There is no unequivocal opinion about the first music album in the speed metal genre. It is believed that this was Metallica's debut album Kill 'em All in 1983, but in fact the genre was finally formed on the first album of the Canadian band Exciter Heavy Metal Maniac, which was released in the same 1983, but a little earlier than Metallica's debut album. Also Killing Is My Business… and Business Is Good! and Peace Sells… but Who’s Buying? by Megadeth. Speed metal also includes the album Metal on Metal (1982) by the Canadian band Anvil. Speed metal traditionally includes the band Motörhead, the early albums Blind Guardian (Battles of Fear, Follow the Blind), Helloween (Walls of Jericho), Running Wild period Under Jolly Roger - Masquerade, the first album Metallica Kill 'em All, the first album Anthrax Fistful of Metal, early works Iced Earth, Rage, music by Judas Priest from the Painkiller album period, as well as the bands Living Death, Scanner, Agent Steel, Grave Digger, Sacred Steel, Angel Dust, Chroming Rose, Annihilator, works by Riot (Thundersteel album)
@@F.I.O. yes but don't make a confusion between speed metal and thrash metal..the albums you cite about kill em all , killing is my business and fistful of metal are definitely in the thrash category which is for sure an evolution of speed metal.

Agent Steel were like the visitors from all the places they told us about, in their songs and were here on earth to give us their signal... All their music! Fuck Yeah!
I was there, I was 16 years old. Atomkraft, Onslaught, Nuclear Assault and Agent Steele. I specifically went to see Nuclear Assault, their first time in the UK. The gig was called The Longest Day as it was on 21st June , the longest day of the year.
So was i,i remember it well with mixed feelings,got threatened by a skinhead with a knife,could have gone really badly,plus remember coming out of that gig with the longest headache, thought agent steel were the best band there!
En mí país eso jamás se conoció ,y muchísimos años esperando ,Calidad infinita musical y es mi único motivo de seguir , con la farsa ,y comediante vida gracias parse
Damn! I wish I was. We miss heaps of good stuff in Australia. The Nuclear Assault “Game Over” album changed my life for the better, my art teacher hated me playing that in class \m/
Did John Cyrus really get abducted by aliens? I remember reading that somewhere. I must be one of the few dedicated Aussie fans, and I’m so glad they’re still going
I never knew until recently that James Murphy was the touring guitarist here. I heard an interview of his where he said that he was playing this tour. It was Before he joined Death. His hair looks different here. Either he dyed his hair black, or he is wearing a wig. He normally had lighter hair and it was more curly. I can still tell it's him, it's definitely his face. lol
Is James Murphy the one in the left (audience point of you)? Cause I don’t think it’s the guy in the right but who knows. I just found out myself about his association with Agent Steel. You learn something new everyday. Still one of my favorite guitarists next to Greg Howe. Been a fan since 1990 with Death’s- Spiritual Healing.
Ive had the same confusion, I knew James was there.... but where??? (guy on left doesnt look like him to me) Supposedly this was James 1st real live performance.
The guitarists get going, then the singer comes in totally out of sync/tune with the rest of the band, says a few words, screams, says a few words, screams, repeat, repeat, repeat and doesnt try to follow anyone's timing, even the drummer's. These guys may be skilled individually but their styles do not gel well together, they're all off on their own shredding banging and screaming, seemingly unconcerned with trying to develop something that works/blends with any of the other members - its just 4 guys slamming out a mess.
Your Sheryl Crow vid is enough to prove to me that you are definitely a hipster. The Queens Of The Stone Age vids don't help either. You must have your undies on too tight sweety...unbunch em okay!
They weren't popular at all in America..I thought agents of steel is an important record in thrash history but only like 2 people I know ever knew of them..shame
Power and energy. It’s Agent Steel. Best speed metal band for all times and of the world

Speed Metal very underrated genre and much better than thrash, death and black metal

Beate Speed Metal 80er Jahre
savršenstvo
Pure power from Hades
Sounds like Queensryche from The Warning era.
Honestly moreso than any other 80's band they managed to perch themselves right on the fence between power and speed metal.
What's with the audience?
20 people + -?
This is a top notch video, i'd kill for having been there. 😬
Hammersmith Odeon was fixed seating at the time and security would not allow you to move to the front.
After this they got arrested for lighting fireworks on a teenage boy in a motel room. It was apparently an s/m ritual.
Great Show! IS this available on DVD ? Thanks!
yes, on ebay.
James Murphy well done the job but I really miss Bernie Versailles on this tour. He is better guitarist for Agent Steel.
bernie is better .
Is this concert available on blu Ray or DVD?
Yeah, it's on DVD
I was there.
Onslaught and Agent Steel were much better. AtomKraft not so good.
The longest day
Who are the guitarists here?
James Murphy, Richard bates AND the other one Is unknown for me

only the singer and drummer are band members, all the others are guest musicians here
