1986 Teen Metal Head Musician Looks Back 34 Years Later

Back in 1986, my team filmed a local heavy-metal hard-core band in Belfast Maine called Hatred (later they became the band Weapons). The band members were wonderfully articulate teenagers heavily influenced by Metallica, Motley Crue, Black Flag, Slayer, Exodus and others. They had dropped out of school and were competing in a battle of the bands competition. I didn't understand Heavy Metal at the time but I found these young men expressive – good folk. Some time ago I posted an interview with lead singer head banger Eddie and his mom debating whether or not this music was the music of Satan. The interview is very popular with my YouTube audience and so I have posted this video to further tell their story and give a sense of how band member Eddie feels in December 2020 after all these years.
