VBS: Heavy Metal Roadshow [video]
metaldazza / Oct. 14, 2009, 1:43 p.m.
Despite being the birth place of Heavy Metal the UK has always suffered from fans and the press gravitating towards more polished and some would say more professional American bands leaving the home grown scene a little under nourished.
For the last two years the tide seems to be turning with bands like Evile, Gama Bomb, Warpath, Savage Messiah and Pitiful Reign (to name but a few) spreading their wings, getting their act together, touring relentlessly and releasing strong EP's and Albums.
VBS.tv sent Iano Dovi over to the UK to investigate the scene on it's 40th anniversary and it's a pretty interesting documentary:
