	Speed metal - Psychology Central
		The first Speed metal song is probably Deep Purple's Highway Star, from the 1972 LP Machine Head, though earlier efforts with a similar mindset include Black Sabbath's Paranoid (from the album of that name, 1970) and also Deep Purple's Speed King (from the 1970 In Rock LP) and Fireball (From the 1970 Fireball LP).
		Speed metal is a genre of heavy metal music that is similar to thrash metal, but tends to be more melodic and show less influence of punk music.
		However, it was Highway Star that introduced into heavy metal both the extreme speed of the single-note riffing and also the complex guitar and keyboard solos (performed by Ritchie Blackmore and Jon Lord, respectively), borrowed from progressive rock of the 70s, but heavily influenced by classical music.

	Amazon.ca: Sound of the Beast: The Complete Headbanging History of Heavy Metal: Books
		There is little argument that heavy metal began in earnest with Black Sabbath (though the Beatles' "Helter Skelter" is considered by some to be the first heavy metal song), and Christe holds to convention and begins his metal timeline in early 1970.
		First of all, the section on the 1970's is only like 20 pages long, he does only one short chapter on hair metal, which isn't my favorite, but helped put metal in the mainstream in the '80's.
		If Christe is to be faulted, it is on the grounds of hero worship: he's a metal fan, scribe (a music writer living in Brooklyn) and practitioner (in a digital metal band called Black Noerd), and readers might wish for more critical analysis about the culture of fans.

	Heavy metal umlaut - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The heavy metal umlaut is never referred to by the term diaeresis in this usage, nor is it intended to affect the pronunciation of the band's name.
		A heavy metal umlaut (aka röck döts) is an umlaut over a letter in the name of a heavy metal band.
		The first gratuitous use appears to have been by the Blue Öyster Cult in 1970.

	Heavy metal music
		Stoner metal, with its heavy, sometimes slow and sludgily distorted riffs and the obvious influence of psychedelic music, creates a sound that is strongly reminiscent of the 1970s metal of Black Sabbath, Budgie, and similar bands.
		Heavy metal is an evolutionary product of pop, blues and "classical" music with a generally accepted life cycle of 20 years, from approximately 1970 to 1990.
		Goth Metal fuses the bleak, icy atmospherics of goth rock with the loud guitars and aggression of heavy metal, finding the middle ground between the two styles in a melodramatic sense of theater and lyrical obsessions with religion and horror.

	Perspectives in Numismatics - Medieval European Coinage
		SZEGO, A. The Coinage of Medieval Austria, 1156-1521, 1970.
		Coinages were reduced in western and central Europe to imitatives of the old Roman or the still functioning East Roman (Byzantine) Empires.
		An example is the coinage of the boy king, Edward V of England, whose issues can only be differentiated from those of his father, Edward IV, by the initial mark of a boar's head, the personal sign of his uncle and protector, later Richard III.

	Markusen Metal Studios, Ltd.
		Working with copper tubing and other metals allows him to combine his training in silversmithing with his years, 1970 - 1976, as a blacksmith.
		A reactive metal like copper that can be heat oxidized into a rainbow of colors or changed with acid and salt gives him an unlimited palette to create rich patinas and draw on his background in painting.
		The ability to treat red-hot metal as a fluid medium to be shaped and formed like pliable plastic continues to fascinate and challenge noted metalsmith Thomas Roy Markusen.

	Metal Reviews - Metal Coven Webzine - Metal Reviews - GlenRock - 3 Minutes Of Silence
		Hell, "3 Minutes Of Silence" is just barely metal and has more in common with 1970's hard rock than anything else.
		Granted France is a Celtic country, and I guess they technically would be considered a Celtic Metal band in terms of Geography, but their sound has nothing to do with Celtic metal as most people in the music scene know it.
		They do get a tad metal here and there in a 1980's cock rock sort of way, and they have a heavy blues influence, but they just can't make it come together in any sort of way which is sad because all of the musicians seem very professional.

	Doom Metal
		Doom metal, the heaviest form of metal today and its been that way since Black Sabbath invented it with their first album in 1970, here is a documentation of how it all came about and what have happened afterwards.
		With Sabbath the term heavy metal came up along with Judas Priest, both bands became the godfathers of a scene that started in the early 1980´s.
		In England around that time was 3 bands that should be mentioned here It was Witchfinder General, Angelwitch and Witchfynde all 3 bands were totally inspired by Sabbath especially Witchfinder General.

	OtakuBoards - Metal
		Metal news: Children of Bodom has revealed the title of their forthcoming album, which will be called "Are You Dead Yet?".
		Yeah, those guys are definately metal, but in the old school of metal.
		As far as Parameaecium, they can still be considered "Unblack" because a) they have a strong black metal influence, and b) lyrics based, if loosely, on Christianity.

	The Progressive Pages / www.progpages.com
		In almost all everyday situations, mention of the term "progressive rock" or "progressive metal" will result in blank stares that generally lead to the question, "What is progressive music?" Newcomers to the genre, myself included at the time, seem to frequently ask this question in prog discussions.
		Since their time (the 1970's was the height of prog's place in society) progressive music has kind of fallen into obscurity.
		Sure, prog bands put a very large emphasis on the music, but more often than not you'll see wonderful vocals in front of the music.

		So the bankers made it known to Kennedy (or at least failed to prevent if from becoming known) that the silver would henceforth be removed from our coins, and replaced with base metals.
		New coins would be issued, which, aside from a thin silver veneer, would be made of worthless base metal.
		Now, by 1970, the bankers could see that America had learned to live without its gold, and that no one (at least no one with even the slightest political power) had made so much as a token effort to retrieve it.

	Black Sabbath - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The album was produced by Ernie C of the pioneering rap metal group Body Count.
		The album also marked the inclusion of Quartz's guitarist-turned-keyboardist Geoff Nicholls (Nicholls has not been consistently credited as an official member, and has often been forced to play live shows from backstage for supposed aesthetic purposes, but he has co-written many songs and has stayed with Black Sabbath through all subsequent incarnations).
		The albums in this section are official "Band sponsored" albums, and are released with the cooperation and authorization of the band that existed at the time of the release.

		New metal fans will run to the music store not only because of the knowledge gained from this volume, but also because of the enthusiastic (though sometimes a little overwrought) way the author shares it.
		If Christe is to be faulted, it is on the grounds of hero worship: he's a metal fan, scribe (a music writer living in Brooklyn) and practitioner (in a digital metal band called Black Noerd), and readers might wish for more critical analysis about the culture of fans.

	Evaluation of Metro's 1970 GTX/Sports Satellite rear chrome trim
		On ALL the 1970 Sports Satellites and GTXs I have seen, this piece is fastened to the trunk by metal clips on both ends and rest of the trim is attached to the trunk deck lid by 42" of double sided tape that is centered on the trim piece.
		If you have been working on a 1970 GTX or Sports Satellite for any length of time you will have soon realized that at least one set of chrome trim is probably damaged or missing on your car.
		All GTX and Sports Satellite trunk lids had a factory hole on each outer edge where the end clips were bolted, using a special covered nut.

	Corpse paint - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Celtic Frost were perhaps the first death metal or black metal group to use such makeup, but there are earlier precedents: The Misfits and King Diamond of Mercyful Fate used similar makeup in the early 1980's, as did KISS and Alice Cooper in the 1970's.
		Corpse paint (sometimes a single word, corpsepaint) is a style of black -and- white makeup used extensively by black metal bands during live concerts and photo shoots as part of their imagery of evil and decay.
		Despite the possible ' glam' roots of corpse paint, the designs used by many black metal musicians are supposed to make them look more evil, inhuman, or corpse -like (ergo, the term corpse paint).

		In the mid-1970's, on the threshold of our conversion from hot metal typesetting to electronic photocomposition, we employed nearly 8,200 persons, more than 1,000 of whom were in the composition area alone.
		In the 1960's we began some of the printing industry's earliest use of electronic photocomposition, digitizing data as a typesetting process.
		In fact, over the past three decades we have built a core capability for electronic information and communications services to support Congress's information needs.

	No Life Til Metal - CD Gallery - Trapeze
		Muscially, "Medussa" was not really a heavy metal album, although probably heavier than much of what was out in 1970 save for Led Zeppelin.
		However, Trapeze sounds more like early Whitesnake or even Bad Company at their heaviest, but most often have a more bluesy, randb sound going for them.
		Glen's vocals sound great, even this early on, but what really makes this album is the extended guitar jams in tracks like "Black Cloud" and "Seaful."

		I even know that the US War Industries Board encouraged the assimilation of the bra in 1917 by encouraging women to stop buying corsets, thereby freeing up nearly sixty million pounds of the metal used in them.
		By the nineteenth century in Europe, breasts were being pressed together and thrust upward by means of whalebone-fortified corsets.
		And I know that during the 1920s, a Russian immigrant by the name of Ida Rosenthal founded Maidenform with her husband William.

		Corsets are only cute when they arn't made of metal wiring but something stretchy.
		I have many shirts that are sarcastic to my own principles and thus I love to wear them.

	Mythra - Influential New Wave Of British Heavy Metal band
		At the tail end of the 1970's Mythra were swimming against the Punk Rock tide to satisfy the legions of rock fans in the North East of England who didn't subscribe to the claim that Heavy Metal was dead.
		Following in their wake, it wasn't long before a tide of new 'Heavy Metal' releases issued from the two North East studios of the time, the 'brand new' Gaurdian and the established Impulse Studios - this prompted the 'Sounds' tag NWOBHMNED or New Wave of British Heavy Metal - North East Division.
		This site is devoted to the cult, influential, New Wave of British Heavy Metal band Mythra and the seminal Death and Destiny recordings for which they were renowned.
