Diamond Head - Sucking My Love

[MarceloOrtegaGuerrer]

what a great song what a great rockers man... the 80s where the fusion of all rock and roll man.. great band

[bht824]

listen to megadeth - Disconect its basically a tribute

[nanamano]

i dunno why they had to change it to 'Such was my love'!

[thrashedlife]

Hot.

[mortem76]

De un gran disco... uno de los mejores de la historia del heavy metal. una belleza total

Salud.

[headbangerithamar]

Long live to NWOBHM¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡

[winshiposorio77]

Diamond Head one of the grates band better than others most populars. They were very underrated

[FritzLakritz24]

ENDGEIL!!!

[metalseed9]

Gee Metalica didn't lift much of seek and destroy off this song did they?

[TheSilencer1313]

@metalseed9 At least Metallica pay homage to the great underrated bands that influence their sound.

[TheShepster80]

@metalseed9 No you're right they didn't! but if you listen to another diamond head song "dead reckoning" and the solo section to saxon's princess of the night..you'll hear the influences.

[muereteborre]

is it me or does that singer has the ass of a brazilian girl? it's pretty distracting when he shakes it. ugh.

[metalseed9]

It's just you. LOL

[ronpack]

I'm glad Metallica did covers for them. If it weren't for that, I probably would've never heard of Diamond Head. Awesome band!

[JulietteHasGuns]

Gosh he's voice is great...

I miss this voice.

[Nightermare09]

only sean harris could get away with that kind of fronting. terrific vocal range, aye

[TheCoverUpsLondonUK]

Loved the "blowjobs" tag, ha ha!

[kendostick58]

why cant the do ANOTHER comeback tour with sean again? that would kick so musch ass

[wastingmydays]

Am I Evil, LTTN etc all great but SML is not just the best DH song but one of the best metal songs ever written. Great vocals, terrific riffs and amazin guitar solo. And it sounds not just heavy but beautiful. Could there ever be a better anthem to getting a blow job?! I remember my mother being digusted when she heard me playing it in my room. More than she was by WASPs Fuck Like a Beast! Awesome.

[bernardfolkbeard]

dude, which venue is this? saw em a couple of times on this tour. do you have all the leicester uni gig - i have and will post some soon.

[ELCABERNET]

Diamond Head is the begin of heavy metal in the world!the Bryan Tattler'riffs ispired many metal big bands like Metallica,Megadeth,Testament and more. Tank you Diamonds

[Atteratotus]

Yep and this track sounds like Seek and Destroy

...or its the other way round :)

[dannyjingu]

I wouldn't say the begininig of metal as much as more along the lines of the begining of thrash. Diamond Head had an amazing sound and it's almost hard to believe that theirs songs are as old as they are! They wrote some timeless pieces.

[MishuTaste]

I'd be kind of embarrassed if my mom was the band manager and I sang songs like this.

[bernardfolkbeard]

now now my son, i dont suppose you're in a band that influenced one of the biggest bands around today and started a new genre of music?? one of the best rock bands ever.

[kayrosx1]

what a band! glasgow apollo 82,best gig ever! diamond head rocked..as always, and support band tank got booed off,great night!

[wooksh007]

Zapraszamy do Polski!

[wooksh007]

Zapraszamy do Polski!

[fc31618]

Lightning to the nations!!

The Album that Metallica wish they had made! ;)

They cover almost the entire album!

[EatTheRich138]

I have no idea why someone gave you a thumbsdown for that, but I negated it. You are absolutely correct. LTTN is among the best, if not the best metal album ever.

[hidroagricolito]

diamond head!! The dads of metallica!!! yea

[cmfg600]

I can honestly say I had never heard of Diamond Head or Angelwitch until I picked up a copy of Cliff "em All waayyy back around late 1990. And until youtube, not a single person I knew heard of them either, or could get thier music. Too bad they never really made it here in the states, I really dig thier music. I can see where Metallica got alot of their early sound from, but not so much anymore, they are kinda their own entity.

[octopec]

Best.riff.ever.

[Miciochecanta]

Metallica plagiarized this

[Snorkel23fan]

It's called a cover

[Miciochecanta]

if you do a cover you don't change the title of the song then say t everybody that you wrote it

[Shlammod]

They did that in the early days (Metallica that is).... and if I recall correctly, some mate of Lars from Europe once DJ'd at a party in their early days and Lars requested him to not play certain songs because their set was mainly made up with those songs

[BADBOYSINFUL]

great song by a graet band

[vanhalenkid]

It doesn't sound the same as seek and destroy a at all.

[chronicdays]

a little bit. both intros to songs have similarity. metallica just used pull offs

[MakaveliTommo]

amazing

[Galley87]

Diamond Head = amazing

Without doubt a huge inspiration in the NWOBHM

[SAHBfan]

The band certinly ain't the same without SH - On the vids with other vocalists they come across as a.n.other metal band, admittedly with good songs... But surely in some ways they are very lucky that Metallica became their mentors? So many of their contemporaries from the same era (and area sometimes) sank into obscurity despite being great bands and few remember them now :-(

[spaghettilegsjosh]

It pisses me right off how Metallica completely copied the riff in this song, and Diamond Head don't even get the credit for it (well, my dad anyway - he wrote 90% of it).

[sleeper141]

It must be annoying to see a band who started virtually as a DH tribute band become much bigger than them. However, without the support from Metallica over the years DH would not still be going today - I imagine that Brian and Sean do quite well out of the royalties from Garage Inc.

[spaghettilegsjosh]

Well, not nowadays to be quite honest. You don't hear Metallica playing the old songs anymore.

[garvan]

@sleeper141 I'm not sure about that - according to Tatler, Sean was being more than a bit selfish in this regard, which one of the main reasons for Sean no longer singing with Diamond Head.

[guitarclaydo]

you dad has a great band!!

[TheSilencer1313]

@spaghettilegsjosh What song are you refering to man? Metallica covered this song, never ripped it off.

[TheShepster80]

@spaghettilegsjosh Which metallica song are u referring to?

[risethelightning]

@spaghettilegsjosh don't be mad, a band is a reflection of their influences, im pretty sure diamond head is proud that they played a major role in the sound of metallica, and thrash metal for all that reason, but you gotta understand there was a bunch of bands doing what they did nwobhm, and usually if you are not the first ones, you wont get the credit you deserved, just look at all the thrash bands after metallica, they where unique in their own way, but they were not the first, Diamond Head!!

[sethiroph08]

@spaghettilegsjosh who's your dad?

[metalupureazz]

Wow, this band is so important yet so underrated.

[Wehategod]

Diamond Head greatest NWOBHM band of all time

[chobeman7]

Diamond Head is a fuckin great band. Metallica wishes They were them. They covered enough of their songs

[aelg669]

this song is the father of "seek and destroy", that's for sure.

[hyoma1977]

So true :)

[samjenko]

ok sleeper you are obviously a huge dh fan what went wrong dh should be bigger than maiden i blame partly sh acting the prick first album remains the greatest hm album ever ?

[sleeper141]

Thanks, I am a pretty big fan. Loads of factors influenced DH's downfall

1) Maiden had Ron Smallwood as manager,DH had Reg Fellows, a local cardboard manufacturer

2)DH didnt sign to a major label quick enough

3)MCA wasnt the label that was right for them

4)Harris' mum was their tour manager

5)changed direction too soon

6)Pressing problems on Canterbury

7) Harris got fed up of metal and wanted to do pop music, if you've heard the unreleased stuff youll know what I mean

[GWB201092]

Cheers whoever put this, I listen to it through WMP all the time. Cheers!

[sleeper141]

No problem mate. I've put most of this gig on youtube if you go on my page

[lant70]

Reminds me of being a teenager, mother asks "What are you listening to?", quickly turn volume down "Nothing!"

Diamond Head, great!

[risethelightning]

for sure man

[lant70]

Rebellion:)

[risethelightning]

fuck yeah dude, one word, the shit

[KeepRocking2]

Diamond Head certainly translates to Good Blowjob in US English!

[triviumcunt]

and exactly what language is diamond head spelled in motherfucking idiot

[XIcedEarthX]

Diamond Head is "spelled" in UK English, fuckwad. He's trying to say shit means different things in the UK than here. God, I hate stupid fucktards who don't pay attention before they type.

[triviumcunt]

haha god damn your a kike for sure. first of all you can fuck yourself and second, what the fuck do you think it means in english then

[glambush2]

My friend, you really need to calm down. Take your racist comments and bad grammar elsewhere. This is a great clip of a fabulous group and I think we should all leave positive comments and constructive criticism on this fine page. Bravo to sleeper141!!!

[triviumcunt]

wow.

[sleeper141]

no problem

[Jersen123]

thnx sleeper 141. this is my favorite diamond head song!

[deadhorse89]

yeah suck my love bitch
