Episode 30 - Fight For Your Reich (ft. Scorpions, Grave Digger & Warlock)

<p>We may still be in lockdown - just (hopefully) - but it's time for the Sadmen to spread their wings and flit beyond the shores of old Blighty and shine the torch of enlightenment into a land far, far away. Well, a hop and a skip beyond Belgium, at any rate.</p> <p>This episode sees Mark, Richard and Steve taking a close look at three bands from the heart of the European rock and metal landscape: Germany.</p> <p>The Scorpions make their first appearance in the podcast as Richard blows the cobwebs off the band's third album, 1975's In Trance.</p> <p>Mark ignores the obvious choices and picks a band with a big reputation for cranking out big riffs - but a band that passed him by when they first came to prominence in the mid 80s: Grave Digger with their '86 effort War Games.</p> <p>And Steve takes the opportunity to spend a little time snuggled up with Warlock, led by his the Metal Queen, Doro Pesch, and their 1985 commercial breakthrough record True As Steel.</p> <p>Enjoy - and look out for our special epsiode featuring an extended interview with Doro which will be out in the next few days!</p> <p> </p> <p> </p>
