and their first UK Top 40 album (#36). The album is currently RIAA Certified 4X PLATINUM in the US and 3X PLATINUM in Canada. The tour took them around the world: Japan, the US, Canada, Germany, France, Sweden, Finland, Norway, and Denmark.
The seminal video for their iconic track “Home Sweet Home” was #1 most requested for over 90 days and caused MTV to institute the “Crüe Rule”, where a video could only be eligible for the request line for 30 days!
