Hi first time viewer,poster yada yada..........
I have been playing guitar for about 15 years, really a blues guitarist by trade, but have now come back full circle to music I grew up on.............80s metal.
I am trying to broaden my influences while finding great bands to listen to at the same time. I have been on a huge Maiden kick and am trying to find some of the bands (beyond the easy ones) that might have had the greatest influence on them and thier musical style. Also might be interested in some of the lesser know bands that followed Maiden and their genre.
Appreciate it.
