Let me start off stating I don;t expect much if any responses to this thread since I am picking an obscure group today.

Icon is a group from Phoenix, Arizona whose debut album came out in 1984.  Icon was hard rock band, similar to Kick Axe, with some glam touches.  Debut album was released on Capitol records. I believe they released one single "On Your Feet" which did nothing chart wise.  Favorite songs are (Rock On) Through The Night, Killer Machine, On Your Feet, World War, and Rock N' Roll Maniac.  Anyone else ever heard of this band?  any thoughts?


Tracklisting

   1. (Rock On) Through The Night
   2. Killer Machine
   3. On Your Feet
   4. World War
   5. Hot Desert Night
   6. Under My Gun
   7. Iconoclast
   8. Rock N' Roll Maniac
   9. I'm Alive
  10. It's Up To You

I've heard the name and seen the album but I never gave them a shot. 
I vaguely remember a lot of multi-color spandex in the photo.  lol

I do remember it but haven't heard it in probably 20 years.

Never actually owned it, but one of my best friends had this on vinyl.
The only thing I remember is the singer's voice somehow reminded me of Blackie Lawless,
and I hate WASP...  arrow

Yep, I have that one and Night of the Crime.  Right Between the Eyes is actually their worst album of the 3 but still a good one.

If it's any consolation, I'd bet a case of Miller Lite that Zeke's Neighbor has that one-- possibly on vinyl as well as cd...
