Known simply as Triumph, this rock trio\u2014which includes drummer\/singer Gil Moore, singer\/guitarist Rik Emmett, and bassist\/keyboardist Mike&nbsp;Levine\u2014dominated North American radio and MTV in the \u201880s with hits such as \u201cLay It On the Line,\u201d \u201cHold On,\u201d and \u201cMagic Power.\u201d Despite being one of the world\u2019s biggest rock bands, the group split at the height of their fame and seemingly disappeared without explanation to their fans or media. Set to a mesmerizing visual backdrop of spandex, 80s hair, and explosive pyro, \u201cTRIUMPH: ROCK &amp; ROLL MACHINE\u201d delivers a deeper story about fame and the human condition while chronicling the band\u2019s reunion for what might be the very last time they play music together.
