Fight To Survive was re-released in 2014 by Rock Candy Records in a special deluxe collector's edition with fully remastered sound shaped from 24 bit digital technology. However, these were recorded during the Pride tour by the band's classic lineup, quite some time after this album.

Some earlier remastered versions of the album feature several live bonus tracks. Track listing Īll songs written by Mike Tramp & Vito Bratta, except where noted. Finished, and back in New York, they choose to erase this because he thinks that is sounds too much like 1983, and much has happened since then. They returned in 1986 to same studio to record Pride.

When they were finished with drums, bass and later vocals the time was out, so they couldn't do anything and have to keep that guitar material. He played the guitar as a backing track to guide the D'Angelo and Spitz, respectively. He explained that they started the recording sessions of the "Fight to survive" album with the drums and bass. In an interview in the book "Nothin' But a Good Time" with guitarist Vito Bratta, he told that people said that he improved much between "Fight to survive" and "Pride". "El Salvador" was released as a promo single. The track was re-recorded and updated for the band's 1991 release, Mane Attraction, and featured a new music video. The song "Broken Heart" was released as the band's debut single and featured a music video with drummer Greg D'Angelo and bassist Dave Spitz appearing in the video and it was recorded on stage at L'Amour in Brooklyn. Tramp is very proud of songs like "All the Fallen Men" and "Kid of 1,000 Faces," which he considers among the darkest songs they have written. The album actually broke in Europe before it did in the USA thanks to magazines covering the band. Tramp has noted that once White Lion was dropped by Elektra Records, their manager managed to get the right to license the album and release it in Japan. Philadelphia-based Grand Slamm Records bought the album from Elektra and released it in America the following year. The band was signed to Elektra Records, which shelved the album with no intention of publishing it in the USA. The album charted at number 151 on the Billboard 200. Fight to Survive is the debut album by the American-Danish glam metal band White Lion, released by Victor Records in Japan in 1985.
