In 1981, Axe changed labels and recorded "Offering" for ATCO

After 19 months of touring with the likes of Ozzy Osbourne,
Judas Priest, the Scorpions, ZZ Top and Motley Crue, it was time
to record the forth Axe album - "Nemesis." Continued
success meant more touring and Barth was seriously injured in a
car crash. This accident led to Barth disbanding Axe and
later joining Blackfoot. After his stint with Blackfoot,
Barth took his talents to Australia to join Angry Anderson (Rose
Tattoo), hitting the Top 5 on the Australian charts. |

In recent years, Axe has reformed with original member Bob
Harris and adding new members, Brad Banhagel, David Landes,
Drummer, Bass, and Keyboard. |
