The same goes for Motorhead and UFO. Maiden were clearly influenced by UFO's 'vintage' metal.

I am very surprised that you've never heard of Saxon.

Motörhead is probably my favourite NWOBHM group if they count.

That's a band I keep meaning to give more time to ever since seeing them featured in Unknown Soldier's journal (where da fuk u at, bro?). I remember thinking they were cool but haven't gotten back around to them.

They're not as genius as some of the super classics but they make their way into your heart. Especially that track.
