One of rock'n'roll's finest hours,
By Cole (downtown Cleve) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Never Surrender (Audio CD)
Triumph was one of the most energized rock bands ever. They had a stretch run of 6 albums that were just great from beginning to end...(no filler) Not too many classic rock-n-roll bands have done that. Probably also why they didn't get too much radio play-they never knew what to release as a single. Always compared with Rush, as a Canadian power trio- their live shows were awesome.Rush had all the style-but Triumph might have been the better STRAIGHT AHEAD ROCK band. Never Surrender is possibly their best album- ? it's a toss-up though between several.All the songs are great.. the best song from this is 'Battle Cry,' which has stylings reminiscent of Zeppelin and P.Floyd. Other classics would include 'ordinary man' 'blinding light show,' 'Just a game,' 'Fight the good fight,'etc.. Triumph was a helluva good band.

Only 9 reveiws before mine?,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Never Surrender (Audio CD)
I bought this on vinly when it was released I think 1983? Any how this is an album that belongs in any collection. Triumph like the band Rush does not have to write hard rock tunes so that us the fans can feel their power. I hope fellow reveiwers are following me on this. They play with so much power that it does not have to be hard to feel it. Very under rated band by some. Would have been interesting if they had stayed together longer even though they had a good run. Would love to see them reunite. With that all being said this is a solid rock cd, although I do not have to tell the older fans that. Glad that I bought this cd.

Yet Another Great Triumph Reissue,
By
This review is from: Never Surrender (Audio CD)
NEVER SURRENDER is yet another great reissue of a Triumph CD. The remastering job is sterling, and the songs are all great, especially the cautionary "A World Of Fantasy", which warns us that we're better off sticking with the tried-and-true than hopping trends. I should know, because sticking with what was real when choosing music to buy at a store caused one of the clerks to call me "sweet pea" because she admired me for buying "real" music whereas so many people under 40 prefer rap and dance-pop. Overall, this CD, along with JUST A GAME, ALLIED FORCES, PROGRESSIONS OF POWER, and THUNDER SEVEN is part of the essential Triumph library.
