From Wikipedia (see the complete Wikipedia entry for Kick Axe)

Kick Axe is the name of a heavy metal band from Canada that reached its climax in the 1980s. In that period, they produced 4 albums during their career, with the longest gap between albums being 18 years. They were: Vices, Welcome to the Club, Rock The World and Kick Axe IV.

The band had minor success and was able to tour with some of the biggest names in the mid-eighties before disbanding. The band was able to get signed to the label that made Quiet Riot headliners, but were never able to match the same level of stardom.

The band's classic line-up was George Criston (vocals), Brian Gillstrom (drums, percussion), Victor Langen (bass), Larry Gillstrom (guitar) and Raymond Harvey (guitar). For their new album, Kick Axe returned without notable singer George Criston, but instead with their original (before the band's commercial debut) singer Gary Langen behind the mic.

Kick Axe's greatest hits include "Vices", "Alive and Kickin´", "Heavy Metal Shuffle", "Stay on Top", "On the Road to Rock", "Welcome to the Club", "Make Your Move", "Rock the World" and the ballad "Never Let Go".
