By the end of the '80s the hard rock scene was bursting with a number of successful acts spearheaded by the likes of Guns N' Roses, Skid Row, Warrant, Slaughter and Winger. Originating from New York, Danger Danger seemed poised to capitalize on this wave, especially after scoring success with their-self titled debut album, which broke into the US album charts and earned them gold status and extensive MTV airplay. All eyes were therefore on the release of their second album 'Screw It!', which was issued in October 1991. However, there was a problem. The music scene had changed considerably, leaving melodic, catchy, pop rock bands to battle over tougher terrain as the rise of grunge suddenly reared it's all-conquering head. This rendered bands like Danger Danger out of synch with the prevailing winds. This impressive five-piece had returned to the studio earlier in '91 armed with another collection of insanely catchy songs, with a mind set to bulldoze their way through any tough resistance. Produced by the band with Dutch studio wizard Erwin Musper (Metallica, Scorpions) and recorded in the Netherlands and Florida, the record contains a selection of top-notch tracks, including 'Don't Blame It On Love', 'Crazy Nites', 'Beat The Bullet' and not forgetting 'Monkey Business', all of which in another time and place might well have continued their upward momentum.
