"Vixen's second album is the strongest "second album" ever released by an 80's rock band. The guitar work is first rate, the bass and drums fit perfectly, and the vocals are astonishing. Rev It Up has remained one of my favorites over the last decade and will continue as such. Whether you're driving, catching some rays, or anything in between, nothing will keep your blood pumping like Rev It Up. Thanks to Vixen for a timeless rock album!"
Vixen's powerful follow up

"I think with the first record Vixen was trying to break into a male controled metal field. With this second album they break even more ground. Start to finish this album rocks hard and fast. Songs like "Rev It Up," "Streets In Paradise" and "How Much Love" are all personal favorites."

"I love Vixen! Back in the days of men rockin' out dressing a little like women here we have the best female rock band ever! They had the hair... they had the moves... they had the talent! They could play with the big boys and keep up! They said in an interview once that as they were opening for the guys they'd sometimes come out to see if they were faking, but they weren't & they guys were shocked! They are amaaaaaaaaaaaaaazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Melodic female-fronted hard rock

"Vixen was a short-lived band from the late 1980s, with all female members, that played melodic hard rock. In their mellower moments, they could sound somewhat like Journey. In their harder moments, they could be quite metallic, on a par with Lita Ford. This CD is a remastered edition of their second album, and the sound engineering is extremely good. The songwriting is outstanding, and much more consistent than on their first CD. For the most part, these songs are appealing hard rock or glam metal tracks, with catchy hooks, tasteful guitar leads, and pleasant vocal harmonies. There is no weak material on this CD."
