This is a topic for which I’m no expert, but others on the panel will be. Martin sure knows his NWOBHM! Guaranteed, we will see some cool heavy metal album covers tonight on the Contrarians. Looking forward to it.
My Contrarians appearances to date:
- Minimalist cover art
- Brown album covers
- Yellow album covers
- Albums with Fire and Explosions
- Spaceships! Aliens! Robots!
- This Album Cover is Hell!
- Toys & Games
- Dreaming in Stereo: Beds & Sleep on album covers
- Favourite Bands…WORST Album Covers
- They Swapped Covers!
- Great Album Covers From Bands We Despise
Watch live and comment! Martin always tries to address the comment section.

This will be interesting. I don’t know a ton about it either, but I’d pick On Through the Night by Def Leppard as that is considered NWOBHM and I drew that cover for art class as well.

Sounds interesting, Mike. When I first got into Maiden I did some research on the NWOBH for context (and also as influence on Metallica), but I’m sure I barely scratched the surface. Henry.

Cool, Henry! Martin is truly an expert so this will be a good one for me to just learn. I did pick some cool stuff, so I’m looking forward to seeing them. I think there are 5 of us tonight. Grant, Jamie, Martin, John C and me.
