NWOBHM: A Timeline (Iron Maiden, Saxon, Def Leppard, Diamond Head, Venom, Raven & Angel Witch)

Iron Maiden, Saxon, Def Leppard, Venom, Raven, Tank, Angel Witch were all part of a wave called the New Wave of British Heavy Metal or NWOBHM. It was a wave of heavy metal bands that roughly were active between 1979-1985. Bands like Iron Maiden, Saxon, Def Leppard, Angel Witch, Samson, Tank, Tygers of Pan Tang, Raven and Venom were some of the better known bands from the wave and in todays video I've compiled a timeline of important events, albums, gigs and lineup changes that were of importance to the wave. So this is the history of the 'New Wave of British Heavy Metal' or a timeline of it. Enjoy! Correction: I forgot about Praying Mantis, simply because I used the metal-archives as source for a lot of these bands. They don't count Praying Mantis as a metal band so that's why I forgot to include them here, but they should of course have been a part of this video. There were of course other bands that I could have included in this video but the scene was huge and a video is limited so I hope everyone can understand that. I'll try to do better next time. #nwobhm #heavymetal #ironmaiden NWOBHM - A TIMELINE. Like, Share and Subscribe!
