Hard Hitter

Originally released on Frontline Records in 1992, the Melbys attain their finest hour on Hard Hitter, on which they adopt the near-metal hard rock sound of bands like Guardian. Indeed, Tony Palacios plays guitar on the album, along with Oz Fox and Lanny Cordola. "Attitude" and "Violent Burning" encourage believers to remain strong and endure tests that come their way. The band perfected the AOR sound and dominated the radio charts with six hits off their three albums.
The album has been given the "collector's treatment" remastered to perfection by Bombworks Sound's, Rob Colwell, and part of the Legends of Rock series.
Limited to just 500 copies.
