One of the first bands having chosen to call themselves Drive was a five-piece progressive metal / power metal / heavy metal / hard rock band formed originally in Houston, Texas (USA) by Rick Chavez and Mercy Valdez and having released two albums, Characters in Time (1988) and Diablero (1992).
“Drive soon found their voice in a young David Taylor, just barely out of his teens. In the mid ’80s, the band moved to Los Angeles, which was quickly becoming the epicenter of the ’80s metal scene. Winning a radio contest with their song I Need The Nights, Drive landed on the Best of the West compilation that was released on Rampage Records.

The album received tremendous reviews from the industry’s top hard rock press, including the coveted 5 “K” rating from Kerrang!
