Nikki Sixx

Nikki was born Frank Carlton Serafino Ferrana (some sources say Ferrano) on December 11, 1958, 7.11AM in San Jose, CA. "I was early as I could be", Nikki said in The Dirt. "And even back then, still up from the night before." He was abandoned by his father at an early age, and raised by his mother Deana Haight, who was a singer in Frank Sinatra's band at one point. They moved around the country a lot and when Nikki was four, his mother remarried. They moved to Mexico when he was six, the best time of his childhood. Not long after that, they joined Nikkis grandparents Tom and Nona Reese in Idaho. That's where he got his first phonograph, a plastic toy that played singles.

The album "The Heroin Diaries\" is the product of a true artistic vision. Its open-wound honesty is the paintbrush and we are the mural. It is an experimental rock confessional unlike anything Nikki Sixx, or anyone else for that matter, has ever done before. I\'m flabbergasted to say the least, and hopefully, my words here are enough for you to take this baby for a spin. A word of warning however, don\'t come in expecting a new rendition of Motley Crue, this is something completely different, and much, much more powerful. If you ever feel overwhelmed, this story of living on both ends of the spectrum might pick you right up off the ground. Tracks in Order: (A+) = Excellent 1. X-Mas in Hell 2. Van Nuys 3. Life Is Beautiful (A+) 4. Pray for Me 5. Tomorrow 6. Accidents Can Happen (A+) 7. Intermission 8. Dead Man\'s Ballet 9. Heart Failure (A+) 10. Girl with Golden Eyes (A+) 11. Courtesy Call 12.
