Max Webster - Mutiny Up My Sleeve (1978)

From the outset, Mutiny Up My Sleeve has a more balls-out swagger and strut to it than predecessor High Class in Borrowed Shoes, with a deliciously fat and biting tone to Kim Mitchell's lead guitar.

However, complete accessibility still wasn't the order of the day, with sudden time and key signature changes, swathes of synth (all hallmarks of prog-rock) going toe to toe with melodic and straightforward bids for mainstream appeal throughout the album.
