Angel Witch is a NWOBHM band that kicks uber ass. I have their compilation, titled "Resurrection", and it is quite amazing.

Info:

The band was founded under the name of Lucifer and initially comprised of guitarist and vocalist Kevin Heybourne, guitarist Rob Downing, drummer Steve Jones, and bassist Barry Clements. Lucifer split and Steve Jones joined up with Bruce Dickinson to form Speed. The remnants of Lucifer became Angel Witch, with the exceptions of Barry, who was replaced by Kevin Riddles, and Steve Jones, who was replaced by Dave Hogg. The following year Rob Downing left the band.


They were together from 1977 to 2004, reformed in 2005, and split up again the same year.

Any fans here?

Oh yea I forgot about the debut, off of which some songs were taken for the compilation (I believe, don't hold me to that). I still need to nab that one.

Ah yes..I am a huge Angel Witch fan. I think their self titled album is probably their best album and is probably one of the best NWOBHM albums out there..it could even be one of the best metal albums in general in my opinion! Anyways I always thought they would be a great starting out band for anyone wanting to get into metal. Cheers!

Holy fuck an angel witch thread, nice thread dude, I don't wanna sound like a broken record but their first album is amazing, and the only other one worth getting is their second release Screamin and Bleedin, classic metal band

//I love their first self entitled release! I just got my hands on the 25 yr anniversary edition of that album. Love just about every song on that album. There are also a couple live ones that were just exceptional! wish i would have been alive around that time to see them and Maiden when they first came out in 1980 To me, thats when REAL metal started//

I still haven't gotten their new one yet but what I heard, I liked. "Dead Sea Scrolls" especially. Of course the S/T is a classic.
