No matter your point of view of Lita Ford, there is no difficulty in recognising the amount of personal turmoil she manages to get out of her system in the second of her comeback albums, Living Like A Runaway.

The ex-Runaways singer/guitarist was out of the scene for so long from 1995 and the 2009 release of Wicked Wonderland that the rock world wondered whether the first woman of heavy metal would ever pick up a guitar in anger again. With this new album, the answer is most certainly yes and reading through the lyrics the anger is so intense, so dramatic and so passionate that it gives the songs that little bit of extra spice that makes you thankful that you never get on her wrong side.
