Force It catches UFO mid-transformation, Michael Schenker's second album with the band cementing his melodic precision as their secret weapon. Producer Leo Lyons captured a heavier, more confident sound at AIR Studios, with Shoot Shoot and the sprawling Mother Mary showcasing the German guitarist's ability to balance technical flash with emotional heft.

Phil Mogg's bruised vocals anchor tracks like Let It Roll and High Flyer, while the rhythm section locks into grooves that would influence the New Wave of British Heavy Metal. A transitional record that pointed towards their commercial peak.
