Forcefield

Forcefield formed in 1985 and put out their debut album 'No Surrender' the following year. That record included 'Red Alert,' a song that connected with listeners at the time. The band's music was heavy and direct, with another track like 'Traversing The Fantasy' showing a similar intensity.

Their live shows were known for being loud and energetic, which sometimes drew criticism from people who thought the performances or lyrics went too far. The band members had stage names like Ares Storm on vocals and Zeke Thunderbolt on guitar, which fit the theatrical style of that era's metal scene.

They kept recording after their initial success, though the exact details of those later albums aren't as clear in the available information. What remains are those early songs that defined their sound, straightforward, aggressive tracks that captured a particular moment in underground metal.
