Review:
The year is 1995 -- grunge is almost dead (but not quite) and the same thing can be said for the hair metal bands. Dokken is re-united and release Dysfunctional, Danger Danger releases Dawn, Skid Row unloads Subhuman Race -- and Warrant therefore unleashes Ultraphobic.
  In all honesty, Ultraphobic is not a horrible album for an '80s band trying to blend in with the grunge movement. It's also a very heartfelt album for those that actually pay attention to the lyrics. The pains of Jani Lane's divorce to Bobbi Brown are seen and felt in songs such as "Sum Of One", "High", and "Chameleon". I've said this many times, Jani Lane is perhaps one of the most overlooked songwriters of his time, and the aforementioned songs prove that.
  If you're looking for a guitar-driven sound, you will not find it on Ultraphobic -- there are however some very heavy guitar sounds. Joey Allen and Steven Sweet are not on this album, which may be sad for longtime Warrant fans. I find nothing wrong with Ultraphobic from start to finish as the songs I like the best are "Sum Of One", "Chameleon", "High", "Undertow" and "Stronger Now". I consider the rest of the album to be filler material, yet I still view Ultraphobic as being better than Vince Neil's latest solo attempts. Ultraphobic is worth the money to get a piece of Jani Lane's heart.
