Rage is a power/speed metal band from Germany, that was formed in 1983.Their lineup is:Peter "Peavy" Wagner - Vocals, Bass (1983-)Victor Smolski - Guitar, Keyboards (1999-)Andre Hilgers - Drums (2007-) It's the year 1986 and the relatively unknown power metal band Rage, formerly called Avenger, release their first album under their new name - Reign Of Fear. Two years later, their third album Perfect Man is considered an essential listen for the metal community. More successful albums follow, namely The Missing Link and Black In Mind. Towards the end of the century Rage change their style and come up with the experimental XIII and Ghosts, featuring (again) a new lineup. Seemingly nothing can surprise us after that. But Rage prove the world wrong by releasing Welcome To The Other Side and Unity, almost traditional power metal records with just a touch of prog, which culminated in Speak Of The Dead, that blended all their previous styles together into an amazing album. Their next child, Carved In Stone, sees the band settling down comfortably in the power metal zone. It's the year 2010 and the band embark on their 19th journey - Strings To A Web, marking almost a quarter of a century long contribution to the music world. « hide
