Blitzkrieg is a British heavy metal band that was formed in Leicester in 1980, and they are one of the key players in the New Wave of British Heavy Metal (NWOBHM) movement. Their debut album, "A Time of Changes," released in 1985, is considered a classic in the genre, embodying the raw energy and spirit of early 80s metal.
"A Time of Changes" - Album Overview Released in 1985, "A Time of Changes" is Blitzkrieg's first full-length album, despite the band having formed several years earlier. The album showcases a powerful blend of traditional heavy metal with elements of speed and power metal. Its sound is characterized by fast-paced guitar riffs, galloping rhythms, and the distinctive, soaring vocals of lead singer Brian Ross.
The title track, "A Time of Changes," stands out as an anthem of the NWOBHM era, with its epic feel and thought-provoking lyrics. "Blitzkrieg," perhaps their most famous song, gained further notoriety when it was covered by Metallica as a B-side to their "Creeping Death" single, introducing Blitzkrieg to a new generation of metal fans.
Other standout tracks include "Armageddon," a high-energy opener with a thrashy edge, and "Pull the Trigger," which combines melodic guitar work with aggressive drumming. The album as a whole delivers a powerful punch and has been influential in shaping the sound of not only British heavy metal but also thrash metal, which would rise to prominence later in the 80s.
