The venerable Canadian hard rock troupe Fist was founded in 1979 by
guitarist/vocalist Ron Chenier, and throughout the course of the
next decade or so was a popular touring act in Canada and abroad, though
superstardom was never quite in the cards.
Due to confusion with the British band
Fist,
some of their records were released as Myofist, and in at least one case
even the album name was different (1981's Fleet Street was also released
under the Myofist name as Thunder In Rock).
The band broke up in 1986, and in the intervening years Chenier would
occasionally resurrect the band with a new lineup and sometimes a new
album as well, most recently with Bolted Door in 2006.
Chenier has also served as a producer for many bands over the years.
