1 CD - UK Import on Rock Candy

The name Axe probably conjures up visions of a seething and full-on heavy metal band and, although there's nothing wrong with that, this band are far more nuanced. In fact, the band's music, whilst definitely hard rock, is imbued with accessible elements of melody and precision.

Initially named Babyface, they mutated into Axe after a couple of years and signed to MCA, issuing two reasonably well received albums of pomp/melodic rock before switching record label to ATCO Records and releasing ‘Offering’ in 1982. Produced by manager Al Nalli, the record gave the band a new lease of life and attracted praise for its direct approach and concise song writing. It was also a record that found the band playing to bigger audiences in the USA, supporting the Scorpions, KISS, and Judas Priest, whilst attracting unexpected airplay with songs such as ‘Rock 'N' Roll Party In The Streets’ and ‘Now Or Never’. It also includes a superlative cover of the Montrose classic ‘I Got The Fire’, which manages to burn as brightly as the original. Dipping back into their more complex previous music, the six minute long ‘Silent Soldiers’ showcases the band in full-on pomp rock glory but with a much heavier edge than they had before.

Pretty funny
Format: Hardcover
The book gives us a more focused outlook on Chieg Wiggum. Full of its funny moments, I`d recomend this to huge Simpsons fans as it seems the shows writers managed to give us another hit.

Not the best, but not the worst either
Format: Hardcover
By any means not the funniest book in the series, only the one on Krusty the Clown was more un-funny; but still a worthy addition to your collection and, just like all the others from the series providing a retrospective of anecdotes you might have forgotten.

Not that great
Huge "The Simpsons" fan. I watched all the episodes and read a lot of the comics and enjoy most. This one however was quite boring. Turns out I'm just not a big fan of Chief Wiggum. I really enjoyed The "Homer" and "Bart" book. But not this one. Maybe if you love Wiggum you'll love it. If you're not too fond of him then I wouldn't buy it.
