CD Reviews

Great 1980s Hair Metal CD!
04/30/2003
(4 out of 5 stars)

"This was THE best band to come out of Tennessee in the mid 80s, however, they actually broke up in 1989, not 1999 like the editorial review states. This CD was released originally as a 7-Song EP called "Mark of the Rocker" and received alot of airplay in Knoxville, TN and surrounding areas. It also has 5 great demo tracks that were added to this release that the band had originally recorded for MCA records when they were negotiating a deal with that label. Overall, it's a great CD and a bit of nostalgia for anyone who lived in the middle Tennessee area in the 80s. It's definitely worth adding to your 80s Hair Metal CD collection."
Great 80's Hair Metal CD...Motley Crue Influenced
S. Johnson | 01/25/2008
(4 out of 5 stars)

"I've seen this band several times in the 80's. Especially memorable was the famous Saturday Night On The Town show in Knoxville, TN. I think they played in front of around 15000, great show from what I remember.

I had this album in 1985 and now can't find it anywhere so I was really glad when I typed in Hard Knox on Amazon and this CD popped up. Not a bad CD for a local band and you can really hear the influences, especially Motley Crue, Hanoi Rocks, Alice Cooper. If you're fans of these 3 artists, you will love this 80's hair metal CD.

Knox Boys

"In 1986 or so, Hard Knox blasted onto the Nashville rock music scene. Their sassy, in your face, straddling the bass around the ankles, big drum, soaring vocals, and statigic guitar licks progress through power rock with a mission. They had an edge and a groove much like their influences; Motley, Kiss and Dio. For you Zoid fans, "Getaway" will be a favorite. Their take on 80's rock was much overlooked. If you can get a copy, pick this badboy up."
