In this video we take a look at Diamond Head's NWOBHM masterpiece Lightning to the Nations, and why it wasn't the success it should have been at the time.
DIAMOND HEAD: LIGHTNING TO THE NATIONS
NEW AGE MARTYR – FROM UNIT ONE STUDIOS
We play three shows with One Machine (featuring Steve Smyth formerly of Testament/Nevermore/Forbidden) and Endeavour this week. The run of dates kicks off with us returning to The Music Room in Ipswich, followed by The Gryphon in Bristol and finishing in Glasgow at Audio.
OUR NEW ALBUM IS OUT NOW!
The tracks are reworkings of 8 songs originally found on the After Extinction album and the subsequent Extinction After EP, completely re-recorded for a full album release. After Extinction was a landmark release for the band, as it was our first album to break into the mainstream music charts, peaking at number 85 on the Official UK Album Downloads Chart. We decided to release these songs in their definitive format as a brand new album, Extinctions End.
