I think this page (thanx again Keir!) deserves a thread of its own:
http://www.45toursderockfrancais.net/ro ... lehard.htm
It includes (almost) every French Hard Rock/Metal 7" released from the late 70's to the early 90's, with cover scans and a 30-second taster from each single, many of which I've never seen or heard about before. Some sound instantly awful, some seem great, the majority of them could be either way since the first 30 seconds of a song doesn't really say that much about the overall quality.
So, which of these have you heard, or even own? Recommendations? Any of those clips got you on a 30-second headbanging frenzy on first listening? Know of any ones not included on the page? etc...
Let's have another thread where we dig deep, Deep, DEEP into the Olde Metal underground!
