With largely the same lineup that produced the stellar Idol, W.A.S.P. released the similarly conceptual Still Not Black Enough to eager fans everywhere. Still Not Black Enough is not strictly a concept album, however, and much less a rock opera but the album is nevertheless based on the more keyboard-heavy moments of the Idol and deals with Lawless' personal demons. That is, until track 6 where a syrupy and wildly inferior version to "Hold on to My Heart" titled "Keep Holding On" absolutely kills the buzz.
