Radium (UK) - Angel of Fear

Some more NWOBHM, the song Angel of Fear by Radium, a NWOBHM band from Nottingham, UK that was formed in 1980 and only released one rare EP in 1981 called Through the Smoke, which only 500 copies were pressed. Radium was also part of the "EAST MIDLANDS BAND CO-OPERATIVE" along with Race Against Time, Hell (UK), and Paralex.

Used to see 'em as teenagers in the back-room at the Imperial. Come out pissed, with ears ringing for days. Good times :)

Hey, The Imperial. Those were the days. I've got this EP ... for 'Dusty Roads'. Remember they had to borrow my brother's Amp when John V blew his up !

One of the pub bands of the time used to do a cover of Paranoid, and had a guitarist that wore 'ridgies' rather than spandex and straight leg jeans...

Haha, I just found out that my dad was a roadie for them as well! Didn't know he was such a hipster ;)

[@dudeskinus]

Andy Meehan ( the guitarist) is my dad!

[@ObscureStuff420]

Your dad is awesome, tell him I said so!

[@rockrabbitt]

Rougher side of NWOBHM.Some vein to Fist and Rage Against Time in sound.

[@michaliskonstantinides3127]

The sound is a joke but this is a brilliant song. Whatever happened along the road and heavy metal died in England I wonder..

[@BigScaryLobster]

I sent you a message :D

Sound quality poor but who cares, this band kicks fuckin' ass
