Description If you still believe in Santa Claus, then you probably also think that Speed Metal was invented in the United States of America! Metallica, Slayer, Exodus forget all about them. Speed Metal was invented in Great Britain. In Bristol, to be precise. In the year of the Lord 1982. This year Jaguar released their landmark debut album entitled Power Games. And the world was never the same again Opening the Enclosure shows a truely legendary band
in its infancy. Before Power Games Jaguar had already released two 7" singles: Back Street Woman on Heavy Metal Records in 1981 and Axe crazy a year later on Newcastle''s own Neat Records. The number Stormchild, possibly the centrepiece of Opening the Enclosure, might as well be called the first Speed Metal composition in Heavy Metal history.
Jaguar guitarist Garry Pepperd says: Of course Metallica borrowed our song ''Stormchild'' and turned it into ''Whiplash''. That is flattering I guess! Opening the Enclosure is full of classic songs. Ten New Wave Of British Heavy Metal masterpieces, from Feel the Heat to Scrap Metal. Although the
recordings are only demos, the production would put some current bands to shame. Whereas Ain''t no Fantasy or War Machine appeared in different
versions on Power Games, jewels like Crack in the Wall, Piledriver or Wastin'' Time never made it onto the original debut album!
