VARIOUS ARTISTS - NWOBHM - WHEELS OF STEEL - Eksplozja Nowej Fali Brytyjskiego Heavy Metalu - MARTIN POPOFFprice: 45,00 PLN / 11,25 EUR
Oh, that heroic New Wave Of British Heavy Metal, full of glory and madness! It was 1979, when the representatives of this newly born, crazy genre of heavy metal were shovelling earth onto the coffin of punk music, while at the same time mourning the stars of early hard rock who were fading into the shadows - or rather experiencing their decline - that is, Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, Black Sabbath and Uriah Heep. In the book "Wheels of Steel – Eksplozja Nowej Fali Brytyjskiego Heavy Metalu" Martin Popoff presents the whole long period of preparation for the outbreak of this metal mania, from the early 70s up to the first years of the reign of this phenomenon, that is, 1979 and 1980. Using the narrative typical of his writing, rich in detailed, chronological entries forming a framework for the whole story, Popoff considers all the reasons why the NWOBHM had to happen, and then presents a complete list of all the singles, albums, concerts and conceptual trends of those two extraordinary years - a period that was essentially one big welcome party for the arrival of heavy metal. Join Martin and many of his good old heavy metal buddies and immerse yourself in reading their shared stories about the birth of this particular genre, its roguish, rebellious growing up and its beginnings. Heavy metal was never the same again after that. The reasons for this state of affairs, presented thoroughly and meticulously, you will, of course, read about in this book. 296 pages, illustrated, paperback. -

VARIOUS ARTISTS - NWOBHM - VARIOUS ARTISTS - Lead Weight - Neat Records 1981 Compilation - UK Krescendo Remastered Editionprice: 50,00 PLN / 12,50 EUR
A brilliant and genuinely legendary/cult metal compilation from 1981, released by the then fledgling label Neat Records - probably the most important and best company connected with the New Wave Of British Heavy Metal movement. It promoted new, then unknown bands (several of which, such as Venom, Raven or Blitzkrieg, are active to this day) and contained mainly tracks unpublished on records, or their other versions. It is an album that accompanied me at the beginning of my metal adventure in my teenage years and I consider it a genuinely perfect work! I assure you that every fan of heavy classic sounds of the NWOBHM kind will love every minute of this album! A remastered 2013 edition. A must! -
VARIOUS ARTISTS - NWOBHM - VARIOUS ARTISTS - NWOBHM (New Wave Of British Heavy Metal) At The BBC - 'Friday Rock Show' Volume 1 - 1980-1982 (2LP) - UK Maida Vale / Verne Press - LISTEN - VERY RAREprice: 170,00 PLN / 42,50 EUR
In the early 80s the radio programme "Friday Rock Show" (hosted by the legendary DJ Tommy Vance) played a significant role in cementing the popularity of the New Wave Of British Heavy Metal movement. All the tracks were recorded live (with minor overdubs) on excellent equipment and with the best British producers, at the BBC Maida Vale studios in London. This fantastic, 115-minute double compilation (like the also double Volume 2) contains complete, generally 13-18-minute recording sessions (in excellent sound quality) by seven classic bands of the movement, recorded in the period from October 1979 to April 1980. Alongside renowned names such as Def Leppard, Saxon, Angel Witch or Tygers Of Pan Tang, we have here such sensations as Samson (with a very young Bruce Dickinson), the brilliant Trespass (probably the most underrated band of the whole genre) and the melodic but claw-showing Praying Mantis. This beautifully produced (in a stunning cover by Rodney Matthews - the one behind Nazareth's "No Mean City" or Diamond Head's "Borrowed Time") double album contains only music (complete recordings - to the second) - without any announcements! Traditional heavy rock/early metal cannot be better! The sound and pressing quality is excellent! It is an absolute MUST! NEW, SEALED. -

VARIOUS ARTISTS - NWOBHM - VARIOUS ARTISTS (NWOBHM) - Winds Of Time - New Wave Of British Heavy Metal 1979-1985 (3CD BOX) - UK Hear No Evil Editionprice: 130,00 PLN / 32,50 EUR
A very attractively produced, three-disc box set from Hear No Evil devoted to the New Wave Of British Heavy Metal (NWOBHM) movement in 1979-1985. Plenty of classics and unknown bands, e.g. with a single single to their name. All in all quite a lot of unknown recordings! Perhaps it is not a completely exhaustive release (licensing problems and so on) but flawless as a 'good start'. All the discs are placed in cardboard sleeves and dropped into a rigid, cardboard box. In addition there is a booklet with descriptions, record covers and so on. Recommended! -

A fantastic compilation containing tracks by bands from the New Wave Of British Heavy Metal movement, which appeared in 1982 only on a cassette released by Neat Records (and then in Italy - as "All Hell Let Loose", and years later on a Japanese CD as "60 Minute Plus"). It promoted new, then unknown bands (several of which, such as Venom and Raven, achieved considerable popularity, while the guitarist Janick Gers of White Spirit plays in Iron Maiden...) and contained mainly tracks unpublished on records, or their other versions. A remastered 2013 edition. A must! -
