The American rock band Winger formed in 1987 and they released their third studio album Pull in 1993. Their music changed from the glam metal to a more aggressive and darker musical style. The political messages in the lyrics brought both their music and vocals to a higher level. The clean production and melodic changes lean towards progressive rock/metal. All the characteristics of the guitar-driven sound keep songs like “Down Incognito” and the groovy “Blind Revolution Mad” in tone. Their absolute masterpiece “Who’s the One” is the last track and is an acoustic ballad of the best kind.
Winger could be categorized as one of the many bands who stepped into the last wave of the glam metal scene. Compared to many others they showed their true skills by evolving to a band which created clever melodies and clean vocals in their hard rock sound.
