Dee Snider has many fond memories to fall back on, but he'd rather not dwell on them. "As a creative person, I have always been more interested and excited about the project I am currently working on than the stuff I've done in the past," he told Songfacts regarding this song. "It's not that I'm not proud of my past (I am), but rather my passion lies in the present. My glory days are now, not decades ago. Yours should be too."
Snider has always championed heavy metal music, dating back even before his time in Twisted Sister. When Jamey Jasta of Hatebreed implored him to make a metal solo album, Snider ran with it. With Jasta producing, he put it together before he had a label deal to release it, naming it For The Love Of Metal at Jasta's suggestion. When they were finished, Napalm Records picked it up. "It wasn't for money," Snider explained. "It wasn't for anything but the love of metal."
