NWOBHM EPs Vol 4 : 1984-1986

Well, here we are again with another new post, this time completing (for now) the New Wave Of British Heavy Metal EPs series. A nice balance between one shot bands with their sole releases, and bands who were able to get a few releases under their belts, such as LE GRIFFE, WARRIOR & PERSIAN RISK.
Lots of variety in sound & style, but quality written all the way through like a stick of Blackpool rock.
Also as a cheeky bonus, there's the awesome & inventive IRON MAIDEN vs WAXAUDIO Mashup EP. Put together by some Australian genius/madman, this contains sonic soundclash versions of several Maiden classics colliding with dance, drum'n'bass & banghra beats. A horrifying proposition to purists, but these songs have been put together with such skill, care & humour, that they deserve to be heard. The band themselves have always had a good sense of humour, i'm sure they'd approve. Enjoy.

It's hardly NWOBHM if the earliest recording is 5 years after the NWOBHM started!
