"Louder Than Hell" first turned up in June 1985 on Theatre of Pain, Mötley Crüe's album of that year, and with a title like that, subtlety was never on the menu. It's Nikki Sixx's baby from top to bottom: he wrote the music and the words, and on top of his electric bass he's credited with synthesizer and bass pedals.

Vince Neil takes the lead vocal, Mick Mars plays the electric guitar and Tommy Lee pounds the drums and adds percussion, with all four piling onto the backing vocals. Tom Werman produced it, and Duane Baron recorded and mixed it.
