Years before MTV and decades before the Internet, there was a powerful musical force that dominated the city of Los Angeles. Only a handful would survive and withstand the new millennium, yet these stalwarts literally set the blueprint for hard rock and heavy metal bands that would soon reign supreme and gain worldwide attention throughout the '80s and beyond. These artists were the groundbreakers and trendsetters that set the course of heavy metal history. Yet little is known about these founding fathers of hard rock and heavy metal music until NOW!
