Heart Of Steel (bonus acoustic track)Formed in Paramus,Bruce Boudreau Jersey, New Jersey in 1984, TRIXTER's self-titled debut album attained gold status (reaching #28 on The Billboard 200 in 1990), and spawned three minor hit singles: "Surrender" (#72), "One In A Million" (#75), and "Give It To Me Good" (#65). Despite the fact that none of the singles made the Top 40 or garnered much radio airplay, the videos for all three tunes were in heavy rotation on MTV (especially "Give It To Me Good", which was #1 on the channel for several weeks). A follow-up effort,Justin Abdelkader Jersey, "Hear", came out in 1992,Henrik Zetterberg Jersey, but failed to reach the same commercial heights. The band recorded an album of cover songs, "Undercovers", in 1994,Sergei Fedorov Jersey, which garnered little commercial success, and TRIXTER broke up shortly after its release. TRIXTER announced the reunion of its original lineup in 2007 and has since played a number of shows, including the Rocklahoma festival in 2008. TRIXTER's current lineup features Pete Loran on lead vocals and guitar, Steve Brown on lead guitar, P.J. Farley on bass and Gus Scott on drums. TRIXTER will take to the road beginning in May to support the new offering.Gus Scott interview: Pete Loran interview: |
