Band, *1979 GB
Rock
Deep Machine were a heavy metal group from the east end of London that first came into existence in 1979. Throughout the 1980s they were part of the NWOBHM. Founded by lead guitarist Bob Hooker, the band’s music was influenced by other NWOBHM bands such as Iron Maiden and in particular, Judas Priest. Various early line-ups existed but eventually Hooker recruited John Wiggins on guitar, Dave Orton bass, Rick Bruce drums, and Roger Marsden vocals. This line-up recorded some now much sought-after demo tapes including songs such as Demon Preacher, Asylum, Witchild and Deep Machine. Dave Orton then left and was replaced by Andy Wrighton on bass.
