1) Blitzkrieg was formed in October 1980 after signing a record deal with Neat Records. In the early stages of their career they regularly produced gigs in England, but then later split in 1981. Brian Ross most notably went on to join Satan, another metal band, along with stints in Avenger, Lone Wolf and Unter den Linden. In 1984 Ross and fellow founding member Jim Sirotto, along with guitarist Mick Proctor (ex-Tygers of Pan Tang), bass player Mick Moore (of Avenger) and drummer Sean Taylor (Satan/Blind Fury, ex-Raven) then decided that it was time to record the Blitzkrieg album that was originally planned to be released in 1981, A Time of Changes. It was later released in 1985.
The song "Blitzkrieg" was then covered by popular American band Metallica on the Creeping Death EP. Metallica's drummer, Lars Ulrich commented that Blitzkrieg was one of their main influences, along with Diamond Head. Diamond Head is falsely thought to have also done a cover of the song Blitzkrieg, thanks to a mislabeled song spread over the internet; this is actually a version of the track performed by Blitzkrieg which featured on the Buried Alive single (released before the band's original split in 1981) . The song was rerecorded in many different styles through the band's career, but the Buried Alive b-side version of Blitzkrieg was the recording which inspired Metallica's cover of the song for their Creeping Death EP, as the first alternate version was released on the A Time of Changes album in 1985 (a year after the Creeping Death EP was released).
Blitzkrieg started recording songs in 1990 for the release of the album, 10 Years of Blitzkrieg, in 1991. In 1992 they started recording more songs for the next album, Unholy Trinity, released in 1995. Blitzkrieg was highly appreciated by the public after the release of these albums, and they were even more appreciated when the album, Ten, was released in 1997. Ten received a good response from the public, and was later backed up by the release of The Mists of Avalon in 1998, which also brought forward a positive response.
Vocalist Brian Ross was then involved in a car accident, which prevented Blitzkrieg from releasing any further material. Six months later, he decided to reform Blitzkrieg and create another album. They released the albums, Absolute Power (a studio album), Absolutely Live (a live album) and Sins and Greed. On August 10, 2007 Blitzkrieg released their new album Theatre of the Damned through their record label Armageddon Music.

Buried Alive
Blitzkrieg Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And then he went to sleep
Tommy gun, saw the sun
And then began to weep
Travolta style, he danced a mile
Then fell down in a heap
He wondered why, he could not buy
The people that were cheap
Take me to your hearts!
Take me to your hearts!
Take me to your ¡¡HEARTS!!
The greasy dog, drank the fog
Then rolled on down the street
The leather prince, he turned to mince
And left behind, his feet
Poetic frog, became a hog
And wallowed in the sty
And Betty bright, screamed all night
Then walked across the sky
Take me to your hearts!
Take me to your hearts!
Take me to your ¡¡HEARTS!!
Five foot Mike, fell on the spike
That pierced his left hand
He wore the hood, and dripped his blood
Along the golden sand
They saved his hide, he almost died
Thanks to brave old clive
And none did frown, as they laid him down
And buried him alive
Take me to your hearts!
Take me to your hearts!
¡¡TAKE ME TO YOUR HEARTS!!

Line by Line Meaning
Senseless slaughter, hung his daughter
The act of murdering his own daughter without any rational motive
And then he went to sleep
He slept easily after the heinous act
Tommy gun, saw the sun
A violent weapon being used to commit murder under the daylight
And then began to weep
The murderer had a sudden realization and remorse for his crime
Travolta style, he danced a mile
He danced exuberantly like John Travolta in Saturday Night Fever
Then fell down in a heap
Collapsed in exhaustion after the dance
He wondered why, he could not buy
He questioned why he couldn't manipulate or control people like objects
The people that were cheap
The people he thought he could manipulate because they were easily purchasable
Take me to your hearts!
A plea to be welcomed and accepted by others
The greasy dog, drank the fog
A nonsensical statement with no clear meaning
Then rolled on down the street
Continuing the nonsensical statement with no clear meaning
The leather prince, he turned to mince
A person of authority and power was destroyed and reduced to nothing
And left behind, his feet
The only evidence of the prince's existence left behind
Poetic frog, became a hog
A sudden transformation from one thing to another
And wallowed in the sty
The transformed creature embraced its new, filthy surroundings
And Betty bright, screamed all night
Someone experiencing a great deal of discomfort or agony
Then walked across the sky
A miraculous and impossible feat
Five foot Mike, fell on the spike
A tragic accident involving a sharp object and a person's shorter-than-average stature
That pierced his left hand
The specific point of injury that caused great pain and damage
He wore the hood, and dripped his blood
Attempting to hide his identity as he bled profusely
Along the golden sand
The location of the injury, such as a beach or desert
They saved his hide, he almost died
He nearly lost his life but was rescued in time
Thanks to brave old clive
A person who was instrumental in saving his life
And none did frown, as they laid him down
The people who helped him showed no judgment or disapproval as they placed him in his final resting place
And buried him alive
The shocking and terrifying end to the story
Take me to your hearts!
Repeating the plea for acceptance and love, possibly hinting at a deeper desire for redemption

You find the true pioneers of 'heavy' metal through the obscure demo tapes that do little more than collect dust these days.
