These days, the word “extreme” is applied to sports drinks, snowboarding, and anything else that yields an intense experience. But there’s another definition appropriate for that term: Out there. In the ‘80s and ‘90s, the metal band Extreme proved it could fulfill both definitions equally. Blending elements of metal with pop and prog-rock, you never know what you’ll get with this unique band.
In 1985, Extreme joined the ranks of numerous other hair metal bands that were popular at the time. Nuno Bettancourt formed the band and helmed its pioneering music. Rather than producing the harsh riffs metal was known for, the band incorporated acoustic work into their songs that produced two major hits: “More Than Words” and “Hole-Hearted.”
Best known for their concept album Pornograffiti, about seeking genuine, lasting intimacy in a world that favors shallow, carnal relationships, Extreme is a band that’s proved time and time again it isn’t afraid to experiment. That’s one reason why Extreme tickets sell so quickly. If you’re a fan, than you’d be wise to seek out concert tickets today!
