Here we have the first album from Treat „Scratch and Bite“ released from Polygram Records in 1985.
TREAT or "THE TREAT" as they called themselves at first was formed by Robert Ernlund (Vocals) , Anders "Gary" Wikstrom (Guitar) and Leif "Lillen" Liljegren (Guitar) in Stockholm /Sweden in 1982. All three had all been playing together since early 1981 in "THE BOYS", a more straight ahead Rock band who sang in swedish only and recorded one album. It wasn´t until drummer Mats "Dalton" Dahlberg (ex-Highbrow, Power) joined the guys in the summer of 1983 that things started to happen. Dalton had some contacts within Swedish Polygram who at the time was looking for a new Swedish hardrock band to sign. At the same time, bass player Tomas Lind joined The Treat and all five of them begun to record new demo songs together in the Polygram studio. They all said in early interviews that they were influenced by bands such as Journey, Foreigner, Def Leppard, Boston, KISS, Whitesnake and Van Halen. For this album was the Line Up with Robert Ernlund (vocals), Anders Wikström (guitar), Jamie Borger (bass, Ex-SIX FEET UNDER, CAPRICORN, SWEDISH EROTICA), Joe Larson (drums, Ex-Six Feet Under, Power, Jammer) and Patrick Appelgren (Ex-Power) complete. They really came into the melodic scene with their third album „Dreamhunter“ 1987, what´s quite a pity because „Scratch and Bite“ and „The Pleasure Principle“ are excellent albums. I found the songs quite fresh, quite melodic and ready for every party for establishing. Of course the songs aren't so brilliant like the following albums but for their beginning they are terrific. On-thriller are sure „Scratch and Bite“, „Get You On The Run“, „Hidin´“ and the great ballade „We Are One“, excellent converted and unmistakably equating as the musketeer sentence „All for one and one for all“. Certainly something you should have!
