Formed in 1982, Dutch metal band Martyr have been around for almost 40 years. After releasing a few demo tapes in the Netherlands, Martyr put out two back to back albums that are both pure metal. Aside from being catchy as hell, they stand out even more for their unique melodies, riffs and song structure for the time. The debut album, For the Universe, is still a classic, and the follow-up, Darkness at Time's Edge, is arguably even better. Martyr broke up in 1987 but have been back together since 2005 with an updated but still , creative sound. But you'll just have to check them out for yourself! Join me as I take a look at the history of the legendary Dutch metal band, Martyr!
