OUTSTANDING HARD ROCK!THIS IS THE BEST WAY TO DESCRIBE THIS VERY CLASSY ALBUM.AN ALBUM THAT WAS AHEAD OF ITS TIME BY A MILE.WELL YOU SEE THIS ALBUM HAS EVERYTHING,GREAT PRODUCTION,SUPERB VOCALS AND EXCELLENT SONGS ALL THIS COMBINED WITH A TIGHT MUSICIANSHIP AND WHAT YOU GET IS A CLASSIC ALBUM.THE PROBLEM HERE IS THAT THIS ALBUM IS VERY HARD TO FIND AND YOU WILL PROBABLY SEE YOURSELF PAYING BIG BUCKS TO SOMEONE FOR THIS.THIS ALBUM HAS ALSO BEEN RELEASED THROUGH THE REBORN CLASSICS SERIES BUT THE

From: ROB GARCIA Date: February 12, 2003 at 14:41
SOUND ON THIS IS CRAP!.TRY TO GET THE ORIGINAL ITS WORTH THE MONEY.

From: T Houston Date: June 26, 2003 at 8:39
This is a great album for it's time. The guitar player Rex Carroll sounds allot like George Lynch in some spots. The production is tight but I think the guitars could have been up in the mix a bit more. The singer whales like Coverdale. Not bad for 1985. I was lucky enough to find a copy of this online as my original dissapeared aound 1989. 9 out of 10 stars...............

From: freddy de keyze Date: June 26, 2003 at 8:50
Indeed a record worth the money. Underrated by a lot of people or even a lot of that same people don't know this stuff. Not classic, but pleasant to listen to !

From: M. Ribeiro Date: June 30, 2003 at 10:24
This "forgotten jewel" ROCKS from start to finish. Good singing, good playing, great songs and full of attitude...recommended to all air guitarists!!! If you see it for sale, do not hesitate to buy!

From: alberto Date: August 20, 2003 at 14:12
i need to buy this jewel,anybody can help me?aquaviva3@msn.com thx.

From: Scott Date: December 11, 2003 at 6:20
This is a great album,but on CD it only came out as a boot on the Reborn Classics "label" Great cd along the lines of Holland's Little Monsters. Melodic but heavy and great, shredding guitars that sounds like Loudness, Dokken and Black n' Blue. Would be nice to see Fierce Heart released by Wounded Bird, since Mirage Records was Atlantic.

From: rex carroll Date: December 29, 2003 at 13:38
hello, thanks everybody for your support. I don't know anything about this "re-born / classics" cd re-issue except that it is most definately a bootleg. I was never consulted about it, and I am defintely NOT getting any royalty from it, so PLEASE, DO NOT BUY IT. If you need a copy, please write me at rexcarrollband.net and I'll get you one. Meanwhile, I am working on a legitimate re-release. Meanwhile, please check out whitecrossmusic.com and rexcarrollband.net for info on NEW music.

From: Rycheage Date: March 13, 2004 at 19:26
There are some power rockers on here, like 'Lions Share', 'Out For Blood' and 'Search And Destroy', which sounds very much like AC/DC doing melodic metal. Others which stand out include 'Never Gonna Cry' which could be an Eyes track for all we know, and the title track 'Fierce Heart'.

From: El Lokko Date: May 9, 2004 at 22:34
Itīs a great record thatīs neraly 20 years old and still rocks. :-) Iīd be happy if anyone could tell me were to buy the record. I sold all my vinyls a while ago, including Fierce Heart. :-( El Lokko

From: laurie Date: December 29, 2004 at 19:12
Rex Carrol is a real guitar God. yet unassuming?!

From: Nick C Date: January 28, 2005 at 16:33
Jeeez now this is an excellent album. Right from the off it rocks, the riff for Fierce Heart is great, Heroes is a superb track and Never Gonna Cry is a mega anthem of a song with a totally killer chorus. All the songs are well written and the guitar playing is like... Gary Cooper ... superduper (Young Frankenstien haha). A much loved album. I think rycheage comes close with AC/DC does melodic rock!

From: Chad Date: January 30, 2005 at 0:10
I can't believe I have not commented on this one yet.I agree with Nick, what a great album.From start to finish, this is good quality melodic rock.Not really a bad song on this one except for the instrumental opener echoes.Even that one is tolerable as it is short and goes right into the title track.This one got plenty of turns in my cassette player in high school.I could not really get any of my buddies into this band for some reason.Maybe not hard rock enough.It is does have some balls however

From: AOR freaky Date: January 30, 2005 at 3:44
Not bad at all, this one.

From: Stu Date: February 11, 2005 at 12:32
This is a pretty good cd. The musicianship is top notch. It features guitarist Rex Carroll who later went on to form Whitecross, which I think is better than Fierce Heart. So if you like Fierce Heart check out Whitecross & see the full guitar potential of Rex's guitar skills.

From: Metalhead66 Date: February 11, 2005 at 15:49
Man this REALLY Dented My head back in 85. Rex going for the Throat on the fiddle.He Should be up there with the top ten Guitar players of the 80's!!!The singer has a Cool voice too!!!9/10!!

From: larry elkins Date: February 14, 2005 at 16:10
first of all,thanks to everyone for their nice comments.a few things for the record though.i put fierce heart together.i also disbanded it after the first album to go solo,which has paid off immensely.rex is a talented musician,and i wish him the best.but he has no authorization to make a copy,be it c.d.or any recorded nature whether for sale or anything.i am the majority copywrite owner of the songs exept the song'echoes'.drop me a line on my site.larry{google.com.}larryelkins

From: fretboardfrenzy Date: March 2, 2005 at 22:15
this album is hard rock masterpiece! a real treasure from 1985... vocals, guitar solos, bass, compositions... all of them are excellent! unforgettable music work in my honest opinion. i love this album. 10/10

From: matt subsinski Date: April 5, 2005 at 12:54
larry elkins is also the lead singer in fierce heart,not just the bass player that you have listed.he also did all of the background too.

From: Muddley Date: April 24, 2005 at 16:15
Im picking this one up tomorrow. Cant wait.

From: Rafo Phoenix Date: August 10, 2005 at 23:53
Good Hard album with Melodic and AOR bits, claro que si un buen album de Hard Rock con sus toques Melodicos y AOR, ala gente metida en este mundo sin duda alguna gustara, los cortes que mas gustan Heroes, Fierce Heart, Out for Blood, Lion's Share cortes con fuerza y energia que llena tu alma y corazon y te alimenta con ese sonido de los LEGENDARIOS E IMCOMPARABLES 80, un disco a tener en cuenta, da gusto saber que hay tantos albums de los gloriosos 80 por descubrir este es uno.

From: POTENTE Date: April 29, 2006 at 16:23
This album rocks from start to finish. In terms of "sound" It was ahead for the time of recording, sound like a '89-'90 production, thanks of the abilities of the Lord-Alge Bros. Excellent songs, Larry Elkins play bass and sing (great voice!) Rex Carrol play the guitar VERY GOOD and the drums are programmed by Chris Lord-Alge and sound VERY real.The band DOESN'T sound like ACDC(ŋ?)as said above,this is AOR/HardRockin' tunes.NO fillers here.Get it if you can,you will love this album.9/10

From: angusshenkofspade Date: June 8, 2006 at 5:45
I remember perfectly the day i bought this LP at my favourite import record shop in Paris. I was very exciting : it looked great. When I went bachome and listened to it, I said whaaaaaaaaaw : I liked it very much despite the drum sound (a little electronic) ; but the guitar and voice sounded great !

From: rick kerch vzla Date: January 8, 2007 at 21:37
Masterpiece for hungry ears!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

From: Clayton77 Date: January 9, 2007 at 7:58
This is an ALLTIME-CLASSIC!!! Highly recommended and simply A MUST HAVE!!!! (10/10)

From: warrant_ero Date: June 23, 2007 at 1:42
This is a classic album from 1985, I had purchased it on cassette tape back in the day. Does anyone know if it will be released on cd or where I can get a copy of the CD if possible? Thanks.

From: O.P. Date: August 11, 2007 at 6:00
this will be re-released on Retrospect Records very soon

From: Figge Date: August 11, 2007 at 22:22
"Never Gonna Make Me Cry" is a huge favourite from this era. Great song! The sound could've been improved on this album though. Elkins had a very good voice. Some fillers here but overall an enjoyable disc.

From: shoemaker Date: February 22, 2008 at 6:01
Solid hardrock album with a slice aor touch (compared to WHITECROSS). "Never gonna cry" is one of the strongest moments on this album.

From: BIG-TIME Date: August 4, 2008 at 10:51
Got this on Retrospect Records and what can I say...AWESOME pure 80's hard rock what a cracker!!! Rycheage you must be def AC/DC no don't think so...singer has a killer voice sounds like coverdale and jeff scott soto guitarist kicks total ass this is better than most of the other crap at the time like Ratt and Dokken...KEEP ROCKIN ALL!!!

From: hernanHRM/AOR Date: January 5, 2009 at 7:27
Killer!! Album my favorite Song Heroes

From: lalo r.o.c.k. Date: July 1, 2009 at 14:09
Great

From: lalo r.o.c.k. Date: July 1, 2009 at 14:15
Great Melodic Hard Rock,in the same league like Fifth Angel,Marchello,killers riffs by the guitar god Rex Carrol,Never gonna make me cry is my favorite track,a wet dream for any hard rock Aor lover,9/10.

From: gregmanimal Date: October 27, 2012 at 8:45
An underrated classic. The guitar riffs, the solos, the refrains...everything.

From: 123charpenay Date: October 18, 2018 at 14:04
dieter the boss of schmankerl records is a magician cause he have very often some hidden treasure.since 1985 ,shame on me, i ve never heard anything about fierce heart.i don t know this band.discover this jewel last week in the new arrival cd s of schmankerl records.so i go on you tube for discovering this unknow band.i was not disapointed,what fabulous hard rock,what sound!!!receive this masterpiece yesterday.this cd is an exceptional mix of paul sabu (for the voice),fith angel,marchello and melidian.my cd is a reissue from " aor boulevard" with 3 bonus tracks.the bonus tracks are some demos.track 10 "power to rock" is a killer song but the sound is just decent.the two others bonus tracks (getting lost inside your love and bad child) are some very great songs but the sound is awful.i can add that for the 3 bonus tracks the order on the back cover of the cd is not good.aor bldv is a nice company but very amateur.they put on the market cd s with a rotten sound. (see dallas).

From: rick kerch vzla Date: November 4, 2018 at 22:17
A solid Heavy Hard Rocking release...it's a shame they did not continue after this debut...tracks # 1 (great guitar intro),2(great),3,4(great),6 & 9 are the ones for me...if you are into The Rods or Samson(Nicky Moore era)then this release will put a :-) in your face.80/100
