Extreme Artist Snapshot:

An anomaly within the hard rock scene of the mid-to-late 1980s, Boston's Extreme added a funky, chops-heavy element to their take on guitar-fueled hair metal. Led by lead singer Gary Cherone and virtuoso guitarist Nuno Bettencourt, the band released several albums before scoring a monster hit with the acoustic power ballad "More Than Words." The uncharacteristically tender song remains the band's best-known to this day. In 1997 Cherone took over lead vocal duties in Van Halen, appearing on one album, while Bettencourt released the solo album SCHIZOPHRENIC the same year. The band reunited several times in the ensuing years, and Bettencourt briefly spent time in Perry Ferrel's Satellite Party in the early 2000s.

Review

Spin (11/90) - "...a sinuously funky, streetwise, harmony-drenched effort..."

Title Note

Extreme: Gary Cherone (vocals); Nuno Bettencourt (guitar, keyboards, percussion, background vocals); Pat Badger (bass, background vocals); Paul Geary (drums, percussion).

Extreme's self-titled 1989 debut made the Boston quartet quite a "buzz band" in the hard rock underground, but it wasn't until their sophomore release one year later, PORNOGRAFFITI, that the band scored their breakthrough hit. In the spring of '91, the lovely acoustic ballad "More than Words" was released as a single, and instantly became a smash hit (nearly a year after PORNOGRAFFITI was first released). And while they scored another hit with the similarly styled "Hole Hearted," Extreme's new pop fans must have been surprised when they heard the rest of the album, which was comprised mostly of hard rock/heavy metal tunes.

The album was also the band's first stab at writing a concept album--it dealt with the media's subtle yet constant use of sex in advertising and it's effect on the public. If you're in the mood for rock with a progressive edge and loaded with six-string wizardry (courtesy of Nuno Bettencourt), just check out "Decadence Dance," "When I'm President," "Get the Funk Out," It('s A Monster)," "He Man Woman Hater," and the title track.
