Some of the Worst NWOBHM Singles Hey, They Can't All Be Good). LET'S TALK METAL #150

As much as I love NWOBHM, once in a great while it's worth remembering that not every band from that era was oozing with talent and not every independently released single is an overlooked gem. Some of these bands got passed over for good reason, and some of these records were forgotten because they just weren't that good. Let's take a look- and a listen- to three NWOBHM singles that, in my opinion, just don't make the cut. DISCLAIMER- Yes, 'bad' is subjective. I know some folks really like (at least two of) these singles, and that's cool. There are plenty of records I like that many others consider awful.
