Magnum

A venerable Birmingham, England-based melodic hard rock outfit, Magnum emerged in the early 1970s, and over the decades developed a sound that straddled the line between heady art rock and commercial pop.

The band found success in 1982 with the release of their third studio LP, Chase the Dragon, which spawned a handful of hit singles in the U.K.

They reached their commercial zenith in 1988 with their seventh effort, Wings of Heaven, which cracked the Top Ten at home and also made a strong showing in the European market.
