About this album

Vital Signs is the album that turned Survivor from hard-rock contenders into AOR mainstays. Released in 1984, it pairs muscular guitars and stadium-sized choruses with a smoother, more polished songwriting approach, a shift that helped the band reach a wider rock audience. The album produced some of their best-known songs, including I Can’t Hold Back and The Search Is Over, both of which became defining radio staples and helped establish the group’s balance of power and melody. Firmly rooted in mid-80s arena rock, Vital Signs remains the band’s most commercially important statement and one of their most durable releases.
