February 1987

February 1987

Welcome to this weeks episode of The Heavy Metal History Podcast.

This year on the podcast we decided to change things up with the content and move far ahead to albums celebrating 30, 20 and 10 year anniversaries respectively.

So with that, we move ahead to February 1987 (No metal releases in January of 1987 somehow).

Our Guest this week was Matt Solis who plays in the band Cormorant and writer for Decibel magazine. We discussed 3 albums and did a VERY special dramatic reading of King Diamond's "Abigail" record, spooky ambient music included! Even for the beginning of 1987 the releases that were put out are already a sign of the evolution of the genre in a very short amount of time, the speed, ferocity and technicality in which a lot of these albums were written is a good indicator of where the genre would end up in present day.

We hope you enjoy this episode and get a kick out of what we did.

Albums we discussed this week:

  • Racer X - "Second Heat"
  • Manowar - "Fighting the World"
  • King Diamond - "Abigail"
