Harder ... Faster is the eighth studio album by Canadian rock band April Wine, released in 1979. It was recorded at Le Studio, Morin-Heights, Quebec. The album is certified gold both in the United States and Canada by the Canadian Recording Industry Association and RIAA.³⁴ The album spawned the moderately successful hits "I Like to Rock" and "Say Hello". A cover of King Crimson's 1969 hit song, "21st Century Schizoid Man", is also on the album.

The track "I Like to Rock" is amongst one of the band's most popular songs and contains the riffs from Beatles' "Day Tripper" (1965) and The Rolling Stone's "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction" (1965).⁵ The popularity of these songs helped keep the album on Billboard’s 200 Album charts for a span of 40 weeks.³
