Description
In 1981 and 1982, the NWOBHM reached its peak, but by the end of 1984, it was all but over. This Means War: The Sunset Years of the NWOBHM explores what happened to metal in Great Britain during this period, with contributions from those who were there. Martin Popoff's oral history method brings together dozens of rockers to tell the story of the movement's maturity and demise. With detailed chronological entries and a wealth of historical images, this book serves as a conclusion to Wheels of Steel: The Explosive Early Years of the NWOBHM. The result is a comprehensive study of the NWOBHM's rise and fall, told in the words of those who lived it.
