The Metal Project : 1983

  The Metal Project is an ongoing mission to track down every song on Youtube with "Metal" in the title.  

     By 1983 Metal was starting to splinter into different factions. The success of Quiet Riot had made the record labels cast an interested eye on LA's burgeoning scene and the pages of Kerrang would start seeing an invasion of flashy, anthemic Americans with really big hair. Meanwhile a generation of disgruntled youngsters were experimenting with a fast-paced, ferocious blend of Punk and Metal called "Thrash".  And of course there were always those who held true to the ways of Judas Priest and the NWOBHM.

 Despite this, I haven't managed to find as many songs as I was expecting so this post is something of a short one. 

 Air Borne - Temple Of Metal (Sweden)

Honour to: SlauterXstroyes

Scarlet -She Tastes Like Metal (USA)

Honour to; SlauterXstroyes

Slayer- Metal Storm/Face The Slayer (USA)

Yes, I'm cheating as Metal Storm is more of an intro. 
Who's blog is this? Mine. 
Who gets to make the rules? Me. 
Aren't you glad we cleared that up?

Steele - Heavy Metal (Demo - USA)

V8 - Hiena De Metal (Argentina)


That's it for now. See you next time for more of the same.
