Insight

Canadian hard rockers FIST were formed in 1979 by guitarist/vocalist Ron Chenier. In the same year, the band released their debut "Round One" on a small indie label. The combo was subsequently signed to major label A&M Records, but there was a band of the same name in England at almost the same time. Therefore, the Canadians had to release their albums under the name MYOFIST from that point on. The fourth album "In The Red", released in 1983, is one of the highlights of the Canadian rock scene - something WRABIT paired with DEEP PURPLE, DIO & WHITESNAKE. Engineered and produced by world renowned producer Nick Blagona. Blagona produced numerous projects with artists such as Deep Purple, Rush, etc. In the Red was released worldwide in February of 1983. The single, “If I’m Not Loved”, generated enormous airplay in North America. Remastered on Bad Reputation in 2022.
