Metal Britannia


As with all the Britannia music documentaries on BBC4, last nights Metal Britannia was another great watch. I've never really liked metal, and i probably have my Mum to thank for that. Back in the 80's she threw my ACDC & Saxon records on the fire because she thought they were satanic, ha ha. I was proper gutted at the time but she probably saved me from a lifetime of listening to that turgid dross. And she gave me back the money i'd paid for them.
Anyway back to the show. I enjoyed early footage of Black Sabbath (a truly great band name), Ozzy looking cool, and the unstoppable juggernaut that is Motorhead. Saxon are still proper shit though.
Thanks for saving me Mum.
