NWOBHM The New Wave Of British Heavy Metal Frequently Abbreviated As NWOBHM Is A Heavy Metal Music Movement That Started In The Late 1970s In Britain And Achieved Some International Attention By The Early 1980s. The Era Developed As A Reaction In Part To The Decline Of Early Heavy Metal Bands Such As Deep Purple Led Zeppelin And Black Sabbath. NWOBHM Bands Toned Down The Blues Influences Of Earlier Acts Increased The Tempo And Adopted A "tougher" Sound Taking A Harder Approach To Its Music. It Was A Scene Directed Almost Exclusively At Heavy Metal Fans. The Era Is Considered To Be A Main Foundation For Heavy Metal Sub-Genres With Acts Such As Metallica Citing NWOBHM Bands Like Saxon Diamond Head And Iron Maiden As A Major Influence On Their Musical Style. The Early Movement Was Associated With Acts Such As Iron Maiden Saxon Motörhead Def Leppard Angel Witch Tygers Of Pan Tang Blitzkrieg Avenger Sweet Savage Girlschool Jaguar Demon Diamond Head Samson And Tank Among Others. The Image Of Bands Such As Saxon Long Hair Denim Jackets Leather And Chains Would Later Become Synonymous With Heavy Metal As A Whole During The 1980s. Some Bands Although Conceived During This Era Saw Success On An Underground Scale As Was The Case With Venom And Quartz. Looking At Most Comprehensive Lists Of Bands Of The Time Reveals Hundreds Of Obscure Or Short Lived Acts. While The Average Listener Would Possibly Gloss Over These Unknowns Looking For More Recognisable Acts Record Collectors Revere Such Bands. The Sheer Number Of Low Cost Demos From The Era As Well As The Limited Amount Of Information And Media Coverage Of The Era Has Led To Some Of The Releases Becoming Highly Collectable. Records Originally Pressed For Very Little Cost Have Sold More Recently To Collectors For Hundreds Of Dollars. In Some Cases As Few As 1 Copy Of A Record Is Known To Exist.
