fWotD Episode 2822: New wave of British heavy metal Welcome to Featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia’s finest articles.The featured article for Saturday, 25 January 2025 is New wave of British heavy metal.The new wave of British heavy metal (commonly abbreviated as NWOBHM) was a nationwide musical movement that started in England in the mid-1970s and achieved international attention by the early 1980s. Editor Alan Lewis coined the term for an article by Geoff Barton in a May 1979 issue of the British music newspaper Sounds to describe the emergence of new heavy metal bands in the mid to late 1970s, during the period of punk rock's decline and the dominance of new wave music.Although encompassing diverse styles inherited from rock music, the music of the NWOBHM is best remembered for drawing on the heavy metal of the 1970s and infusing it with the intensity of punk rock to produce fast and aggressive songs. The DIY attitude of the new metal bands led to the spread of raw-sounding, self-produced recordings and a proliferation of independent record labels. Song lyrics were usually about escapist themes, such as mythology, fantasy, horror and the rock 'n' roll lifestyle.The NWOBHM began as an underground phenomenon growing in parallel to punk and largely ignored by the media. It was only through the promotion of rock DJ Neal Kay and Sounds' campaigning that it reached the public consciousness and gained radio airplay, recognition and success in the UK. The movement involved mostly young, white, male and working-class musicians and fans, who suffered the hardships brought on by rising unemployment for years after the 1973–75 recession. As a reaction to their bleak reality, they created a community separate from mainstream society to enjoy each other's company and their favourite loud music. The NWOBHM was heavily criticised for the excessive hype generated by local media in favour of mostly talentless musicians. Nonetheless, it generated a renewal in the genre of heavy metal music and furthered the progress of the heavy metal subculture, whose updated behavioural and visual codes were quickly adopted by metal fans worldwide after the spread of the music to continental Europe, North America and Japan.By some estimates, the movement spawned as many as a thousand heavy metal bands, but only a few survived the advent of MTV and the rise of the more commercial glam metal in the second half of the 1980s. Among them, Iron Maiden and Def Leppard became superstars, while Motörhead and Saxon also had considerable success. Other groups, such as Diamond Head, Venom and Raven, while reaching limited chart success, never achieved popularity of the above-mentioned bands, but were a major influence on the successful extreme metal subgenres of the mid/late 1980s and 1990s. Many bands from the NWOBHM reunited in the 2000s and remained active through live performances and new studio albums.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 01:01 UTC on Saturday, 25 January 2025.For the full current version of the article, see New wave of British heavy metal on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm long-form Danielle.

Two brothers both went through the apprenticeship program with John Archibald in the 90s. Darin Swartz was instantly hooked and opened up Swartz Dental Arts in the basement of a dental office after graduation. Followed by his younger brother, Mike Swartz graduated and opened his own lab. You would think they would partner up, but for 15 years they ran separate labs in the same space. After seeing technology coming into the industry, it was time to partner up and create Diamondhead Dental Lab (https://diamondheadlab.com/).

Phil Manzanera has had a remarkable life. Best known as the lead guitarist in Roxy Music, he's also worked as a writer, producer and/or performer with the likes of David Gilmour, Steve Winwood, Nico, Brian Eno and many more. He's just released a mammoth box set of his solo work which dates back to 1975's “Diamond Head” album. The box, entitled “50 Years Of Music”, comes at a time of reflection for Manzanera. He recently released a memoir, in which he detailed his childhood in Cuba at the time of Batista's overthrow in 1959, and his suspicion that his Dad, who ostensibly worked for BOAC airlines, was actually a spy. Manzanera lived in different parts of the Americas as a child and later went to boarding school at Dulwich College in London. Phil went on to explore his Latin American roots in his music, and another bizarre twist occurred in 2011 when Kanye West and Jay-Z sampled a guitar part from his 1978 “K-Scope” album for their track “No Church In The Wild”. Manzanera has claimed this one sample earned him more money than his entire time in Roxy Music. Anyway, I was sure Phil would have great stories to share and I hope you enjoy our conversation. Visit Manzanera.com for more information on the box set.Instagram: @sendingsignalspodcast

Our extensive experience, combined with 18 years of podcasting, makes us your go-to experts for everything in Hawaii. If you're ready to take the plunge, check us out at hawaii-aloha.com or give us a call at 1-800-843-8771 for Hawaii Travel Hacks. You'll be glad you did! Why Choose Hawaii Aloha Travel? Unlike some influencers or celebrities who might not know the first thing about booking a Hawaii vacation, we live, breathe, and experience Hawaii every day. Our expertise is constantly updated, and our website is a treasure trove of information—think of it as your very own Hawaii encyclopedia. With our personalized service, you'll avoid the pitfalls of outdated advice and get the most current, relevant insights into what's happening on the islands. Tip 1: Avoid Overhyped Tourist Traps While it's tempting to hit all the famous spots, some of them are overrated and overcrowded. For example, Diamond Head is often touted as a must-do hike, but in reality, it's just a long climb up a bunch of stairs to a view you could easily get from a hotel rooftop. Instead, explore lesser-known trails like the Makiki Heights trails on Oahu, which offer a serene rainforest experience with far fewer crowds, even on weekends. And if you're up for a challenge, try the Koko Crater stairs, but be warned—it's a tough climb! Wasting your time climbing a bunch of statirs is not my idea of a hike!! Pass on this!! Call us and we'll tell you where there are much better alternatives to Hike and enjoy a rainforrest! Tip 2: Time Your Activities Right—Do Everything Later One of the best pieces of advice I can give for enjoying Hawaii is to avoid the early morning rush. Most travelers are jet-lagged when they arrive, waking up at 4 or 5 AM and rushing to start their day. While that might seem like a good idea, it often leads to crowded attractions and long lines. My suggestion? Do everything later. Take Pearl Harbor, for instance. Most people think they need to be there first thing in the morning. But if you go in the afternoon, you'll often find it less crowded, and tickets can be easier to come by. The same goes for Hanauma Bay. Typically packed in the morning, the parking lot starts to clear out by early afternoon. You'll enjoy a more relaxed atmosphere, and you won't feel rushed. This concept of doing things later can be applied to most activities across all the islands. For instance, instead of starting your day early on the Road to Hana, head out later in the morning. This way, you avoid the convoy of rental cars and can enjoy the drive without the stop-and-go traffic that often builds up early in the day. And when it comes to hikes, places like the Makapu'u Lighthouse Trail or the ridges around Hanauma Bay are much more pleasant to explore in the late afternoon when the sun is lower, and the temperatures are cooler. Tip 3: Smart Inter-Island Travel Travel in the morning, find less people and don't rush to check int your hotel!! Timing also plays a crucial role when it comes to inter-island flights. Many travelers make the mistake of booking midday flights, thinking they'll have time to check into their next hotel as soon as they arrive. But the reality is, midday flights are the busiest. Airports are crowded, check-in lines are long, and you'll spend a lot of time just waiting around. Instead, consider flying early in the morning or later in the afternoon. Early morning flights let you get to your next island and dive straight into an activity. You can make the most of your day without being stuck in hotel lobbies, waiting for check-in time. On the other hand, if you're not a morning person, a late afternoon flight means you can enjoy a full day on your current island before moving on. This way,

How a Hawaii Vacation Can Help You Reset Explore New Skills and Hobbies: Vacations are a great time to explore activities you've never tried before. Here are some specific activities you can try while in Hawaii: Hiking: Hawaii offers numerous hiking opportunities beyond the usual tourist trails like Diamond Head. Explore hidden gems like Makiki Trails, Lulumahu Falls, or Likeke Falls. These hikes allow you to immerse yourself in Hawaii's rainforests and discover its natural beauty. Surfing and Paddleboarding: Embrace the Hawaiian waters by learning to surf or paddleboard. Even if you're a beginner, these activities are great ways to connect with the ocean and enjoy the thrill of trying something new. Start hiking in Hawaii and start your own journey when you get home Cultural Experiences: Many Hawaiian hotels offer cultural experiences that can deepen your connection to the islands. Consider trying:Lei-Making: Available at most resort hotels, lei-making connects you to Hawaiian traditions. Some guests even return yearly to add to their kukui nut leis, creating a beautiful, ongoing project.Ukulele Lessons: Learn to play the ukulele (pronounced "oo-koo-leh-leh") and take home a new skill that keeps the Hawaiian spirit alive long after your vacation.Haka and Chanting: While not a skill in the conventional sense, learning a Hawaiian chant like the haka can provide insight into Hawaiian culture and traditions.Hula Dancing: Hula is a traditional Hawaiian dance that tells stories through movement and expression. Originally performed by men, hula is now enjoyed by everyone. Learning hula not only connects you to Hawaiian culture but also offers a fun and active way to engage with the islands. Whether you're a complete beginner or just curious, hula lessons can be a fantastic way to embrace the spirit of aloha.Many of these cultural lessons and teachings are included as part of your resort fee or stay, making it easy to immerse yourself in Hawaiian traditions without additional costs. Hotels often bring in local experts, including elders and cultural practitioners, to provide authentic experiences that honor Hawaii's heritage. Challenge Your Comfort Zone: Hawaii offers unique opportunities to step out of your comfort zone: Try New Foods: Food is a big part of the Hawaiian experience, and it's an excellent way to step outside your comfort zone. For instance, poke, a traditional Hawaiian dish made of raw fish, might seem intimidating if you're not used to raw foods. However, it's a delicious and refreshing way to taste local flavors. As someone who was once hesitant about raw textures, I can tell you that trying poke for the first time was a game-changer for me. Expand Your Palate: Hawaii's diverse food scene offers everything from traditional Hawaiian dishes to Asian-inspired fusion cuisine. Step out of your usual food habits by tasting something new—whether it's laulau, loco moco, or shave ice,

This week heed the call of the sumo wrestling, battle-axe-wielding, baby seal-faced man! All hail Johnny the Mighty Tior!!! Yep, it's another installment of our ongoing series called “Grave Mistakes: They Shoulda Been Huge!!!”. We're talking about a seminal New Wave Of “Not So” British Heavy band turned Power Metal trendsetters: RIOT! Infamous as much for horrible album cover visuals and weird heavy metal mascot, Riot is a true heavy metal tour de force that is still kicking ass in 2024. We focus our listening on the first half of their career from their start in 1977 until their transition to pure power metal in 1990. They were always slightly ahead of the curve and trends, but never achieved the success of many of their peers or bands they influenced. We think RIOT shoulda been huge!!!What is it that we do here at InObscuria? Well, we exhume obscure Rock n' Punk n' Metal in one of 3 categories: the Lost, the Forgotten, or the Should Have Beens. This episode covers a band clearly in the Lost category for most and forgotten for others. As always, we hope that we turn you on to something new. You can check out the documentary we referenced several times during the show here: three-part documentary: Riot – Fight or Fall, available here on Youtube Songs this week include:Riot – “Warrior” from Rock City (1977)Riot – “Road Racin'” from Narita (1979)Riot – “Don't Hold Back” from Fire Down Under (1981)Riot – “Loanshark” from Restless Breed (1982)Riot - “Born In America” from Born In America (1983)Riot – “Thundersteel” from Thundersteel (1988)Riot – “Little Miss Death” from The Privilege Of Power (1990)Visit us: https://inobscuria.com/https://www.facebook.com/InObscuriahttps://twitter.com/inobscuriahttps://www.instagram.com/inobscuria/Buy cool stuff with our logo on it!: https://www.redbubble.com/people/InObscuria?asc=uCheck out Robert's amazing fire sculptures and metal workings here: http://flamewerx.com/If you'd like to check out Kevin's band THE SWEAR, take a listen on all streaming services or pick up a digital copy of their latest release here: https://theswear.bandcamp.com/If you want to hear Robert and Kevin's band from the late 90s – early 00s BIG JACK PNEUMATIC, check it out here: https://bigjackpnuematic.bandcamp.com/

This week we conclude our two-part recap of Night Demon's historic performance at the Hell's Heroes Festival in Houston, Texas, in March 2024.  That night the band performed a special surprise covers set, including one song they had never performed live before and several others that are aired only rarely.  This episode features complete audio of the show, interspersed with commentary from the band members and fans.  Among other details, you will hear why the band chose to play a special set, how Armand's performance was hindered by technical issues, which songs were most difficult and most fun for Brian to play, when Rocky made an appearance, how audience members reacted to the gig, how in a very real way Night Demon saved the day, and why this was Jarvis's favorite performance at Hell's Heroes to date.Become a subscriber today at nightdemon.net/subscriber.

1976, när Brian Tatler var 16, bildade han heavy metal-bandet Diamond Head hemma i Stourbridge. De förutspåddes en lika ljus framtid som de andra grupperna i The New Wave of British Heavy Metal. Diamond Head tryckte upp sitt debutalbum själva och sålde det via en annons i musiktidningen Sounds. När de lyckades sälja ett ex till någon i Los Angeles blev de överlyckliga. "We thought: WE'VE GOT A FAN IN AMERICA! But we didn't think that he had a very American sounding name: Lars Ulrich."Den unge Lars Ulrich blev så förtjust i Diamond Head att han reste till England för att se dem live. Brian Tatler lät honom bo på en madrass i sitt pojkrum. Sedan åkte Lars hem till Kalifornien och bildade Metallica. För Diamond Head gick det inte lika bra. Sångaren Sean Harris krävde att hans mamma och hennes pojkvän skulle vara bandets managers, trots att de inte visste mycket om musikbranschen. De missade många chanser på grund av det men de första två albumen "Lightning to the nations" och "Borrowed time" anses vara klassiker – och den monumentala "Am I evil" kom på 26:e plats när Rolling Stone listade de 100 bästa heavy metal-låtarna någonsin. Diamond Head splittrades 1985 och har sedan dess återförenats flera gånger av Brian Tatler som är den ende originalmedlemmen. Hemma hos mig pratar han om sin långa och mödosamma karriär, om hur mycket hjälp han fått av Metallica som tolkat inte mindre än fyra Diamond Head-låtar och om sitt nuvarande jobb som gitarrist i Saxon.

We unearth raw, powerful audio clips of these performances, including a crushing version of "Road Racin'" into "Ancient Evil." Jarvis explains why Night Demon drove hours out of their way to spend as many nights as possible at home in Ventura.  And he recounts the pitfalls of a door deal show on a Sunday night in Vegas with no hotel rooms to be found.

This month we're back to the BC era (Before Colin), where we'll be discussing our favourite songs of 1980, inlcuding lashings of nuclear paranoia, a brace of classic metal, and a nice healthy dollop of goth.We've each chosen our 10 favourite songs of the year and sent them over to Colin's wife Helen, who put the playlists together and distributed them so we were each given a playlist of the 20 songs from the other two hosts, along with our own 10. We then ranked the playlists in order of preference and sent them back to Helen, who totalled up the points and worked out the order.She also joined us on the episode to read out the countdown, which we found out as we recorded so all reactions are genuine.Now, admittedly, in parts we're a little bit brutal to some of the songs in the list as we're three separate people with differing music tastes, but please remember that to be in this episode at all the songs have to have been in one of our top 10's of that year. Bands featured in this episode include (In alphabetical order, no spoilers here!) - AC/DC, Bauhaus, The Beat, David Bowie, Kate Bush, Cabaret Voltaire, Comsat Angels, The Clash, The Cramps, The Cure, Dead Kennedys, Devo, Dexys Midnight Runners, Diamond Head, Iron Maiden, Japan, Nic Jones, Journey, Joy Division, Judas Priest, Killing Joke, Motorhead, The Only Ones, Orchestral Manouvres In The Dark, Ozzy Osbourne, Siouxsie & The Banshees, The Specials, Stiff Little Fingers, Talking Heads, & Visage.Find all songs in alphabetical order here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1kij98NJCpKCK24D6GsvRG?si=cf71849309184fa9Find our We Dig Music Pollwinners Party playlist (featuring all of the winning songs up until now) here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/45zfDHo8zm6VqrvoEQSt3z?si=Ivt0oMj6SmitimvumYfFrQIf you want to listen to megalength playlists of all the songs we've individually picked since we started doing best of the year episodes, you can listen to Colin's here – https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5x3Vy5Jry2IxG9JNOtabRT?si=HhcVKRCtRhWCK1KucyrDdg Ian's here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2H0hnxe6WX50QNQdlfRH5T?si=XmEjnRqISNqDwi30p1uLqA and Tracey's here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2p3K0n8dKhjHb2nKBSYnKi?si=7a-cyDvSSuugdV1m5md9Nw The playlist of 20 songs from the other two hosts was scored as usual, our favourite song got 20 points, counting down incrementally to our least favourite which got 1 point. The scoring of our own list of 10 is now slightly more complicated in order to give a truer level of points to our own favourites. So rather than them only being able to score as many points as our 10th favourite in the other list, the points in our own list were distributed as follows -1st place - 20 points2nd place - 18 points3rd place – 16 points4th place – 14 points5th place – 12 points6th place – 9 points7th place – 7 points8th place – 5 points9th place – 3 points10th place -1 pointHosts - Ian Clarke, Colin Jackson-Brown & Tracey BGuest starring Helen Jackson-Brown.Playlist compiling/distributing – Helen Jackson-BrownRecorded/Edited/Mixed/Original Music by Colin Jackson-Brown for We Dig PodcastsThanks to Peter Latimer for help with the scoring system.Say hello at www.facebook.com/wedigmusicpcast or tweet us at http://twitter.com/wedigmusicpcast or look at shiny pictures on Instagram at http://instagram.com/wedigmusicpcast Part of the We Made This podcast network. https://twitter.com/wmt_network You can also find all the We Dig Music & Free With This Months Issue episodes at www.wedigpodcasts.com

This week's episode delves into the whys and wherefores of Night Demon's inaugural tour of the United States with Raven in 2014. You will hear about crushing financial pressures, myriad hardships leaving the band focused completely on survival, and the welcome addition of Andrew Bansal to the touring party. Despite the difficulties, the Night Demon guys were thrilled because they were finally in the band they wanted to be in, living the dream with 45 shows in 53 days opening for the legendary Raven.  You will also hear how drummer Dusty was very nearly taken out of commission before the tour even started thanks to a wayward RV near the Grand Canyon.

Back in 2014, Night Demon recorded a cover version of the NWOBHM classic "Axe Crazy," by the band Jaguar.  This week's episode takes a deep dive into that song.  Jaguar guitarist and founding member Garry Pepperd chronicles the formation of the band and explains how "Axe Crazy" came about and why it was released as a single rather than on a proper album.  The Night Demon band members describe how they came to be aware of Jaguar and "Axe Crazy," and talk about their reasons for recording it and how it became a staple in their live set for several years.  You will also hear from Jarvis and Garry about the brief period when Jarvis became the lead vocalist for Jaguar, and the handful of shows he performed with them.  The guys reflect on the enduring appeal of the song and the reasons why it will never truly be retired from the Night Demon set.Become a subscriber today at nightdemon.net/subscriber.

I've lived in Hawaii for almost three decades, primarily in the southern part of the island in an area known as Hawaii Kai. If you're on Oahu, I highly recommend stopping in this community before heading along the coast.  This community is the gateway to Hawaii's most beautiful coastline; the Ka Iwi Coast, located approximately 15 miles south of Waikiki.  Getting there is an easy, short drive from Waikiki, and along the way is Koko Marina Shopping Center. It's the perfect stop for an early morning breakfast before exploring the coast or spending the day at Hanauma Bay.  Here, you'll find local shops, restaurants, and the famous Leonard's Malasada truck. Malasadas are Hawaii's answer to doughnuts, and people flock from all over the world to try them.  This coastal stretch spans about 8 miles and features numerous must-see attractions. I frequently hike along this coastline, which has made it an intimately familiar place, and I consistently find it awe-inspiring.  Ka Iwi" in Hawaiian means "the bone," and there are multiple interpretations of how it was named. However, it is generally believed that the name serves as a reminder of the significant importance that bones hold, as they are believed to contain "Mana," or a person's soul. It is also thought that Ka Iwi coast was one of the first landing sites for the Native Hawaiians who arrived from Polynesia on Oahu. You can take as little or as much time as you like to explore the coast, and there are a couple of stops where you can pause and spend the day, if you wish. For example, you could spend the day at Hanauma Bay or combine the Makapuu Lighthouse hike with an afternoon swim at Waimanalo Beach, a little further up the coast. If you want to take a scenic drive, the coast is perfect for that and will take about an hour to complete, with short stops at the various lookouts along the way.  These are the highlights to explore; China Walls  China Walls Cliffs Just South of Koko Marina, you can discover China Walls. It's accessed from the Portlock residential neighborhood via a park at Hanepepe Place.  It's known for its dramatic natural rock formations, which create a series of cliffs and ledges along the shoreline. Visitors should know that cliff jumping can be dangerous and should exercise caution if considering it. Koko Crater As you continue south on Kalanianaole Highway, you'll see a lookout on the left side with a view of Koko Crater. Feel free to park your car and capture some photos, and be sure to glance back toward Waikiki for a spectacular view of the south side, including Diamond Head. Koko Crater Lookout Lanai Lookout After passing Hanauma Bay, you'll come across Lanai Lookout. On a clear day, you can spot the islands of Lanai and Molokai, which is how it got its name. During the winter months, which is whale-watching season, you might even catch sight of whales breaching in the ocean. Lanai Lookout - Ka Iwi Coast Halona Blowhole The next attraction is the Halona Blow Hole as you proceed along the coast. It's a natural geyser that ejects a spray of water when wave energy collides with the rocky shoreline. Additionally, there's an access point to Halona Beach Cove, which you can reach via a steep pathway adjacent to the parking area. This may look familiar since it's a popular filming location for Movies and TV shows. Halona Blow Hole Sandy Beach Park Sandy's, as locals commonly call it, is a stretch of golden sandy beach situated at the foot of Koko Crater. The beach isn't particularly safe for swimming due to the strong shore break. However, if you are an experienced boogie boarder or bodysurfer, this is the ideal spot for you. Alternatively, I recommend simply driving through and making a stop at the tide pools just beyond the beach. You can dip your toes in the water or wade in if you prefer. Sandy Beach Park Makapuu Lookout and Lighthouse  The final destination along the coast is Makapu...
