I-Survivor iyiqembu le-rock laseMelika elidumile. Isitayela sebhendi singabalelwa ku-hard rock. Abaculi bahlukaniswa nge-tempo enamandla, umculo oshisayo nezinsimbi zekhibhodi ezinothe kakhulu.
Umlando wokudalwa kweqembu labasindile
Ngo-1977 kwakuwunyaka okwasungulwa ngawo iqembu le-rock. UJim Peterik ubehamba phambili ebhendini, yingakho evame ukubizwa ngokuthi "ubaba" weSurvivor.
Ngaphezu kukaJim Peterik, ibhendi yayihlanganisa: UDave Bickler - umculi nomculi wekhibhodi, kanye nomshayi wesigingci uFrank Sullivan. Kamuva, umculi webhesi uDenis Keith Johnson kanye nesigubhu uGary Smith bajoyina iqembu.
UJim uqale waqamba ibhendi entsha ngokuthi I-Jim Peterik Band. Unyaka usudlulile, futhi uPeterik wamema abacula yedwa ukuthi bagunyaze igama elisha lebhendi ethi Survivor. Abaculi bavotele "yebo", ngaleyo ndlela baqinisekisa ukuvela kweqembu elisha le-rock.
Ngo-1978, eChicago, abaculi badlala kwelinye lama-nightclub edolobha. Ngemuva komdlalo wokuqala, abaculi bavakashela iMidwest kanye nogu lwePacific isikhathi esingangonyaka.
Ngawo lowo nyaka, abaculi bakwazi ukuqeda inkontileka ezuzisayo ne-Scotti Bros. amarekhodi. Ngo-1980, iqembu le-rock laseMelika lakhipha i-albhamu yalo yokuqala, ethi, Survivor.
Iqoqo alizange libe yimpumelelo kuphela (ngokwezentengiselwano), kodwa futhi lavusa isithakazelo sangempela phakathi kwabalandeli be-rock.
Ukuhlonipha ukukhululwa kwerekhodi, iqembu liye lavakasha izinyanga ezingu-8. Ngemuva kohambo, abaculi baqala ukwenza i-albhamu entsha, kodwa ngohlu olushintshiwe.
UDenis Keith noGary Smith balishiya leli qembu. Iqiniso liwukuthi abaculi, ngaphezu kokusebenza eqenjini le-Survivor, babe namanye amaphrojekthi anenzuzo.
Ngokushesha ithimba le-rock lagcwaliswa ngo-Mark Drabi, owahlala phansi ezigubhini, noStephen Ellis, owayephethe ibhesi. Ukwakhiwa okubuyekeziwe kwethule ukuhlanganiswa kwe-Premonition.
Kubalandeli abaningi, leli rekhodi seliphenduke "impumelelo" yangempela. Abagxeki bomculo babheka i-albhamu njengomunye wemisebenzi engcono kakhulu yeqembu le-rock, kodwa "impumelelo" yangempela yenzeke kamuva nje.
I-Soundtrack Eye of the Tiger yefilimu ethi "Rocky 3"
USylvester Stallone, owayesanda kulingisa ku-movie ethi "Rocky 3", wayefuna ithrekhi efanelekayo yefilimu. Ngenhlanhla, umlingisi waseMelika wezwa ingoma ethi Survivor Poor Man's Son.
Wahlangana nabacula yedwa beqembu. Ngokushesha leli qembu lakhipha ingoma yefilimu ethi Eye of the Tiger.

Ekuqaleni kwawo-1980, leli qembu lakhipha i-albhamu ehlanganisiwe enegama elifanayo, eyafinyelela ku-#2 eshadini le-Billboard. I-albhamu ibe yiplatinamu.
Iqembu laqala ukukhipha ama-albhamu e-studio. Maphakathi nawo-1980s, i-discography yeqembu yagcwaliswa kabusha ngama-albhamu athi Caught in the Game kanye nezingoma ezibalulekile. Omunye umculi ubevele esebenza ekuqopheni iqoqo lokugcina.
U-Dave Bickler wayenezinkinga zempilo ezithinte kabi isimo sezwi lakhe. Esikhundleni sakhe kwathathwa uJim Jamison. Phakathi nalesi sikhathi, abaculi bakhiphe enye ingoma yefilimu ethi "Rocky 4".
Ngo-1986, abaculi bethula i-albhamu ethi When Seconds Count kubalandeli, eyahamba ngegolide. Eminyakeni emibili kamuva, i-discography yeqembu yaphinde yagcwaliswa nge-albhamu ethi Too Hot To Sleep.
Ukuhlanganiswa akuzange kuphumelele (ngokwezentengiso). Isici esihlukile seqoqo kwaba ukugqama kwe-hard rock. Naphezu kokuthi le albhamu ayizange ibanike imali eningi abaculi, abahlaziyi bomculo bayibheka njengamaqoqo ahamba phambili.
Kuze kube ngu-2000, iqembu le-rock alizange lizibonise nganoma iyiphi indlela. Umculi ngamunye waphishekela umsebenzi wakhe yedwa. Abafana bakhipha ama-albhamu abodwa futhi bavakashela.
Izinguquko eqenjini
Ngenxa yalokho, leli qembu laqala ukuhlupheka ngenxa yokulahlekelwa abadlali abacula yedwa. UJim Peterik noFrank Sullivan babe ngabokuqala ukushiya iqembu. UJim Jamison uqhubekile nokucula nabaculi abehlukene ngaphansi kwegama elithi Jimi Jamison's Survivor.
Ngo-2006, abaculi bethule i-albhamu entsha. Ukuhlanganiswa kugcwaliswe ngazo zombili izingoma ezintsha nezindala eziphinde zakhishwa ku-bootleg ye-Fire Makes Steel.
Kusukela ngo-1999, leli qembu liye lavakashela imigqa ehlukahlukene, labamba iqhaza emibukisweni ehlukahlukene futhi laqopha i-soundtrack yefilimu kaSylvester Stallone ethi "Racer" (ithrekhi ayizange izwakale efilimini).
Osindile angaphinde azwakale emdlalweni wamahlaya i-Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy.
Ibhendi yabasindile namuhla
Imisebenzi yabaculi beqembu le-Survivor ihloselwe umsebenzi wedwa. Abalandeli bangakwazi ukuzwa abacula ngabodwana bebhendi ye-rock njengabaculi abazimele. Abaculi bayaqhubeka nokucula, ukuya emikhosini yomculo nemibukiso ethokozisayo.
