Even though they came into conception at about the same time and shoes (1982, the Bay Area) as the speed alloy course, San Francisco originals Brocas Helm shared out completely a few thrash-like tendencies with neighbors Exodus, Metallica, et al. Instead, care similarly unnoted contemporaries such as Manilla Road and Warlord, Brocas Helm members Bobbie Wright (guitars/vocals), Jim Schumacher (bass voice) and Jack Hays (drums) blazed a less popular chase closer to traditional metal powers like Iron Maiden, Judas Priest and, of class, Black Sabbath, earlier them. This purist's philosophy cursorily translated into a contract with Germany's Steamhammer mark, which released Brocas Helm's medieval-minded debut album, Into Battle, in 1984, simply to little critical spat. Fact is, stripe and label were separated by also slap-up a space to make for together in effect, and the demos that would suit Brocas Helm's, instant album, Black Death, would languish unreleased for nearly four-spot years before at long last coming to light in 1989 -- and and then via the band's possess Gargoyle imprint. By and then, the mathematical group (now augmented by second guitar actor Tom "T-Bone" Behney) had get a rightfully underpass enterprise, and would progeny aught but demos (1994's "Ghost Story," 1997's "Clock time of the Dark") until giving up their struggle at last in the late ‘90's. Brocas Helm's retirement was ephemeral, however, and when Greek promoters invited them to term of enlistment that metal-mad province, they eagerly reformed and issued a individual entitled "Blood machine" to coincide with their live dates. Perhaps regular more surprisingly, 2004 eventually saw the release of a third Brocas Helm L.P. entitled Defender of the Crown.
