Diamond Head - To The Devil His Due DVDMusic Video Distributors
Diamond Head are a New Wave Of British Heavy Metal band who never really had much success in the U.S., but did well in Europe. They were also huge influences on thrash bands like Metallica and Megadeth. Metallica covered several of their songs over the years, including "Am I Evil," "It's Electric" and "Helpless."

Diamond Head formed in 1976 and broke up for the first time in 1985. They reformed for a few years in the early '90s, and then split again until 2002. To The Devil His Due features a live show filmed in 2005 in London. The band plays all their biggest songs, and they really sound good. Unfortunately original vocalist Sean Harris is no longer in the band. Nick Tart is a good replacement, but without Harris there is something missing.

The concert on its own is very good, but the extras add even more. There is an extensive interview with the band that covers their history throughout the years and influence on Metallica, which is very interesting.
