You guys havent heard enough NWOBHM. A lot of those bands, esepcially the ones that put out releases in 80 and 81 had a very rockin sound that some of you would equate with Cock Rock. And I've heard just about every Saxon release, and up until the 90's they were NWOBHM, after that they became power metal. But seriously, listen to more NWOBHM and you'll hear quite a bit of rocking.
Yeah I know man, even Holocaust does it, so tell me what the difference is between something like Dokken's Tooth and Nail or Wasp's 1st two albums and the "rocking" NWOBHM that gets a free pass...... Thank about it, especially bands like Sweet Savage, Girlschool, Tygers of Pan Tang, FIST etc...... I listen to a lot of NWOBHM......or did (old shit bores me now). My point isn't wether it is bad or good, just that there is a double standard for Brit bands vs US bands of that time period. You know for sure Too Fast for Love ate up a lot of NWOBHM stuff (not the top teir, but def the 2nd teir stuff that is cool to dig now)
