It's lonely being a Raven Lunatic, especially in the U.S. :(

If it was 1981-1984 and you lived in the UK you wouldn't be so lonely.

 

Very true. Or if I were in Japan during the 90s (when Japan was the only place that gave them a record deal...)

I don't think they were the only NWOBHM band that had that problem.

I think I read somewhere that Dennis Stratton from Maiden toured with Praying Mantis quite often over in Japan during the 90's.

For me, it is between....

Ozzy Osbourne "Blizard Of Ozz"

AC/DC "For Those About To Rock"

Def Leppard "High And Dry"

Y&T "Earthshaker"

but...

I went with Def Leppard "High And Dry" in the end!

Well damn I am the ONLY one that voted for "Denim and Leather""

 

It was a hard choice, Raven ALMOST got My pick, but, well, that Saxon album is just SO good...

 

Sorry Keith..... :P

 

Ehh, it's my own fault...I'm the one who turned you on to Saxon in the first place. Curses! :P

Hmmmm, another poll I was M.I.A. on when it was originally posted. Though not truly a "metal" album, I voted for AC/DC: "For Those About to Rock," my fave from this bunch.

Def Leppard- High & Dry then Riot & Y&T no exactly Heavy Metal albums they are Heavy/Hard Rock

 

By 1981 standards, Def Leppard's HIGH N DRY was pretty damn metal, if you ask me :banger:

Backed. And that was the point on some of these threads that at the time those bands were considered Metal.

Now on the later yearly Metal threads I unfortunately lost the plot. :anon:

I was trying to hard to include enought bands so everyone could have someone to vote for.
