Giant is an American melodic hard rock band that was formed in 1987. The band consisted of founding members Dann Huff (lead vocals & guitar) and Alan Pasqua (keyboard), and had Dann's brother David Huff on drums and Mike Brignardello on bass. The Huff brothers were part of the founding members of the christian rock band White Heart.The band scored one major hit, the 1990 power ballad "I'll See You In My Dreams," written by Alan Pasqua and Mark Spiro.
Giant/s debut album, Last of the Runaways is amongst the best produced albums of the 80/s hard rock. Production is just stellar, every note is in the right place, sometimes it sounds like you are listening to some session musicians performs their magic in the studio with some top gun producer, but despite the shiny production work, I just couldn/t get into Giant. There is a lot of things I should like about them, like voice of the Dan Huff, which is really pleasant, nice songwriting, lots of hooks etc., but somehow I feel like there is something missing here. Songs just don/t have that edge that would made them interesting for a longer period of time. Sure, "I/ll See You In My Dreams" is a great powerballad, "Innocent Days" is a very good rocker and "Hold Back the Night" has a nice chorus, but others are little bit too long and too safe. All of the songs from the album can safely be included in the playlist of some late night program on the adult oriented radio, since they are inoffensive, light and smooth. I/m sure this album would be at the top of the list of every AOR fan, but I think that it/s lacking of sharpness wouldn/t do him good with fans of harder rock or metal.
Giant disbanded in the early 90s after recording two albums, but resurfaced in 2000 minus Alan Pasqua and released the album III in late 2001.
