Manilla Road
Musiker - Heavy Metal
http://www.manillaroad.net/

It was the 1970′s and Epic Metal was not even a genre of music yet. For that matter the term Heavy Metal did not even refer to music but the French based fantasy magazine Métal Hurlant. The phrase Heavy Metal was just barely showing up in the works of a very few bands. Steppenwolf had used the phrase heavy metal thunder in their hit song “Born to Be Wild”. But in this case I believe the reference was to loud motorcycles. But there was always a more multifaceted meaning springing up in my head when I thought of the words. The obvious motorcycle reference was there but the French artists that worked on the magazine, that eventually made it’s way into the United States under the name Heavy Metal, obviously thought of the meaning in more of an adventure/epic fantasy way. There was one series within the magazine called “Heilman” that was about a Punk / Rock star, of the future, that was a clone or android type character. When he performed he wore leather, boots, chains and metal spikes and studs and brandished a wicked looking black electric guitar. It was like looking at an artists conception of what Rob Halford was to look like in the years to come. But at this point in music history nobody was dressing like that on stage yet (as far as I know). Halford had graduated from looking like a long haired hippie rock star to a short haired, clean cut business man wearing suits, even on album covers. But it was very soon that the tides and styles changed and started developing into what was going to be the standard for a whole new name for heavy, loud and evil sounding hard rock. It was the birth of Heavy Metal.
