Rockaholic
Rockaholic is the eighth studio album by Warrant, the American glam metal band. It came out on 17 May 2011 on Down Boys Records, following Born Again in 2006 and arriving before Louder Harder Faster in 2017.
The record matters mostly for who is singing on it. It is the first Warrant album to feature Robert Mason, the band's third lead vocalist. He took over from original frontman Jani Lane in 2008, after Lane rejoined for a reunion tour and then left for the second time that year. Lane himself had earlier replaced Jaime St. James, who sang on Born Again. For anyone following the group's story beyond the late-80s hits, this is the album that shows the band under a new voice.
