About
Extreme is an American rock band formed in Boston, Massachusetts, in 1985, that reached the height of their popularity in the late 1980s and early 1990s. They have released six studio albums, two EPs (in Japan) and two compilation albums since their formation. The band was one of the most successful rock acts of the early 1990s, selling over 10 million albums worldwide.
Extreme achieved its greatest success with their second album Pornograffitti (1990), which peaked at number 10 on the Billboard 200, and was certified gold in May 1991 and double platinum in October 1992. The album featured the acoustic ballad single "More Than Words", which reached No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States.
While Extreme is primarily a hard rock band, their music has combined influences and elements of such genres as glam metal, funk, progressive, and on their fourth album Waiting for the Punchline (1995), alternative metal and grunge.

Extreme est un groupe américain de hard rock et funk metal, originaire de Boston, dans le Massachusetts. Formé en 1985, le groupe se dissout en 1996, puis un retour voit le jour en 2007 pour un nouvel album et une tournée mondiale en 2008. Son plus grand succès est le single More Than Words, une ballade acoustique de l'album Pornograffitti. L'album III Sides to Every Story contient trois parties : Yours, Mine et The Truth. La dernière partie est un triptyque de vingt minutes, Everything Under the Sun, où joue un orchestre enregistré à Abbey Road. La partie centrale, intimiste, morose et introspective, est écrite lorsque le second album du groupe ne se vendait pas.
Nuno Bettencourt reprend brièvement Voodoo Child de Jimi Hendrix dans Rest in Peace. Dans Peacemaker Die, il y a le discours de Martin Luther King qui commence par « I have a dream... ». Après cet album très alambiqué, le groupe revient à un style plus simple sur Waiting For The Punchline. Le succès n'est cependant plus au rendez-vous. Les singles successifs ne permettent pas au groupe de s'imposer, malgré une tournée en ouverture d'Aerosmith en 1994.
À la suite de la dissolution du groupe en 1996, le chanteur Gary Cherone fait partie de Van Halen de manière brève, pour l'album Van Halen III sorti en 1998 et Nuno Bettencourt enchaîna les groupes tels que Mourning Widows, Population 1 et DramaGods.
Extreme fait son retour sur la scène mondiale en 2008 avec l'album Saudades de Rock. Depuis, Gary Cherone formera le groupe Hurtsmile avec son frère Mark Cherone à la guitare, Joe Pessia à la basse et Dana Spellman à la batterie. À partir de 2009, Nuno Bettencourt devient le guitariste officiel de Rihanna. En 2014 et 2015, Extreme entreprend une tournée mondiale Pornograffitti 25th Anniversary Live pour célébrer le 25e anniversaire de l'album Pornograffitti.
