Angel Witch

And then, like, we were asking around for drummers, and we knew a guy in HMV, Jamie, who actually, Jamie DJs here at Helge's.

He now plays guitar on Angel Witch.

Oh, wow.

Yeah,

Oh, as in

Rise Above and I want to say Angel Witch.

Yes.

Yeah, he's in Angel Witch.

And he was at Rise Above.

Bad Omen record.

I was suggesting you were pestering him, but I wouldn't.

No, but I have seen it.

Of course, that was the Barnsley teetotaler Saxon, who also made a splash in 1980 with the classic Wheels of Steel record.

Also released that year was the self-titled debut by Angel Witch, a cult classic that really should be owned by all self-respecting metalheads.

As a volcano, we're about to be seen, crashes to the ground No one can hold this sameness, panic falls in front of us Apocalypse is happening and nobody stands a chance.

It's falling, it's falling, the final bell is tolling.

I don't know if that even deserved a remastering.

Angel Witch did the same thing with their first album, Angel Witch.

And I have that as well on an audio file, AAA guaranteed audio file print.

And do I play it as much as I play the old one? No, not really.

Maybe it's me wishful thinking that I was white and not black.

He also says, and it seems every new wave of British heavy metal band peaked with their first album, Diamondhead, Angel Witch, Witchfinder General, etc.

Iron Maiden.

Yeah, and a lot of punk bands like that as well.

As far as bands whose debut albums have never been topped, my choices would be L.A. Gunn's debut, Ace Frehley's 78 solo album, The Doors' debut.

I love all their albums, but the first one is hard to beat.

uh heart dreamboat annie the allman brothers self-title angel witch's debut and mayhem uh dave mysterious dom sanchez however the you say that go burn a church um Jean-Paul says, I love how Ralph said that he discovered stuff that was not on the radio or MTV, even in the mainstream rock press back in the early 80s.

I would have missed a lot of great stuff if I didn't do the same thing, especially with bands and albums going back to the 60s and 70s.

And so we've been trickling those out every once in a while.

The one that we did most recently was we did Angel Witch by Angel Witch.

We've done Take These Chains by Judas Priest.

We did Big City Nights by Scorpions.
