W.A.S.P. – Live... in the Raw (1987) Released in September 1987, Live... in the Raw is a powerful live album that captures the raw energy of W.A.S.P. in concert. Although it's primarily a live recording, it features one notable studio track — "The Manimal" — along with another new studio song, "Harder Faster." The album was recorded during the band's 1987 tour and serves as a gritty bridge between their early shock rock image and the more introspective direction of later albums. 🔥 Track Listing
