Right Between the Eyes is a 1989 album by American rock band Icon. It marked a number of changes for the band, including a new record label, Megaforce Worldwide/ Atlantic Records and new guitarist Drew Bollmann, who toured with Icon from 1989 - 1991. The album was produced by guitarist Dan Wexler, Dan Zelisko, and radio personality Eddie Trunk (credited as "Ed Trunk"), who worked at Megaforce at the time. The album featured a guest vocal appearance by Alice Cooper on the tracks "Two for the Road" and "Holy Man's War". For this album Icon toured with, among others, Ace Frehley of Kiss fame and Electric Angels in the US, and with King's X in the U.K. For the last part of the tour, David Lauser, of Sammy Hagar's band, replaced drummer Dixon. The video for the first single "Taking My Breath Away" was played on MTV's Headbangers Ball in Europe and in the US.
