Adding Marc Portman (guitar) and Roddy Landolt (bass), they combined 70s symphonic rock with elements of bands such as Deep Purple, Krokus, Emerson, Lake And Palmer and Angelwitch. In 1979, they released two singles, “Rockin’ Tonight” and “She’s In Love”. A year later, they released their first album, “First Bite”. Bitch was the Support band for the Krokus 1980 Metal-Rendezvous Tour (in Switzerland). In 1982 they released their second and final album, “Some Like It Hard”, before disbanding later that year.
