The Metal Project: Heavy Metal Storm

 About two years ago I set out to see how many Heavy Metal songs I could find on Youtube which had the word "Metal" in the title. I honestly was not expecting to find so many.

  There's no underlying theme to today's selection, just a grab-bag of metallic goodies. I hope you find something you like.

 Wulfgar - Midgardian Metal (Sweden 2010)

(Bombastic Viking Death Metal - pretty catchy)
Honour to: MisterMetal95

Stygian Shore - Stygian Metal (USA 1984) 

(Unfussy US Metal that was never going to get on MTV but that's not necessarily a bad thing.)
)
 Honour to: crgreyf

Harbinger -Die For Metal, Live For Death (USA 2009)

(Enthusiastic Speed Metal with hints of NWOBHM - 
Sounds like they were quite young when they did this.)
Honour to: audiostimulation

Not Fragile - Made Of Metal (Germany 1985 Demo)

(No frills but has a driving edge to it.
Breaks down in the middle so the rythymn section can have a go in the spotlight then layers on the guitars before going back into it. 
I like that sort of thing)
Honour to: SlauterXstroyes

Arcano XV - Heavy Metal Storm (Paraguay 2012)

(Very 80s sounding fist-in-the-air Heavy Metal) 
Honour to: theheadbanger09

Vhaldemar - Metal And Roll (Spain 2013)

(Power Metal that isn't too polished around the edges)
)
Honour to: VhaldemarOficial

Aura Noir - Black Metal Jaw (Norway 2004)

(Not as harsh and abrasive as I was expecting - got a sort of punky groove to it. Not bad)
Honour to: Korruptor

Titan - La Loi Du Metal (France 1986)

(A crunchy French take on the NWOBHM sound and a vocalist who just may be Udo Dirkschneider's Gallic cousin.)
Honour to: DisciplineOfSteel


That's all folks.
See you next time.
