I loved Diamond head back in the day and always wondered how they panned out, amazed the lead singer style alive. He was the cookie cutter rock star, long hair and tight jeans 26" waist, bulge in the front and a drug habit..................The band musically haven't faltered alas the vocals are shot now................
😂😂😂 The world wouldn't have KNOWN these guys if it wasn't for Metallica. Metallica's cover was WAAAAAY more powerful, and better, too. Metallica owns it, now 😂😂😂 For that matter, Last Caress as well.
Okay,okay! This vocalist may have nothing on Sean Harris, but he was the one Brian Tatler could find to resurrect the band and this singer is certainly better than no singer at all...
No offense intended to the vocalist, he has a David Cassidy sounding voice, not typical of a metal frontman. However, that's what makes this Diamondhead! If you see past the Metallica version and listen to this for what it is (or actually for what it was, as it was 1st)in it's own right, it is awesome.
Is he the original singer of Diamond Head?, because his voice sounds like the original voice of Diamond Head's singer. Is he original singer of the british band? I ask this because there are people who have similar voices, and maybe he can be one of that examples.
Dude did you ever listen to the metallica version, Kirk did play the solo live, no need to say that He wrote and played much more difficult guitar solos.
The original version of the diamond head is not the metallica . If the guy does not make a serious pose male voice and makes the song is bad ... narrow-minded!
I was wondering about the Accept flag... Where's their video?? Lol imma be looking for it. I'm also trying to learn what year this was, didn't see it in description.
Ball Ripper Pull out Kill ‘Em All. Under ever song title , in the liner notes, you will find the song credits, which you’ll find who wrote the song. Under Am I Evil, and Blitzkrieg, you will find that the credits do not go to Hetfield, Mustaine, Hammett, Ulrich,or Burton, but to Diamond Head and Blitzkrieg, respectively. It really is that easy, as to just reading the liners.
if anyone's listened to the original you'll know that vocals were never meant to be growly like James fuckfield made them as good as Metallica's version is it has no feel what so ever compared to diamond heads version
Max Brand Bolero features in a number of classic rock/metal songs..Purples 'Child in time', Sabbaths 'Black Sabbath'(ending), Zeps 'how many more times' (middle section)..and of course Becks Bolero..to name a few.
Fuck honestly Brian tatler is a guitar legend full respect to him /,,/ but nick tart kinda blows it too bad Sean Harris left. They had possibly the most influential band in the nwobhm, the fist break up fucked it up plus that they recorded under their own label. However in doing so they created one of the best records ever. The white album.
before they were ever metallica they used to go around covering Dimond head songs, but they never told people they were covers, they use to pretend the songs were thers, they also stole budgie songs too. In the 80s nobody had a clue who the brittish metal bands were in san fransisco. 1976 Dimond head was formed 1981 Metalica was formed
Mitten im Song 2 Werbeanzeigen???? Das ist selbst für Google reichlich dreist. Aber der Song ist trotzdem genial, und um Lichtjahre besser als die schnöde Kopie von Metallica.
They were just lazy. It takes hard work to become a worldwide star. And anyway, they wouldn't be such a cult band if they had toured _all_ the time, would they? :D
What a prick..........................Try grow up nut sack. Without Lars and Co there would be no Megadeth, Exodus, Anthrax want me go on?.........Lars covers the biggest drumming job in metal adequately your a fuckin sheep who listens to all other critique. Use your own judgement if you can instead of following.
I don't always listen to Diamond Head, but when I do, so does the whole neighborhood..
Did you know how Metallica became famous
How this band never made it big beggers belief. Classic song absolutely brilliant.
I'm hoping the audience knows this is the original band. Metallica covered them.
yup, also it's electric is a cover
Rodrigo Grudina wrong lol

Very much an underrated band that should have gone a lot further than they have.
fantastic upload brilliant song awesome band
The ultimate heavy metal tune off all time , !fact ! Probably the first as well , absolutely magnificent 🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟
One of Brian’s better live solos! 🤘🏼😆🤘🏼
Great version!
Any Diamond Head record contains more great riffs than most bands entire catalog.
06:14 Great Brian Tatler!!! 🤘
Diamond Head forever...NWOBHM second...Those were the days...!!!!!!!!!
What a great drummer!!!
The most evil sound of NWOBHM era. Am I evil is really iconic tune!

Que chingoneria !!!!!
Baterista parecendo uma locomotiva a vapor. Força total toca muito
Yeah!!! We are going to play with them!
Okay,okay! This vocalist may have nothing on Sean Harris, but he was the one Brian Tatler could find to resurrect the band and this singer is certainly better than no singer at all...
whole band sounds good !
Are you evil? And the People say : yeeess._. ... Is YEEESSS IIII AMMMM, GRETTING FROM VENEZUELA, SORRY FOR MY ENGLISH
if pentatonic and wah had a poster child Kirk hammett would be it
Not a patch on Sean Harris vocals !!!
He sucks
Awesome
No offense intended to the vocalist, he has a David Cassidy sounding voice, not typical of a metal frontman. However, that's what makes this Diamondhead! If you see past the Metallica version and listen to this for what it is (or actually for what it was, as it was 1st)in it's own right, it is awesome.
Diamond Head playing it in Eb!! That's new. Think they're back playing it in standard tuning now.
That's only my former window cleaner Rob Mills on rhythm guitar! Now plying his trade in tribute bands 'Muse Inc' and the 'Hot Red Chilli Peppers'. :)
Problably the coolest former window cleaner ever.
Keren 🤘🤘
this is Nick Tart, took over from Sean Harris 2004/5
The drummer is tough
who is the band of background song in 8:30 ? the riff is amazing!!
La batería está muy bien ecualizada. Se escucha muy bien
The battery is well equalized. You hear very well
Batería No es battery es drums
Fucking ace band love Diamond Head
Savage
wow real good
so good. whyd they not become widespread successful?
lilahdog 568 these guys are like hydrox and metallic is like Oreo. Hydrox came around earlier but Oreos somehow rose above hydrox'.
lilahdog 568 they changed styles too often.
man This but with Hetfield's 1983 voice (Kill em All) would be so damn awesome! but thi still sounded badass! \m/
no.
this is original this am i evil this is diamond head \m/
Super original.
Am I Evil? Yes I Am!
Epic
wish I can turn it up even louder
salute to the originals....
Oh so nasty and dirty love it..... i can see how keith buckley is influenced by tge diamond heads frontman makes alot of sense now
Jesse Eisenberg is playing bass for Diamond Head!
What kind of wha is guitarist using?
Thanks
SOLO 6:10
Is he the original singer of Diamond Head?, because his voice sounds like the original voice of Diamond Head's singer. Is he original singer of the british band? I ask this because there are people who have similar voices, and maybe he can be one of that examples.
This is a different singer, Sean Harris was the original vocalist.
Eric Rivera oh wow
This lead solo is so mad Kirk Hammett would never dream to play it live!
Dude did you ever listen to the metallica version, Kirk did play the solo live, no need to say that He wrote and played much more difficult guitar solos.
Oh he did
anyway, what's the songs name in the end. the one in the end not am i evil.
???????????????????
Beyond hardcore🤟🤟🤟🤟🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🛸👽☠
nwobhm..🔥😎🔥
What a peformenxe
BadAss
The original version of the diamond head is not the metallica . If the guy does not make a serious pose male voice and makes the song is bad ... narrow-minded!
Why is there a finnish flag in sweden rock
Finns are a proud people!!! Lol (rightfully so)
I was wondering about the Accept flag... Where's their video?? Lol imma be looking for it. I'm also trying to learn what year this was, didn't see it in description.
Are you sure? He looks similar.
Gotta love that Accept flag that dude keeps waving 6:55
EXCELLENT !! But not the singer :(
For this idiots
Metallica cover "Am I Evil?" Original is Diamond Head from 1979
Wait! didn't they cover this from metallica?
say thanks to Metallica for cover this and stop cry haters
@Falc0n Productions I looked it up. They covered metalica dude.
@Ball ripper not everything you see on the internet is true.
Ball Ripper Pull out Kill ‘Em All. Under ever song title , in the liner notes, you will find the song credits, which you’ll find who wrote the song. Under Am I Evil, and Blitzkrieg, you will find that the credits do not go to Hetfield, Mustaine, Hammett, Ulrich,or Burton, but to Diamond Head and Blitzkrieg, respectively. It really is that easy, as to just reading the liners.
Very sabbathish in the beginning.
yes i fucking am!!!!!!!!
And the diamond head of 20 18 are not this diamond head
I have to admit metallicas version is Dope too!
if anyone's listened to the original you'll know that vocals were never meant to be growly like James fuckfield made them as good as Metallica's version is it has no feel what so ever compared to diamond heads version
Jacob Hammond And I wanted to hit like...
Indeed!!!
Marte .... o portador da guerra asmr
How can people think hetfield is better. This is the original version and The vocals kills it
7 years later and I totally agree. The original is almost a love song(loving himself) which makes it even more sinister
..................................... dam,, these mf's tore this shit up jack! Killer. \,,\
Just one thing missing.
am I a fucking evil? Yes I am!!
Metallica brought me here
Mix some Holst and Ravel....add some menacing riffs and play LOUD!!!.....metal!!!!!
+metafis HAHA! Never noticed the bolero in there. :)
Max Brand
Bolero features in a number of classic rock/metal songs..Purples 'Child in time', Sabbaths 'Black Sabbath'(ending), Zeps 'how many more times' (middle section)..and of course Becks Bolero..to name a few.
I prefer Zappa's version best :)
Fuck honestly Brian tatler is a guitar legend full respect to him /,,/ but nick tart kinda blows it too bad Sean Harris left. They had possibly the most influential band in the nwobhm, the fist break up fucked it up plus that they recorded under their own label. However in doing so they created one of the best records ever.

wtf are diamond head younger than metallica !?!?!
before they were ever metallica they used to go around covering Dimond head songs, but they never told people they were covers, they use to pretend the songs were thers, they also stole budgie songs too. In the 80s nobody had a clue who the brittish metal bands were in san fransisco. 1976 Dimond head was formed 1981 Metalica was formed
So much heavier than the original song! :O. :D
I'm not sure, but Metallica looks a little bit different in this vid. Even Lars got Hairs again! :-))
Biergärtner 4,9% i see james lost his guitar
wtf. how is he a vocalist
Find an earlier recording; his voice is toast now, but he was significantly better years ago.
Your frigging ears are shot arsage.
The best song for talibans! :D
Mitten im Song 2 Werbeanzeigen???? Das ist selbst für Google reichlich dreist. Aber der Song ist trotzdem genial, und um Lichtjahre besser als die schnöde Kopie von Metallica.
LA MONDÁ..
This is NOT the original singer.
AM I EVIL! YES I AM!!!!
I see other comments about the singer... was he just having an off day maybe? Just sounds weak compared to the rest of the band.
Awesome before Metallica!
Super Bad voice to a great song
I love this versión rey original diamond head, please dont compare with metallica
No idea swedes liked metal.
Thx Metallica for cover this and stop cry haters
JamesLR well diamond head was already famous before metallica covered it
Metallica who ?
Oh please you obviously heard of them then or you would not assimilate their cover version with this song you douche.
Sorry to say, but Mustaine's solo was much better
They were just lazy. It takes hard work to become a worldwide star. And anyway, they wouldn't be such a cult band if they had toured _all_ the time, would they? :D
Great cover guys :) the original is better though, the guy just couldn't get hetfields vocals right.
These guys are the original. Metallica covered them.
vocals need SOME work though lol
The singer doesn't sound evil at all.. James does
Lars finally learned how to play drums oh wait that isn't lars hasaaa
What a prick..........................Try grow up nut sack. Without Lars and Co there would be no Megadeth, Exodus, Anthrax want me go on?.........Lars covers the biggest drumming job in metal adequately your a fuckin sheep who listens to all other critique. Use your own judgement if you can instead of following.
I'm not liking how his voice changed. It was bluesy sounding but now sounds like a hillbilly
Fantastic instrumental, weak vocalist, he is not at the level of the rest of the band.
It's metal, not Adele...
Clabbeman Diamond Head Singer sucks as much as Adele.
metallica's version is better
Fuck that
