Vixen

Musical Group

American all-female glam metal / hard rock band formed in 1980; best known for the albums Vixen (1988) and Rev It Up (1990).

Formed in Minnesota in 1980; core lineup associated with Janet Gardner (vocals), Roxy Petrucci (drums), Jan Kuehnemund (guitar) and Share Ross (bass). Debut album 'Vixen' released 1988; 'Rev It Up' released 1990.

Two DeBaser reviews praise Vixen's place in late-80s/early-90s American radio hard rock, especially the albums Vixen (1988) and Rev It Up (1990). Reviewers highlight strong melodies, production improvements on the second album, and standout tracks such as "Love Is A Killer" and "Edge Of A Broken Heart". Overall a nostalgic, appreciative take on an all-female glam metal band formed in 1980.

For:Fans of 1980s glam metal and hard rock; listeners who enjoy female-fronted rock bands and nostalgic album writing.

'Rev It Up' is (or rather, should be considered) a piece of the history of American radio hard rock, rich in significant glamorous baroque elements, adorned with redundant pompousness, and crafted as brilliantly as few other albums in the genre.
