Hey Guys,
I came across a couple new nwobhm bands (for me at least) recently. I just wanted to know if any of you guys have have/heard their stuff, and if you have them if its possible to upload/rip it for me. I'd be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Black Tiger - 1983 demo
Dragonfly - 1980/81 demo
Paralex - 1982/84/86 demo
Deep Machine - 1980/82 demo
Robespierre - 1983 demo

Hi pzman, Welcome to the site...
There is actually a specific forum for mp3 sharing on here but you have to post a certain amount to access it, I think you'd likely find people here will have most if not all of these demos. The thing is you'll probably have to post a bit more to access that forum. Just make sure you don't post pointless replies to access it as you'll probably get kicked off for leeching.
There are some great Paralex videos on youtube of demo material Kenny, some songs better than the single stuff check them out.

Re: Some Obscure NWOBHM demos
Welcome pzman. I have some demos with DRAGONFLY, DEEP MACHINE ("The Wizard"!!!) and PARALEX. I'll upload them soon.
I think I've read this band name in the same sentence as 'Doom Metal' once. I'd REALLY like to know more.pzman wrote:Robespierre - 1983 demo

Not exactly doom metal, but it is dark and evil.DaN wrote:I think I've read this band name in the same sentence as 'Doom Metal' once. I'd REALLY like to know more.

all stuff to me are great!!!Dragonfly s all demos are fantastic if you like crossover metal and especially nwobhm.the demos of Deep machine are more straight metal and almost sure that you will like them..concerning Paralex ,is one of my favourite band,there is one demo that is similar to the sound of the ep ,the others are great ones too,but i still consider their ep one of the best from the era.We were supposed to release their demos but the last time changed their mind,too pitty as it is one of my favourite from the nwobhm movement.Robespierre is athree track demo if i am not mistaken and yes its a dark sound but metal,not doom.

I have 1-2 of the Deep Machine demos, pretty good stuff! Wonder why they never made it to the vinyl stage?
The Marquis de Sade and Virtue demos are indeed good 'uns. I also like alot of the stuff on the Smokin' Roadie demo. Apocalypse's demo is also pretty good as I recall (has an early version of one of their OMEGA tracks on it, 'the prophet' I think).

if you don't mind me bumping this thread here's the deal with these :
Deep Machine - pretty common stuff, only in bad quality. there were a couple of demos with the second lineup (Roger Marsden on vocals) which are pretty good, the later ones (with Tony Smith) are a bit glammier, but better produced. they later turned into glam metal act Strutt which released a couple of demos as well.
Black Tiger - very heavy for their time, the demo is from 1984 I think, the band was from Hull. nothing too special though.
Robespierre - this was most probably a joke project by some guys from Liverpool, rehearsal only band. the music is very heavy and savage, tracks are Die You Heathen, I Am a Cannibal, Backs to the Wall, Gates of Hell.
Dragonfly - had 13 demo tracks self released on a CDR some years ago, very limited, called Secret Demos or something like that. some good tracks, just like the EP.
Paralex - only the Gettin Somewhere demo was officially released. all tracks can be heard on the videos on youtube. the other sessions remain unheard.
the best demo bands remain Sanctus and Widow though !
