Haywire "Nuthouse (Japan, Attic, ALCB-158)"

Haywire is a Canadian Hard Rock/Glam Metal band, originally from Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island.

Nuthouse is the third album by the Canadian band Haywire, released in 1990. It went gold in Canada. The album was recorded in Norway with Bjorn Nessjo.

The Toronto Star wrote that "the band carries it off with enough energy to make the borrowings seem their own and with enough enthusiasm to overshadow the occasional lyrical lapses, the guitar hero moves and all the other hackneyed hard-rock trappings that the band has adopted."
