The Last Drive

They continued to appear live in Athens and many other cities in Greece, and in the spring of 1987 they toured abroad for the first time, in Germany, Italy, France and the Netherlands.

In 1988, having replaced Nick "Pop Mind" with Panos Kasiaris on rhythm guitar, they released Heatwave, which was produced by Peter Zaremba of the Fleshtones.

During the early 1990s, they were perceived as a part of the "explosion" of the hard rock/indie Greek scene, which led to increased popularity among rock fans in Greece.

They played as a support act for the Wipers, The Jesus and Mary Chain, The Gun Club, and toured Germany with Dead Moon.

The Last Drive commemorated their 10th anniversary and completed a tour in Spain with a live performance (including a pie fight) at the "West Club" on December 23, 1993.

They signed with the multinational BMG Hellas and released Subliminal, an album featuring songs with a slower tempo than previous works.

Several months later, the Last Drive disbanded after twelve years of touring and establishing a strong fan base in Greece and other countries with their dynamic live performances.

Yiorgos Karanikolas created the band Blackmail, who generally picked up from where the Drive had stopped, but with a greater emphasis on neo-psychedelia, and became quite popular at the time.

Finally, they were the headliners on the first day of the "Indie Rocket Festival 2007" (along with the Devastations, Acid Cobra and The Cesarians) that took place in Pescara, Italy on June 22 .

In April 2010, an art and comics anthology titled "At The Drive Ink" was published, featuring artwork by 31 Greek artists inspired by the songs from "Heavy Liquid".
