Take the World by Storm is the debut studio album by the American glam metal band Slave Raider, released independently in 1986. In December 1987, the album was remixed and released to the public in 1988 through the Jive record label, suffering poor sales. The band did have a cult following in Minneapolis. The remixed Make Some Noise was released as a single and a promotional video was shot in The Twin Cities. In the remix, Make Some Noise was cut by around a minute and The Black Hole has a longer introduction. It was available scarcely on CD, cassette, and vinyl and was out of print until Divebomb Records reissued it and the band's sophomore release What Do You Know About Rock 'N Roll? in April 2015.[1][2][3][4]
