I like for example Blind Fury, Bolt Thrower, Deep Switch, Deliverance, Egypt, Marshall Law, Masque, Preyer, Sabbat, Sacrilege, Skyclad, The Blood and Wild Pussy.
Would like to know more really good ones. Especially those that doesn't sound like a nwobhmetallers who woke up too late (like shocksplit or the scrubs) not that I don't like them but because I'm interested about how much the scene varied soundwise. And I secretly wish to find more awsome bands with
balls like Preyer
Still.. every post-nwobhm band counts and you can name your favourites that started out as nwobhm but turned to something else later on like Satan, Cloven Hoof and uhh (it seems like) Hell...
Ok, I will write down some bands that are not mentioned here, and coming on my mind in random order right now:
Prowler, BattleAxe, Excalibur, Omega, Grim Reaper, Holocaust(only their second era), Fair Warning, Traitor’s Gate, Dealer, Chaser, Scarab, Trident, Charger, War Machine, Voyager(ok, the keys annoy me, but, anywayz, good riffs exist there also!), Syar, MainEEAxe, etc...
P.S: Prowler, Omega and War Machine are closer to US Steel I could say...
...OK, I'm bored....

Elixir, Virtue, Scarab, Tröjan, Atomkraft and all that early crusty stuff like ONSLAUGHT, BOLT THROWER, SACRILEGE and WOLFPACK... yum.

IMO Some of these bands would be considered borderline NWOBHM

I'd call Grim Reaper, BattleAxe pure NWOBHM. Sure, those bands also released stuff after the initial NWOBHM but by that definition you can call too much NWOBHM bands post NWOBHM steel.

yeah, I was refering to their post-NWOBHM period here, just to be on topic, and for no other reason...

just the first Xentrix album...everything from Deathwish, and i must say "the force" album from Onslaught is among my top 5 UK metal albums (taking out the whole NWoBHM) but still"in search of sanity" is some classy piece of thrash with awsome vocal parts,sometimes really understimated
...
and btw, can someone sell me whichever album from Blood Money please!
seriously!

Never heard this one. If I remember correctly this is an Ebony release and thus easy to find.

Yeah, Ebony it is. Been looking eyes half open for this for a good price.
I must praise "Blaze Of Obscurity" by Pariah. That album is a monster, veryvery close to 10 out of ten points.

Agreed 100%. That's the first thing that came into my mind... Sounds a bit like a drum machine though, doesn't it? Either way, I don't care.

Does anybody likes Rankelson? "Hungry For Blood" is a solid album.
Satanic Rites "Which Way The Wind Blows" is a killer! Great Melodic metal, very enjoyable.
And if you like traditional White metal, you should stick with Force 3 and their only album "Warrior of Light", I would call it a nice, decent album.

The guitar is incredible, not sure if it's a drum machine.. either way I don't care either!

A Sultan's Ransom is the best thing I've heard that fits the thread topic, ultra-steel, amazing.
