The New Wave of British Heavy Metal era was a golden age in British music. Bands like Iron Maiden, Saxon, Def Leppard, Tygers of Pan Tang, Diamond Head and Samson ruled the world.

We grew up with these guys, they taught us to play, they taught us to write music.

MORPHEUS RISING takes all the best bits of NWoBHM - twin guitars and soaring vocals; adds a splash of extra ingredients such as the darker edge of Goth bands like The Cult and The Mission; the raw energy of Classic Rock icons like Led Zeppelin and AC/DC; plus just a twist of more melodic acts such as Marillion and Magnum.  We are The Next Generation... NWoBHM-TNG!!

All the best,

Grae, Pete, Daymo, Andy & Gibbo
MORPHEUS RISING
...resurrecting British Heavy Metal!
