Britsh Heavy Metal

Venom was the best band during this "movement" and generally one of the very few bands that were actually worth listening to...

I have to agree there. Venom is about the only British band from that period that I'm interested in.

If I remember correctly they were late 70's

They did a great cover of Eleanor Rigby but it's not on Youtube !!
Nice to be able to go back to trust and friendship!!!!!!!!!

It's a mixed up sensation this being alive
Oh! it wears a man down into the ground
It's the strangest elation
I can't describe it
Oh it leaves a man weary
It makes a man frown.
