History edit

The World on Edge members worked together in (West) Germany with Christian Schudde, their co-producer. Their self-titled debut album World on Edge was released in 1991.[1] It produced six singles which reached the Top 40 (based on a combination of charts from 'RPM 100 Singles' and 'The Record'); their best-known hit was "Still Beating".

In 1992 the band was nominated as "most promising group of the year" at the Juno Awards, but did not win.[2][3]

The 1993 follow-up album Against All Gods received little air play and the video to the lead single "Who Shot Harry" was not aired by muchmusic. Album sales were weak; the group disbanded soon after.

They toured with Roxette on the Canadian leg of that group's 1992 Canadian tour.
