No clue so need clues!

 

Pedigree? meaning does this MSOTW come from a bigger band?  and then if so, is this a solo effort?  Guitarist or other?  American or not?  When was this artist most prominent? 

[Jon]

1. No

2. n/a

3. n/a

4. Not American

5. Maybe during NWOBHM...if you know ALL the bands

[Scott]

WIll have to pore over the NWOBHM group page and see if I can hear somethign because, once again, I have ZERO idea on the MSOTW..

 

Badlands on the other hand is pretty goll darn good.  Nice post!

[Jon]

Thanks! A lot of effort went it it, as you can see.

[Niels (Mod)]

"Rumblin' Train" is a GREAT track!! This was one of the best albums coming out in 1989, together with "Gretchen goes to Nebraska".

 

Hmmm, NWOBHM, huh? ARE the band from that periode? Is the SONG from that periode? 

[Jon]

The band is from that period. The song is from a few years ago though, their comeback album.

[Scott]

way out of my realm of bands...  best I could guess is Saxon but that cant be right...  gotta have more clues, this time dont be subtle...  hahaha, give us something to work with..  like...

 

related artists or peers... 

bands they toured with and the era they were most prominent...

did they have hits?

 

[Jon]

Related artists or peers: Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, Saxon, Angelwitch  

Toured with Thin Lizzy, early 1980s they were...ummm...well, not really prominent but were known in Jersey (UK, not the one in the states)

Did they have hits? No

 

Obscure hint: Shares the same name as the title to a Tom Cruise movie

[RJhog (Admin)]

All The Right Moves????

[Jon]

Oooooh...no.

[Scott]

The only one that I know is a bands name is "Valkyrie".  A Band Ive never ever heard of until the Tom Cruise clue forced me into the Zune marketplace to double check a hunch... pure SWAG however...

[Jon]

Not Valkyrie. It's an 80's movie. AND NOT "ALL THE RIGHT MOVES"!
