Kicking off our top ten Kix songs list is this track that owes just a little debt to one of their main influences: AC/DC. It is taken from 1991’s Hot Wire album and was released as a single from it. Upon its release, the album peaked at number sixty-four on the Billboard 200. It did not sell as well as the previous album Blow My Fuse.
Next up we have a song taken from the band’s third album released in 1985 titled Midnite Dynamite. Out of the ten songs featured on the record, seven of them were written by Purnell along with hit songwriter Bob Halligan Jr who has also worked with Kiss and Judas Priest. This song is one of them.
Here we have the title track from the fourth Kix album released in 1988. It was written by Donnie Purnell and was the third of five singles to be released from the album. Here the band sound like what could best be described as a hair metal version of AC/DC. The album got to forty -six on the Billboard 200.
This next track on our Kix Songs list is the title track of the second Kix album released in 1983. The album reached 177 on the Billboard charts and showed a more commercial direction than their debut album. It was also the first Kix record to enlist the use of outside songwriters. The song is actually one of several cover songs on the album, with ...
Here is another track taken from Blow My Fuse.It was another single taken from the record. Although it is a very good track and a classic example of commercial eighties hair metal, unfortunately it completely failed to chart, much like a lot of the band’s singles. It was written by Donnie Purnell along with Taylor Rhodes.
Kicking off the second half of this list we go back to Kix’s self-titled debut released in 1981 with one of its singles. The sound here is rather different to what the band would become known for. It is much lighter in tone and does not have that anthemic style of the later records. Although it has the AC/DCvibe, it is not very heavy at all.
And here we have the opening title track from third album. It is another of the seven songs that Donnie Purnell wrote with Bob Halligan Jr. It is a classic piece of 1980’s anthemic rock that is reminiscent of other bands who were around at the time such as Motley Crue and Dokken. It was also released as a single and failed to chart.
At number three we have another song from Blow My Fuse. Here is yet another song where the band’s AC/DCinfluence is very evident. The riff to this song has a particular similarity to “You Shook Me All Night Long.” This song was written by Donnie Purnell along with Phillip Brown and Crack The Sky frontman John Palumbo.
Just off the top spot we have a song from the most recent Kix album Rock Your Face Off released in 2014. This album was their first for nineteen years since Show Business in 1995. Donnie Purnell did not rejoin the band for this album and he is replaced by Mark Schenker. It got to number forty-eight on the Billboard, making it their second highest c...
At the top spot we have this power ballad taken from Blow My Fuse which was written by Purnell, Bob Halligan Jr. and John Palumbo. To this day it is their most successful release, peaking at number eleven on the Billboard Hot 100. It is their only ever top forty hit, which has led to the band being classed as a one hit wonder.
Dec 20, 2012 · Kix, a hard-rock band that reached its commercial peak in the late 1980s and early 1990s with songs like "Don't Close Your Eyes," "Blow My Fuse," "Cold Blood" and "Girl Money," will perform...
