NWOBHM was a breath of fresh air in '79/80. So many great albums coming out within months even if a lot of the bands didn't last. Friday Rock Show!!! Didn't like Punk or late 70s new wave but I don't think its influence on NWOBHM can be denied. The HM songs were shorter with an absence of long individual instrument solos on studio albums and the lyrics had a harder edge than the earlier 70s hard rock

Saxon were one of the big three NWOBHM bands that broke into the mainstream, along with Iron Maiden and Def Leppard, and just like the latter they went hair metal from 1985 until the remainder of the decade. Their first six albums (released between 1979-1984) are absolute classics and highly regarded. Saxon are a true embodiment of everything that was great about NWOBHM, and their newer records also kick ass. If there is a well known but underrated NWOBHM band then it is Raven. They pioneered speed metal along with Motorhead, Anvil and Accept, and had several consecutive classic albums, but some people are reluctant to give those records a spin for some reason, and I never understood why.

Yes, a lot of british metal bands had very influential albums released in the early eighties, Priest with British Steel, Black Sabbath with Heaven and Hell and Motorhead with Bomber, albums that definitely influenced the NWOBHM but those bands had been around for years when the NWOBHM started. :)

…and if you include Lemmy, he had a career in Hawkwind years before and even before that, played guitar with the Rockin’ Vicars and had a UK chart hit covering a Kinks song - in 1966. Hardly a new guy. Lemmy is the father of the kids who created NWOBHM. Those Bronze era albums are part of the era for sure the same way the Gillan and early Whitesnake albums are.

YES MAN!! Finally someone nailed it on a video! Most common mistakes are rules 3,8 and 9. Only thing I would disagree with is 'hate punk' because nwobhm was also very much influenced by the punk wave that was just coming to an end, bands intergrated faster playing to their songs like many punk bands had done before them. And of course my favorite rule: You're an Angel Witch!

Referring to a New Wave of British Heavy Metal means there was a first wave. That’s where I put the Unholy Trinity of Sabbath, Zeppelin, and Purple. The question becomes where to put Motörhead and Priest? Are they at the end of the first wave or are they a transition point?

Yeah I guess we can say that they are of a second wave, mid 70's bands. But it wasn't like metal went away between them. There were just a whole lot more heavy bands that came around in the mid 70s.
