Maiden Africa

found this article just before on the metal scene in Botswana and how they are still influenced by Iron Maiden and the old New Wave of British Heavy Metal (NWOBHM).

Proof that metal is a truly international family and that bad taste in leather gear is universal.

I think I read an article about that somewhere else. Goes to show how awesome good metal is and how emotive it can be.

And that leather isn't really a fashion statement
