It includes both their biggest rock hit “”Cold Blood”” and their hit ballad “”Don’t Close Your Eyes””, which made it to #11 on the Billboard Hot 100 in late 1989.

Kix was another second tier hair band that I thought should have been more successful than they were. They were one of the pioneers in the genre, releasing their first album back in 1981. “Blow My Fuse” and “Cold Blood” got radio and MTV play, but this song was their only one to hit the pop charts, peaking at number 12. It starts with a piano, and then gradually builds in intensity before kicking in. Vocalist Steve Whiteman has a great voice, and Kix continues to reunite periodically to play live.
