About This Item
- Details
- Genre: Rock
- Description: Digitally remastered edition including 16 page full color booklet that contains a 3,500 word essay, enhanced artwork with previously unseen photos, band involvement and new interviews. It's often the case with artists that they produce their best work when they are most under the most pressure. For Kick Axe this theory proved to be true when they unexpectedly found themselves cast adrift from their American tag Pasha Records. It was a tough pill to swallow at first, but with the support of their Canadian tag CBS the band lived on to not only fight another day but also to deliver their most accomplished record. The Vancouver based quintet had made strong inroads into the world of hard rock and metal over the previous years, but had failed to connect on a commercial level. Their brand of tough muscular rock secured them a firm and committed following but various factors had prevented them from developing their unique abilities. The recording of Rock The World showed that they could not only write great material but also refine their style of grandiose hard rock to reach it's full potential. Issued in 1986, the record featured ten superlative tracks; from short sharp red hot rock to captivating widescreen epics such as 'We Still Remember', 'Magic Man' and 'Warrior', all emblazoned with grandiose arrangements yet offering a firm power metal foundation. The production, handled by the band, is crisp and tight, giving no indication that they were forced to record the album on a shoestring budget. Truly, this is one of the rock world's best kept secrets, deserving of a place in any discerning collection. Album Tracks 1. Rock the World 2. The Chain 3. Red Line 4. Devachan 5. Warrior 6. We Still Remember 7. The Great Escape 8. Medusa 9. The Dark Crusade 10. Magic Man
