After the Fire :

After the Fire (or ATF) is a British rock band that went from playing
progressive rock to new wave over the twelve years it was together, while
having only one hit in the United States ("Der Kommissar") and one hit in
the UK ("One Rule for You").
Early career Keyboard player Peter Banks originally formed the band in the
early 1970s in London, England. After The Fire then went through several
personnel changes before settling on Banks, guitarist and vocalist Andy
Piercy, bassist Nick Battle, and drummer Ivor Twidell. This lineup enjoyed
local success in London, and released an album, Signs of Change, in 1978,
on their own label. Having become a highly-priced collectors' item, it was
reissued on CD in 2004 with several bonus tracks. At this time, the band's
sound was similar to bands like Genesis and Yes.
Success beckons After Battle left, Piercy switched to bass, and John
Russell joined
