CLOVEN HOOF - Reach For The Sky

- Опубликовано: 22 дек 2009
- 1979-1987 Cloven Hoof went through a few early line-up changes, including a brief spell with vocalist Steve Sammon, before settling on a steady line-up that would last their first few recordings. Theatrical from the beginning, the four band members took up pseudonyms after the four elements - David "Water" Potter, Steve "Fire" Rounds, Lee "Air" Payne and Kevin "Earth" Poutney. This line-up recorded the band's successful demo tape from 1982, along with The Opening Ritual EP, and Cloven Hoof. Following the release of their self-titled debut, David Potter left the band to be replaced by Rob Kendrick, who took up the "Water" pseudonym. This line-up only managed to record the live album Fighting Back, before splitting up completely soon after the release of the album. Lee Payne was the only member left, and soldiered on through the years. [edit]1988-1990 Lee Payne started the band again in 1988, hiring vocalist Russ North and guitarist Andy Wood from the split up band Tredegar along with drummer Jon Brown. With a whole new set of musicians in place, the band dropped the stage names and went on to record two more albums - 1988's Dominator and 1989's A Sultan's Ransom. Former member of Tredegar Lee Jones was brought to the band for the role of second guitarist soon after the release of these two albums, but contractual difficulties caused the band to split up in 1990. [edit]2001-2007 In the summer of 2001, Lee Payne began putting a new line-up together for the next reincarnation of Cloven Hoof when Andy Wood had phoned him about the contractual difficulties that had ultimately caused the band to split up for a whole decade. After a few years' work and failure to entice back any previous Hoof members, Eye of the Sun was recorded and released in 2006 with the help of studio musicians Matt Moreton on vocals, Andy Shortland on guitars, and Lynch Radinsky on drums. According to Payne, it was the first Cloven Hoof album to have been produced without any obstacles that plagued them in the 1980s, but even though he was proud of the album's successful production, he still wanted Russ North to provide his own vocals for it instead of Moreton's. Following the successful comeback release, the three hired musicians by Payne left once Russ North returned to the fold after finally taking care of the obstacles that prevented him from rejoining a few years earlier. A brief period of line-up fluctuation could be seen on the band's website over the following few months, with former member Jon Brown briefly listed as being back on board. Eventually the line-up seemed to settle with Mick Powell, a guitarist almost hired by Cloven Hoof in the early '80s. In another unannounced change, Jon Brown rejoined. [edit]2008 A collection of re-recorded songs The Definitive Part One was released in early 2008, with a new album to be called Throne of Damnation scheduled for release in 2009. Mick Powell played guitar and keyboards on The Definitive Part One but had left the band by the time it was released. Cloven Hoof continued for a few months as a four-piece again before Powell briefly rejoined in April 2008 and was eventually replaced by Christian Horton.

I'm 24 and I'm addicted to NWOBHM since I listened for the first time more than 15 years ago. Nothing beats traditional Heavy metal . Hail to Diamond Head, Saxon, Cloven Hoof, Dark Star, Battleaxe, Tyrant and many other that made my life better. I cannot thank them enough
Luís Martins Good on ya. Get the word out & convert more people in your age group!
HEY BUDDY !!@ 🤘😆🤘♣️♥️
ok kid, now learn we dont call it that way, its just music, relac
Listen: Randy, Virtue, Warlord
I’m 27 and I love this stuff I’m into wolf they are great edge of the world is a great album and crucifixion is great as well 🤘
The stars are our home
Roaming the galaxy
We’re free
Raiders from space
Star fighter zeros.
Out of the sun
Engage the enemy
We see
Planets in chains
Hell is for heroes.
We glide in our silver birds
Got to do or die
Soar on solar winds
Rage on high
As fire on silent metal wings
Out where the meteors fly
You and I.
Chorus
Reach for the sky
Reach for the sky
Reach for the sky
Reach for the sky
Trail to blaze
Glory and victory will be
In for the kill
Or wiped out forever.
Life is a dream
And death a reality to me
Star fleet in flames
But never surrender.
Dog fight till the end
Dive for the last time
Soar on solar winds
Rage on high
As fire on silent metal wings
Out where the meteors fly
You and I.
(Chorus)
love finding diamonds in the rough like this.
Half of the metal on my phone is rare stuff like this with some priest as well
If you haven't done so yet, also check their 1989 album "A Sultran's Ransom". Very good stuff.

The lyrics make me think of a Sci fi version of Aces High. Great obscure classic Heavy Metal!

awesome track solid riff, from new wave of british heavy metal band cloven hoof, just magic i love it. good vocals from the lead singer too. #nwobhmforever
Glad I found this hidden gem. Really great singer and the band is solid! Great song!
Kick ass man. Love finding bands like this at random
La mejor canción de Cloven Hoof y una de las mas épicas que ha dado la NWOBHM al mundo!
Excelente canción, saludos desde Chile.
Beautiful vocals
Loving it. This band is incredible. Go Lee!
I love the beginning riff! Reminds me a lot of Judas Priest's "Electric Eye".
im back and stuck in the early metals from 80 ties I love it
Esse som é lindo demais!!!
Tenía 15-16 años cuando comencé escuchando toda esta ola de heavy y la verdad influyó mucho en mis tiempos, larga al vida al heavy metal!
We glide in our silver birds
Got to do or die
Soar on solar winds
Rage on high
As fire on silent metal wings
Out where the meteors fly
You and I...Reach For The Sky!!!!

\m/
This song randomly popped up. And I absolutely fucking love it!!
Metal!!!
Fantastic songs!
Just discovered this gem.
Once long ago in 80-s I heard this band on Radio Free Europe. I cant find their record then. Now I hear them on youtube. And I am very glad to know that Lynch Radinsky was their drummer in 2006. Orlin Radinsky (nick named Lynch) was the best bulgarian metal drummer in late 80s, early 90s, then he emigrate to UK. He played in Bulgarian metal bands - Impulse, Accent. His foot is like a hoof (drummer joke), though, so this band Cloven Hoof is perfect for him.
WOW!!! A good blend of Judas Priest and Iron Maiden.....great song!
cloven hoof rules obscure HEAVY METAL
A buddy of mine, who was stationed in Germany w/the 11th ACR in the early 80s, turned me on to this band, Bullet, Killer, Impulse, Spitfire, & a bunch of other great stuff back then. He even made it to a Monsters of Rock show while he was stationed over there.
Acr?
@@rohan91ify Armored Cavalry Regiment. I was in 3rd ACR, aka the Brave Rifles.
@@PhlashRockinmann great thanks for the reply
@@rohan91ify I forget, sometimes, not everyone knows this stuff. Still confuses my mom when I use military time, haha.
@@PhlashRockinmann is it necessary for a person who wishes to join a branch like enginers or signals that he must have a basic knowledge of science
I agree. Not even close to the masterpieces on this album! People, the music today doesn't even deserve to spit-shine the boots of these artists from the Renaissance-esque period of N.W.O.B.H.M. Fortunately, I got hooked on said genre, and don't associate with today's "music" if that's what you want to call it! 18 years old and proud to be listening to N.W.O.B.H.M.!
Epic great workout music
Ever played something so good.
was great seeing them live
REACH FOR THE SKYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY dominator album indeed
Belíssima música.
Amazing
Wow this song is amazing
Fucking pure old school metal! \m/
Excellent hp
Surprisingly exellent 🤘😆🤘♥️♣️
Russ is a fine singer and does a good job, but the original version on Fighting Back with Rob Kendrick is actually even better! \m/
I love both versions equally, but Rob Kendrick has a very agile and light voice suited for the higher notes of the song. It's very much his song in that way.
NEW WAVE FOREVER!!
Wow epic!
Bought this back in the day! Forgot how good this is!!!
Que buen tema,joder!
Art
cool John Blanche artwork
MASTERS. ONE OF THE BEST SONGS EVER MADE
@@lommalos no u
@@lommalos grow up.
@@lommalos seems like your comment got deleted. Oh well i guess you really need to grow up.
@@lommalos you started by saying to Pablosky B. "stop do drugs please" the guy didnt said anything bad. If you dont like this band then keep that for yourself and stop shitting on others.
@@lommalos yeah yeah ok
Insane
Great song! Powerful vocals! Cool lyrics! Awesome Heavy Metal track! Sometimes reminds em SATAN!
The Russ North/Andy Wood era of Cloven Hoof was their best period,imo. "Dominator" and "A Sultan's Ransom" both rank among the greatest albums in Metal history! It's a shame that circumstances didn't allow this lineup to record more than just those two gems.
How come the vocals here sounds so much better? Is there an album missing on RUclips music?
Attention Cloven Hoof fans. The Hoof are touring North America for the FIRST TIME EVER September/October 2018. Visit their Facebook page for dates! facebook.com/clovenhoof1979/
Just because of this song, the
British Empire had and have a meaning
Goooooood si very cool
Greatest cloven golf
Cloven hoof
reach for the sky end keeper of the flame is greatest metal song ever!!!!!!
Έτσι είναι ρε καργιόλη
I sat here and listened to Black Sabbath's "Die Young" when I thought "uhm.. I've heard this bassline somewhere else."
Found it.
(I mean, it's not exact, but parts of it is definitely similar.)
You cannot go wrong with a band that slaps Blanche on their album cover.
Que joyita me acabo de descubrir!!! Heavy underground como de este tipo que me recomienden???
Virtue -we stand to fight
traitors gate - the devils takes the highroad

Thats one of the most chaotic descriptions of a band I ever read. If it was that chaotic, I can understand they never where great - even though they were great performers individually. Cool Music once again stops.

Iron maiden is the shit.
Cloven Hoof have a release before iron maiden so dont compare them to a later band
@@Zero-di9mz Iron Maiden's first release was the soundhouse tapes in 1979. Cloven Hoof's was a demo in 1982
The cover art is drawn by John Blanche who has done a lot of Warhammer and Warhammer 40k stuff.
hahaha! i just imagened someone screaming this in a high pinched voice
Wait, is that John Blanche's art on the cover?
BAAAAMMMMMMMMMM
