I sometimes think of some of the other NWOBHM bands that didn't get covered. They introduced Diamond Head to millions of American fans that didn't know Diamond Head, because we had never toured the US back in the day. And he said, 'this is probably going to sell five million copies, based on the the last few. Later on we drove back into San Francisco to celebrate, and l asked Lars how many copies the record would sell. Lars showed us around and treated us to a playback of 'It's Electric', that they'd just recorded. In 1998, I was visiting our drummer Karl in San Francisco, and I got a call from Lars Ulrich, who invited us to come and visit him at The Record Plant studio in Sausalito, California, where Metallica were recording Garage Inc. I bought a house with my wife, and the constant flow of royalties mean that I no longer have to work. It contains four Diamond Head songs, and the royalties have changed my life a lot. Tatler: "This album came out in 1998 and sold over five million copies. It's a common occurrence now, but back in 1971, it was groundbreaking so if I tried to play along with it, I couldn't. I could never work out why Sabbath sounded so much heavier than every other band, but this album was the first album recorded in dropped C sharp (an alternative guitar tuning with a heavier tone). I'd come up with a riff, and it would then be up to Sean (Harris, original Diamond Head singer) to sing a lyric and a top line.
I love the way the riffs churned while Ozzy would sing a brilliant top line, and I think that was very influential to Diamond Head. I stole lots of things from Sabbath, and from this album in particular.

It's another classic 70s album full of killer riffs: 'Children Of The Grave', 'Into The Void', 'After Forever', 'Sweet Leaf',' Lord Of This World'. Tatler: "The power of the riff came through to me on this album. Following is an excerpt from the rundown. Diamond Head guitarist Brian Tatler recently spoke with Louder Sound and revealed the 10 albums that changed his life.
