The distribution of music in the 80s was horrendous. This song should have been the No 1 metal anthem of 1985, but I have only just heard about it in 2020, and that's because of youtube !
yup..i would have never known about this badass song in the 80s if not for watching the Chris Penn movie Wild Life. Couldnt believe this song wasn't constantly on radio metal shows we listened to every week...like Metal Shop..House of Hair....
@@ddown71 Yep. I'd never even heard the whole song until UA-cam. The other day something made me think about this song, but I had to google the movie soundtrack to figure out what it was.

What bothers me about the radio in the 80's was that bands like this never got any airtime. Everything was mainstream and if the band wasn't liked by the executives behind the desks they didn't give enough effort to advertise the music. Not that mainstream didn't have some good bands like this, but geez, this is the first time I've heard this band and I'm someone who grew up in the 80's.
Fuc£en awesome song! I just heard it this morning while waiting for food at the drive thru. 3-24-24. I’m 45 years old and been a metal head all my life. How did I miss this!!!???

June 24th 2023, this is the day I found this song. I have had this song in my head for damned near 40 years now. Growing up a metal head in the 80's I first heard this song playing in a soundtrack in a movie. I recall it was some coming of age flick and "to the ray-D-O" in the lyrics, that was all I had to go on. You would not believe how many obscure metal bands of the 80's I have listened through over the years trying to solve the provenance of this song. I can now go to my death with a sense of completion.
Its crazy,been banging my head since mid 80's.Never heard this until 2023 as well,and thats just bizarre to me.I also just discovered another by Maniac,called we curse at you.I discovered it in Nov.23.I cant get it out of my head.Sometimes i play it 2 or three times consecutively.Just cant believe i never came across it before.I may never have,if not for youtube.
I may not have been around in the 80s but this song is absolute fire 🤘🏻 (I’m 23) and this type of rock makes me feel pure nostalgia ❤️ #bringbackthe80s

I loved the wild Life . Had a crush on Jim (Ilan Mitchell - smith ) I love and miss the 80’s. I still love this song. Jim and those num chucks . The best !!!!!
+Scott D This was the song blaring in the background when the little fucker was working his num-chucks in his room in The Wild Life. OK Movie. Loved this song.
This track was made possible and saw the light of day thanks to EVH. He heard the demo tape from a stack he had in his car. It wound up on the Wild Life soundtrack. Such an undiscovered jewel of a song. I've loved it since i first heard it ⚡️⚡️
There's a New Wave band called Hanover Fist , too. From 1986, they had a Hit song called-- Razor Garden ....which is a good song even by 80's Metal & Rock & New Wave Rock standards
No contract with the record label and artist. Being inactive for years, Spotify does not have legal rights to stream their work. A pity, but that's to be expected with underrated bands as this.
It's kind of interesting. This band sounds professional through and through. How they play, how it's produced, how it's mixed etc. And still I've just accidentally found them by finding out they're on the soundtrack of The Wild Life along with Van Halen. I wouldn't say they are a fantastic band, and I'm way past my teens and already have my favourite classic metal bands so hearing them now doesn't really work for me because I've lost interest for material in this style of music. But I'm pretty sure if I had heard this as a kid I would have loved it, and it makes me wonder what makes a band like Ratt be successful while this one go unnoticed. To me they're of similar caliber.
It was just easy to go unnoticed back then, so luck played a bigger part. Also mediocre bands that were more persistent found more success than great ones that gave up sooner
@@johnnyguitar6639 That is 2 albums to their credit, how many do you have! back then just to get an album out was good! Success, well that was the issue. just because you as good a George Lynch (Dokken) don't mean your gonna be successful! Are they a solid tight band, yes! Did they make it, no. Welcome to the music industry!! it's worse now to make it than it was in 84!
They tried to roll off some famed page taken from the likes of Judas Priest, Quiet Riot, and possibly Don Dokken (you can notice the Under Lock and Key trademark sound here--coincidence?). Unrelated to the Electronic artist of the same name (The Tyger, Razor Garden, etc.).

this is good shit...
One of my favorite songs.
True... only this !!!

That dude always sounded very much like Ron Keel
I always thought it was Keel and wondered why I couldn't find it on any Keel album
Definitely! Hanover Fist has the right to rock!
He sure does and Ron keel sucks
It's not singing
It's just a sad imitation of Pee Wee Herman 👺
Always listen to this song with my dad in the truck!
Crank up the volume!
Awsome!!
Great song thanks 🤙
Great stuff
Calling Hanover Fist
MY FATHER TOOK ME TO SEE DEEP PURPLE AND BLUE OYSTER CULT OPENED IM A HIGHWAY STAR MADE MY HEARTRATE GO UP
