WOLF: Head Contact 12". Check sample
Head Contact rock 'n' Roll
B/w "soul For The Devil" (extended Version) Chrysalis, Chs 12 2592
underrated NWOBHM band first called leviathan then Black Axe and finaly Wolf.
Carlisle based Hard Rock band Black Axe formed in 1977 under the original moniker of Leviathan. It would be three years and the adoption of the Black Axe handle before the Cumbrian group would gain any kind of recognition thanks to the release of the 'Highway Rider' single.
The single not only enjoyed strong sales and a good deal of press interest from 'Sounds', but it led to a major recording contract with Chrysalis Records. However, in retrospect the Chrysalis deal struck a fatal blow to any possible success, the band being persuaded to take on a further name change to Wolf. The single 'Head Contact (Rock n' Roll)' was released to favourable reviews, but a recorded album was shelved and the group dropped from the company roster.
Year: 1982
