We are all about tributes here at Rock of Nations! That's exactly why we are honoring the 45 to 50-year legacy that is the New Wave of British Heavy Metal with a collection of interviews from our favorite bands of the genre.(NWOBHM) was an iconic late-70s/early-80s movement that revitalized heavy metal by combining the speed and aggression of punk guitar attack with heavy blues riffs, clearing the way for bands like Iron Maiden and Metallica.This special includes chats with: #BiffByford of #Saxon (January 2024),#JudasPriest singer #RobHalford(August 2020),#JudasPriest founding guitarist #KKDowning (January 2022), #IronMaiden's #BruceDickinson (August 2025), and drummer #NickoMcBrain (February 2026).Find us on social:YouTube: @RockofNationsWithDaveandShaneInstagram: @RockNationsDKTikTok: @RockOfNationswithDKFacebook: @RockofNationsDKX (Twitter): @RockNationsDKSHOW CREDITSHosts & Producers: Dave Kinchen and Shane McEachernTheme Music: Lyrics written by Dave KinchenSound Design: Produced with AI assistance and Drum Pad Machine
It's that time of the year when the boys get all spiffed up for the 2026 Tony Awards! No, not those Tony Awards. The ones where we hand out golden pentagrams to bands that wear their denim and leather proudly! This year we have special guest presenters from around the podcasting world. All bands and winners are selected for the coveted Tony Award by the man himself: our esteemed Chairman, Mr. Tony Griggs! What's this InObscuria thing? We're a podcast that exhumes obscure Rock n' Punk n' Metal and puts them in one of 3 categories: the Lost, the Forgotten, or the Should Have Beens. This week we discuss the SHOULD BEs. Taking their cues from the music, fashion, and the attitude from 40+ years ago, these younger bands unashamedly bask in a new underground movement of hard rock and metal poised to make the kids rock and the old timers smile! Songs this week include: Stereo Nasty – “Summoning” from Summoning (2026) The Night Eternal – “Where The World Ends” from Cold Velvet (2026) Savetta – “Heat Of The Night” from Heat Of The Night (2026) Spell – “Lilac” from Wretched Heart (2026) MEGA COLOSSUS – “The Halls Of Mystikos” from Watch Out!

This week's episode is brought to you by the colors: yellow, orange, and brown. The 8th volume of our deep dive into the trippy and groovy beginnings of the heavy stuff! Cut your lava lamp on, gaze at that blacklight poster through the haze of purple smoke, and join your favorite rock n' roll grave robbers as they dig deep into the core of 70s Acid Rock n' Proto Metal crypt to unearth some obscure bands that helped influence and mold what would become known as Heavy Metal. 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 particular episode is planted firmly in the LOST category, as all of these recordings occurred between 1970 – 1973. As always, our hope is that we turn you on to something new in a genre and decade that you may have thought you already knew everything there was to know. Songs this week include: Zoot - “Hey Pinky” from Zoot Out (1971) Head Over Heels - “Road Runner” from Head Over Heels (1971) Fresh Blueberry Pancake - “Hassels” from Heavy (1970) Wicked Lady - “I'm A Freak” from Psychotic Overkill (1972) Irish Coffee - “Can't Take It” from Irish Coffee (1971) Light Of Darkness - “Movin' Along” from Light Of Darkness (1971) Ancient Grease - “Mother Grease The Cat” from Women And Children First (1970) Jane - “Here We Are” from Here We Are (1973) Visit us: https://inobscuria.com/ https://bonelesspodcasting.com/shows/in-obscuria https://www.facebook.com/InObscuria https://twitter.com/inobscuria https://www.instagram.com/inobscuria/ Buy cool stuff with our logo on it: InObscuria Store Check 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/
Recuperamos en Corsarios nuestro majestuoso programa sobre los Pioneros, referentes y antecedentes de la NWOBHM, que no habíamos publicado. Dentro de la serie de programas documentales que dedicamos a la NWOBHM( New Wave of British Heavy Metal/Nueva Ola del Heavy Británico), vamos a abordar el estilo desde una perspectiva poco habitual, y es la de las bandas pioneras y referentes de las que luego conformarían el movimiento. El hard rock es británico y surge en los 70 en UK a través de todas las bandas y circunstancias que os contamos aquí. Sería muy fácil hablar de LED ZEPPELIN, QUEEN o BLACK SABBATH sin más, a los que por supuesto mencionaremos, pero esto es Corsarios y nos gusta ir mucho más allá que cualquier medio generalista por lo que ya sabéis que podéis esperar un análisis más profundo, música seleccionada con esmero y mucha opinión junto a la información que hemos recopilado de un tema que nos apasiona.

Nox Sinister is hard to pin down into just one subgenre of heavy metal. They use a blend of techniques borrowed from NWOBHM, thrash, progressive, death and even power metal. The members of Sinister pride themselves on marrying aggression with theatricality, often using brutal thrashing riffs to tell complex stories with broad themes. Heavily inspired by the works of Shakespeare, dark fantasy, medieval history, comic book supervillains, and the world of horror movies, Nox Sinister seeks to create a new kind of sound and a new kind of live performance. Often using the phrase they have coined; "violent musical theatre,' Sinister is a force to be reckoned with both in the studio and on the stage.Something Rather Than Nothing Podcast

We're a podcast that exhumes obscure Rock n' Punk n' Metal and puts them in one of 3 categories: the Lost, the Forgotten, or the Should Have Beens. This week we discuss all three. Get out your old 70's Guitar Player mags and flip the pages as we discuss some of the most amazing fingers to ever touch a fretboard!

Meet Captain Content & Kevin in the pit again this week for a hella good time! We're getting our aggressions out by revisiting the starting point of it all for Kevin. The thrash, crossover, speed metal movement of the 80s spawned his love of all things rock n' punk n' metal. This time around the circle pit, we are focusing on Crossover Thrash.

Hope ya have a slammin' good time with this one! What is it that we do here at InObscuria? We exhume obscure Rock n' Punk n' Metal in one of 3 categories: the Lost, the Forgotten, or the Should Have Beens. In this episode we explore all things mosh-worthy! This is real metal, people.

This Week on America's Podcast, we crank up the volume and dive headfirst into Lightning to the Nations by Diamond Head — the album that helped inspire a generation of thrash metal bands to pick up guitars, grow their hair out, and scare the neighbors! But here's the big question: Is it a true NWOBHM classic… or were the cover versions by other bands actually better? Uh oh… somebody hide the comment section! To help settle the debate (or make it even more chaotic), we bring in family members Travis Perrotta and Andy Rodriguez. No spoilers, but let's just say opinions fly around faster than a double bass drum beat after three energy drinks. Tracks of the Week Andy — Electric Eye by Judas Priest Travis — The Wild, the Willing and the Innocent by UFO Jerry — Breadfan by Florence Black Marc — Let Love Rule by Lenny Kravitz Mooger — Nosferatu Madre by Clutch Make sure to subscribe to us on Apple Podcasts, give us a five-star review, and follow us on Amazon Music, Podchaser, and Podbean!

Believe it or not, the classic Judas Priest album "Turbo" recently celebrated its 40th Bday! This is an interesting album in the whole JP discography. Fans were split as the band experimented with more modern sounds and images in an effort to look more "80s". So its a great time to feature "Turbo" in our "40th Anniversay Album Spotlight Series". We do a track by track deep dive. And share how we discovered the record, the controversial 80s overhaul and if JP could truly be considered NWOBHM. Luv it or hate it, you no doubt have a strong opinion of it. Musically, we crank some D.R.I., Pig Destroyer, Vreid, Temple of Void, Sinner, Savage, Turbo (the Polish band) and we feature British bangers Olympus in our "Indie Spotlight". Horns Up!!

It is with heavy hearts that we deliver this week's episode honoring the passing of another guitar hero giant whose riffs were mighty enough to support Lemmy: Phil Campbell.

We pay tribute to this amazing Welsh guitarist and celebrate his entire discography! Rest in power, Phil! New to InObscuria?

Don and Dude kick off March Metal Madness at the molten core of metal history, where early 70s riff worship collides with turn‑of‑the‑century whiplash politics and drop‑tuned chaos. Quiet is not invited as roaring Hammond organ runs, arena‑sized choruses, jagged time shifts, and Armenian folk‑tinged melodies slam together in a bracket‑busting showdown between a founding father of heavy and a band that made nu metal feel like something stranger, smarter, and way more volatile.The AlbumsDeep Purple – Machine Head (1972) Deep Purple bottle their live attack into a lean set of riff‑driven hard rock and early metal, powered by screaming organ, precision guitar runs, and road‑forged songs about speed, smoke, and space.System of a Down – Toxicity (2001) System of a Down fuse drop‑C chugs, political fury, Armenian melodies, and lurching song structures into a sharp, funny, and uncomfortably intense metal statement that made nu metal look small by comparison.Diggin' AlbumsThe Black Crowes – A Pound of Feathers (2026) Blues‑drenched rock lifers push their Southern swagger into heavier, more instinctive territory, chasing loose, live‑band energy and gritty riffs over quick‑cut Nashville sessions.Def Leppard – On Through the Night (1980) Early Def Leppard catches the band in raw NWOBHM mode, all scrappy dual‑guitar attack and hungry choruses before the big‑budget 80s gloss took over.Ora Cogan – Hard Hearted Woman (2026) Smoky, slow‑burn songs drift between haunted folk, shadowy psych, and dusty country, wrapping breakup scars and political unease in echo‑laden guitar and moody band arrangements.The Notwist – News from Planet Zombie (2026) Long‑running German shapeshifters stitch guitars, electronics, brass, and mallet percussion into anxious, off‑kilter indie pop that stares down a chaotic world with small, stubborn flashes of hope.Follow & Support Follow the show on Instagram, Facebook, Threads, and Bluesky @albumnerds, and support by subscribing, rating, reviewing, and sharing.“It wasn't called ‘heavy metal' when we invented it.” – Dave Davies
Onslaught were pioneers of a new sound back in the early 80's born from Punk and the NWOBHM they fused together a sound that would put them at the forefront of the thrash scene just as Metallica and Anthrax were emerging in the US.44 years later they are still performing across the globe and recording this month see's them head out on an extensive US tour .Nige Rockett one of the founder members of the band who has been there since day 1 joins us on the show today as we look back at their emergence in teh 80's and come full circle to 2026 and what the future holds.
This week, the lads hop across the pond to continue excavating denim and leather. It's all about the New Wave Of British Heavy Metal! The NWOBM movement was filled with passionate bands that were poised to take over the world. Unfortunately, most of them didn't make it to the level of Iron Maiden, Def Leppard, or Saxon. Hopefully, we can help spread the word and sounds for those who didn't. What's this InObscuria thing? We're a podcast that exhumes obscure Rock n' Punk n' Metal and puts them in one of 3 categories: the Lost, the Forgotten, or the Should Have Beens. This week we discuss the LOST.

When an Australian thrash band that never broke big in the U.S. gets compared to early Metallica, Slayer, and Maiden in the same breath, you know you've stumbled onto something special. This episode dives into Mortal Sin's 1986 debut Mayhemic Destruction—a ferocious, drum‑heavy, DIY thrash record from Sydney that plays like a missing puzzle piece in 80s metal history.Across the conversation, the hosts unpack how Mortal Sin emerged out of Australia's pub‑rock and Buffalo‑style heavy scene into a faster, more aggressive sound after drummer Wayne Campbell discovered Metallica through tape‑trading in 1984. They trace the band's rapid rise from self‑funded studio upstarts to landing a global deal, touring with Metallica, Megadeth, and Testament, and struggling with that classic “too big for pubs, too small for arenas” problem back home. Along the way, they dig into the band's revolving‑door lineup, eerie mystery around the original drummer's disappearance, and the evolution of Mortal Sin's sound across later records.Musically, the episode zeroes in on what makes Mayhemic Destruction such a compelling outlier in 80s thrash. The drums and low end dominate the mix in a way that completely inverts the American template, forcing listeners to dig for the guitars and exposing a strange, rewarding hybrid of thrash, New Wave of British Heavy Metal, power metal, Motörhead grit, and proto‑death‑metal experiments on the title track. There's plenty of love for the riffs, time‑changes, and dark modal choices in songs like “The Curse” and “Lebanon,” but also honest criticism of the limited, Hetfield‑ish vocal approach and the odd sequencing choices that bury some of the strongest material in the back half.If you're into 80s thrash metal, early Metallica, Slayer, Anthrax, Testament, NWOBHM, or obscure Australian metal bands that never quite got their due, this deep dive into Mortal Sin and Mayhemic Destruction is absolutely in your wheelhouse. It's a conversation about more than one album—it's about how geography, timing, and weird production decisions can turn a record into a cult artifact waiting to be rediscovered.Episode Highlights0:00 – Mayhem from Sydney – Setting up Mortal Sin, Mayhemic Destruction, and why this Australian thrash debut matters in the 80s metal landscape.5:05 – Battle jackets and logos – Gavin's origin story with Mortal Sin via patches, Kerrang! mags, and why some bands lived as imagery long before you ever heard a note.7:00 – Band history and lineup chaos – From Sydney origins and early rehearsals with Lino to global deals, tours with Metallica and Megadeth, and constant guitar player turnover.12:05 – DIY Mega Metal and Hetfield's stamp – Recording at 301 Studios, self‑releasing the album, mailing it out like a zine, and landing James Hetfield's 1986 endorsement.17:20 – “The Curse” – How the opening riffing, harmonics, and dissonant second‑guitar lines signal that Mortal Sin aren't just copying Bay Area thrash.22:30 – Drum mix from another planet – Why the massive, low‑end‑heavy drum sound flips the usual thrash hierarchy and changes how you hear the riffs and groove.24:50 – “Lebanon” – Dark, almost Slayer‑like scales, Dokken/Mr. Scary vibes, and how this track becomes a standout for mood and melody.25:30 – Thrash without a ballad – The near‑total absence of slow songs, the fake‑out intro of “Liar,” and what that says about the band's commitment to speed and aggression.30:15 – Honest strengths and weak spots – Praise for the riffs and rhythm section, plus a candid look at the limited vocals, buried mixes, and backward‑feeling sequencing.35:25 – Album art, demons, and Sydney in ruins – The Dungeons & Dragons‑style cover, nuked‑city imagery, and why this screamed “Tipper Gore nightmare” in the 80s.35:30 – “Mayhemic Destruction” (title track) – Proto‑death‑metal vocals and blast beats a year before Death's Scream Bloody Gore, and why burying it as the closer was a smart move.40:30 – Live vs. studio – What the 20th anniversary live tracks reveal about the band's true sound compared to the unique, drum‑heavy studio mix.[45:00 – Final verdict – Is Mayhemic Destruction a worthy album, a decent single, or a lost cult gem in the Australian thrash canon?Love uncovering 80s metal obscurities and lost thrash gems?

Blood Curse began in 2016 with Aaron on vocals and guitar, his wife Olivia Franks on drums, and Micah Young on bass and backing vocals. They briefly had a second guitarist, George Graas, but parted ways due to style and personality clashes. Micah left a month before recording their debut album, "Sorceress," in 2018. Scott Briggs, who produced the album, joined the band in March 2018, solidifying the lineup. Blood Curse are influenced by various music genres, particularly Metallica, 80s metal, 90s grunge, NWOBHM bands like Angel Witch and Witchfinder General, and 80s American Power Metal.
