[citation needed] Turn the Hell On failed to satisfy the label sales wise and Fist were dropped by MCA in early 1981.
[1] This new line-up included lead vocalist Glenn Coates from Hollow Ground, John Roach from Mythra, bassist Norman Appleby as well as Hill and Irwin.
Reviews were favourable for this album, with a few minor quibbles about the band sounding "too American" due to Glenn Coates smoother vocals.
There was some initial activity with this line-up e.g., a one off show at Headbangers Open Air in Germany, however, due to ill health, the band remained inactive shortly afterwards and again the album failed to make any major impact.
In 2013, Fist reformed with original members Harry "Hiroshima" Hill, Davey Irwin and Norman Appleby from the Back with Vengeance period.
Added to this line-up was new frontman Glenn S. Howes, a veteran of the NWOBHM scene after spending time in the groups Blitzkrieg, Tygers of Pan Tang and Avenger.
