Reviled or ingnored by many mainstream critics in both UK and US, the NWOBHM nonetheless came to dominate the heavy metal and hard rock scene of the early 1980s, NWOBHM was musically charaterized by fast upbeat tempo songs, power chords, fast and extended guitar solos and, melodic-soaring high registered vocals, with lyrical themes often drawling on mythology and fantasy fiction sometimes on real life reality or world chaos going on at the time. Many of the bands in this era were signed to Neat Records, who released volumes of NWOBHM compilations in later years

NWOBHM bands toned down the blues influences of earlier acts, incorporated elements of punk (and in the case of Iron Maiden combined it with Progressive Rock), increased the tempo, and adopted a "tougher" sound, taking a harder approach to its music. It was an era directed almost exclusively at heavy metal fans and is considered to be a major foundation stone for the extreme metal genres; acts such as the American metal band Metallica cite NWOBHM bands like Iron Maiden,Saxon, Motörhead and Diamond Head as a major influence on their musical style. The NWOBHM came to dominate the heavy metal scene of the early-mid-1980s. NWOBHM was musically characterized by fast upbeat tempo songs, power chords, fast guitar solos and melodic, soaring vocals, with lyrical themes often drawing inspiration from mythology and fantasy fiction. Many of the bands of this era were signed to Neat Records, who have released volumes of NWOBHM compilations in later years.
