rowena on Jun 20th 2008
Extreme is an American funky metal rock band that achieved popularity in the late 1980s and early 1990s. The band members are Gary Cherone, Nuno Bettencourt, Pat Badger and Kevin Figueiredo. Extreme has released four studio albums, two EPs (in Japan) and two compilations since its formation. The band was one of the most successful bands from the early 1990s, selling over 10 million albums worldwide.
Extreme rose to fame with its 1990 release Pornograffitti, which peaked at number 10 on the Billboard 200, and was certified gold in May 1991 and 2x multi-platinum in October 1992. That album also featured the acoustic ballad hit single “More Than Words”, which reached #1 on Billboard’s Hot 100 in the United States. Extreme has recently finished work on Saudades de Rock, the band’s first release since their 1996 disbandment and 2007 reformation.
