The Metal Project: Metal From 1987

 The Metal Project is an ongoing mission to trawl through the depths of Youtube and find every Metal song with "Metal" in the title. Even the crap ones.

 Welcome back my friends to the quest that may never end. Today's post comes from a period when Metal was in a state of flux bordering on Civil War. In the red corner, the radio-friendly Pop "metal" sounds of Bon Jovi and Def Leppard, Europe and Heart. In the blue corner, the snarling,  angry Thrash of Metallica, Anthrax, Slayer and their rapid-riffing kinsmen. Meanwhile,  off to one side, wondering what the hell happened, the Trad sounds personified by Maiden and Priest.
  As you'd expect, most of these lean towards the Traditional corner of the envelope.
 Let's get started, shall we?
