10 Forgotten 70s Metal Bands That VANISHED Overnight
#underrated #obscure #forgotten #metalmusic #metal

What if I told you some of the heaviest, wildest metal of the entire 1970s didn’t come from Sabbath, Priest, or Purple…
but from bands that were wiped clean from history almost overnight?
The 1970s didn't just birth heavy metal—it buried some of its fiercest pioneers before anyone even knew their names.
These weren’t bands that eased into the sunset or chased radio shine. These were groups with real fire. They had the riffs, the roar, the respect… and then they were gone like they were never there at all.
Labels botched them. Management wrecked them. Bandmates walked away mid-ascension.
Some burned out. Others self-destructed.
Here are ten bands that should have been carved into metal history.
