Channel Title: Metal School Channel Description: Documentary-style videos about '80s metal bands. This is all my own research and personal opinion. Nothing should be taken as cold, hard fact. I do as much research as possible given what's available but ultimately, this is all just to the best of my knowledge. If I've gotten something wrong, PLEASE correct me. If you love an album I didn't particularly like, maybe there's something I missed. School me back! NOTE: I do not make money on any of these videos. At all. Nothing is monetized and any ad revenue goes directly to the rights holders. All music and video rights belong to the respective owners, not me. This channel is only to promote these bands and their music and to give an overview of a few well known bands as well as some who might not get as much attention as they deserve anymore. <video> Metal School - Turbo: Polish Thrash Pioneers Description: A retrospective on one of the biggest metal bands from Poland. Turbo started off with a more traditional heavy metal style before switching to power/thrash with a side of death metal. They went through a couple different sounds but they are very much worth checking out. So, I hope you kick back and relax as we look at a largely unknown band here in the West, Turbo!

Join me as I take a look back at their classic material as well as what Medieval Steel is up to currently. #MetalSchool #MedievalSteel #80smetal #epicmetal #dungeontapes #bobbyfranklin #chuckjones #darkcastle #listentothis #guitarsolo #musicvideo #documentary #musicdocumentary #memphis #oldschool </video> <video> Metal School - Accept Description: A retrospective on Accept, one of Germany's biggest metal bands and pioneers of early speed metal.

From Zurich, Switzerland, Celtic Frost was formed in 1984 by frontman and guitarist Tom G. Warrior after dissolving his original band, Hellhammer, along with bassist Martin Ain. The two would develop a troubled, on and off again relationship as Tom attempted to achieve his ambitious goals of creating something new and lasting in the heavy metal scene. He'd both succeed and fail with the release of some of the most celebrated black/death metal albums of all time, as well as one of the most hated albums ever. Buckle up and settle in for a look back at Celtic Frost, whichever way you pronounce it. </video> <video> Metal School - 5 GERMAN ’80s Metal Bands With Only ONE Album Description: I've picked out five awesome German heavy metal bands from the ’80s that unfortunately only managed to release one studio album. I can just about guarantee you haven't heard all five of these, so settle in and check 'em out! Believe me, you'll want to stick around through all five. There are some pretty amazing albums here that I'm dying to share with you all. #MetalSchool #HeavyMetal #80sMetal #SaintsAnger #Airwolf #Vampyr #ForcedEntry #Hammerschmitt #1985 #1988 #DangerMetal #VictoryBells #CryOutForMetal #listentothis #guitarsolo #livemusic #heavymetaldocumentary #bandswithonealbum #onealbum #albumcover #music #GermanMetal #Germany #awesomemusic #awesomevideo #oldschool #powermetal #speedmetal </video> <video> Metal School - TANK Description: A look back at British metal band TANK. Originally started as a three-piece and founded by Algy Ward, TANK has gone through several lineup changes and a few small style changes, but their 80s albums are still fantastic and worth a listen (or revisit) today. Join me as I go through their history and every album (for all three versions) of this classic NWOBHM band. #metalschool #heavymetal #NWOBHM #TANK #AlgyWard #MarkBrabbs #PeterBrabbs #CliffEvans #MickTucker #filthhoundsofhades #powerofthehunter #thismeanswar #honourandblood #walkingbarefootoverglass #stormtrooper #motorhead #listentothis #albumcover #guitarsolo #musicvideo #britishmetal #ukmetal #80smetal #bandhistory #documentary #tunyourheadaround #heavyartillery </video> <video> Metal School - Testament Description: Go over the wall and into the pit as we dive deep into the history of one of the Bay Area's best thrash bands, Testament. Join me as I take a look at the music, albums, and videos of a group that brings plenty of technical skill along with the brutal riffage. #MetalSchool #heavymetal #thrashmetal #Testament #chuckbilly #alexskolnick #ericpeterson #gregchristian #louieclemente #thelegacy #speedmetal #theneworder #trialbyfire #overthewall #intothepit #practicewhatyoupreach #soulsofblack #theritual #bayarea #listentothis #metalmusic #albumcover #guitarsolo #heavymusic #documentary </video> <video> Metal School - Arkangel Description: Widely considered the longest-running Latin American heavy metal band, Arkangel from Venezuela was formed way back in 1978 after being inspired by KISS. They'd get the first Venezuelan music video and one of the first color TV appearances in the country, followed by an initial run of three outstanding albums. Join me as I take a look at one of the most influential South American metal bands, who of course had their fair share of obstacles and road bumps. But they're still going today, led by founding guitarist and drummer, the Picozzi brothers, so check 'em out!

White Lion had a rather short-lived career with only a few major hits, but they definitely deserve a revisit, especially Vito Bratta's virtuosic guitar playing. Join me as I take a look back at the songs, albums, and music videos of White Lion.

Formed by vocalist Zeeb Parkes and guitarist Phil Cope, Witchfinder General only released two albums in the '80s but helped influence the burgeoning doom metal sound with their heavy and often gloomy Black Sabbath-inspired riffs. But they also have a ton of more mid- and uptempo tracks that give this underrated band more variety than you might expect. #MetalSchool #WitchfinderGeneral #ZeebParkes #PhilCope #DeathPenalty #FriendsofHell #heavymetal #metalmusic #guitarsolo #doommetal #nwobhm #britishmetal #blacksabbath #80smetal </video> <video> Metal School - Y&T Description: A retrospective and review of Y&T, formerly Yesterday and Today, often considered one of the ultimate "they should have been bigger" bands. Join me as I take a look back at the band's music, albums, and wacky music videos, many of which feature their bizarre mascot, Rock, the metal robot. #MetalSchool #Y&T #heavymetal #metalmusic #guitarsolo #metalhead #DaveMeniketti #LeonardHaze #JoeyAlves #Earthshaker #BlackTiger #SummertimeGirls #MeanStreak #InRockWeTrust #DontStopRunnin #LipstickandLeather </video> <video> Metal School - Savage Grace (ft. Masters of Disguise) Description: A retrospective on Los Angeles power/speed metal band, Savage Grace, formed by Chris Logue and named by the great Randy Rhoads. Join me as I take a look back at a band with some unique, fantastic early albums but who never could seem to hold on to a regular lineup. #metalschool #SavageGrace #MasterofDisguise #ChrisLogue #KennyPowell #Afterthefallfromgrace #listentothis #heavymetal #sunsetstrip #guitarsolo #metalhead #metalmusic #lametal #speedmetal #powermetal #losangeles </video> <video> Metal School - Satan (ft. Blind Fury / Pariah) Description: A look back at Satan, who also went by Blind Fury and Pariah at certain points in the career after releasing an amazing first album and getting largely overlooked due to their name. Join me as I take a look at the music and the albums of one of the most consistently awesome NWOBHM bands, featuring Brian Ross on vocals, Graeme English on bass, Sean Taylor on drums, and the dynamic duo of Steve Ramsey and Russ Tippins on guitar.
