White Heat – We Never Heard Of You Either 1989

Here’s another band from the Canadian prairies. They only stuck around for the one album, and made a little indentation in what was a congested market at the time. From Winnipeg, Manitoba, these guys combine elements of Def Leppard hair metal, with Canadian AOR/rock in the shape of Boulevard, Glass Tiger and Honeymoon Suite. With a big label behind them, the sound on this album is a million bucks, all thanks to Rush side-arm Terry Brown, and you would’ve thought that CBS Canada could have done more to promote this band. Apart from the odd review in UK publications at the time, I don’t recall seeing any videos for this band, nor any indication of any 7′ single releases, though I understand there was one.
