I was genuinely impressed by this. The fact that they gave Napalm Death a spot on their show is good enough, but that they allowed them a chance to explain some of the most commonly misunderstood things about metal (i.e. growled vocals) without making it too gimmicky or taking the piss really impressed me. Kudos to the BBc for this.

That’s a nice and a bit romantic description of band. But Napalm were very, very driven, They very much “knew” they were going to “make it” but in their terms. And Mick Harris was always the opposite of shy. Yes, Lee Dorian was clearly nervous but look at Bill - he seems his own man in the interview.
I love when underground bands end up on mainstream shows like this. The Canadian version of Sesame Street had the hardcore punk band Random Killing on to play a song, haha!
Mint Jeffer America had Soilent Green & early Cannibal Corpse,and although not death metal but we also had the mighty Eyehategod who have a song called Sisterfucker...lol
Yup...then again the UK was the land that spawned Sabbath, Priest, Maiden and later Venom, all of whom pioneered metal in their own right and were certainly not without generating controversy. It is therefore no surprise that the land of The Beatles, Tea and The Houses of Parliament went on to spawn the likes of such armies of brute force with the likes of Napalm Death, Carcass, Cancer and Bolt Thrower. However a band as brutal as Napalm Death appearing on children's TV remains something truly extraordinary while the PMRC were getting offended by glam metal across the pond.
Slayer are a way better band and at least you can hear tom araya singer the words. All you heard from napalm death was dooh dooh booh gooh booh booh gooh gooh gooh.
They couldn't deduce the drummer said "death metal" when he said it. Death Metal was that unknown in 1989 in the mainstream. When Napalm death appeared on the BBC in 1989 the channel got a load of complaints from people not so much about how much they hated the music but they thought the BBC was taking the piss out of the public and the band and music wasn't real.
this is literally the coolest thing I've ever seen...the dude from 'Red Dwarf' interviewing one of the most extreme bands on the planet, on a kids TV show....fucking epic!!!!
Members of Napalm Death appeared in an episode Red Dwarf called Time Slides the same year as this. They were the back up band to young Lister, called Smeg and Th e Heads.
I remember watching this on TV, and it was a cool and strange moment. I also remember meeting Bill and Lee briefly in Cardiff before a gig they were playing. I asked some people who looked like metalheads if they were going to the gig and it ended up being the band themselves haha. All I had was a copy of Scum on cassette that somebody at school had recorded for me, and I hadn't yet seen how they looked yet. Really nice bunch of down to earth people, and the gig was good (apart from the lighting rig randomly falling down during the set).
Remember; no one, I mean absolutely no one sounded like The Naps, back in the day. Took a girl to a first date at the ULU to see them. That was the end of that.
THE ulu gig with Carass, ENT, Bolt Thrower & Intense Degree that appeared in the Arena documentary?? She should still be kissing your feet in gratitude. That gig is absolutely legendary
"Why should your prad be sow restricted, restricted to a mir fraction a this irf, this irf ..." It's weird hearing this Northern style cover of a Grindcore song

I knew lee before his days in napalm death etc. We were skinheads. He was a really smart skinhead..well dressed. A mad clash fan. Full respect to ya m8.
I was waiting for a train at king's cross earlier this year and Bill Steer walked past me carrying a guitar. I recognised him straight away but couldn't remember his name so I just shouted Carcass!! He turned around and nodded in approval. That'll do for me 😂
Mogshade yes and yes. I have the peel sessions on vinyl from back in the day. :) oh and the ep they did after from enslavement prior to the line up change
Got to hang out with Napalm while they recorded "Harmony Corruption " at Morrisound Studio in Tampa, Florida. They added Barney on vocals along with Jesse(Terrorizer) and Mitch (Righteous Pigs).
they shocked everybody at the studio,.. probably.. and they thought it's just a bunch of noise ringing in their guitar and stuff and all of the sudden they synchronized to end the song LOL.. ..
I love that Craig Charles doesn't take the mickey out of them and praises their lyrics. I can't remember if he was actually a fan or not but i do know Bill Steer and Jeff Walker appeared in a Red Dwarf episode, 'Timeslides' i believe.
Just that they have songs like you suffer. They are trying to push the boundaries of music as far as you can push them. That's what I love about Napalm Death. It's very experimental but they talk about their music like it's nothing out of the ordinary.
@Jim Goose Oooh Sir, I'm not a kid exactly haha! And I did know what you're talking about. I accidentally used "original" instead of "early." You meant well. Cheers!
@Jim Goose Oh, no problem at all then. The "helping out" comment made me think you were trying to act old and wise, lol. Keep grinding and thrashing! 🤘
“Cunt-born some more To be big and strong like daddy Drill them to perpetuate Into the ultimate form of stupidity.” - Napalm Death (It’s a M.A.N.S World)
Saw ND and At the Gates play in the Berkley square in the San Francisco bay area back in the late 90s . We were fortunate enough to grab some tickets because it was sold out. There were more people listening in outside than inside. Bloody awesome outing for both bands.
Napalm Death plays "you suffer" the guy talking to them: That's all? Lead Singer: That's all? Don't you know what this is? It's an everlasting Napalm Death! interviewer: An everlasting Napalm Death?

Actually, Napalm Death were savagely criticized back in the day for this BBC appearence. Too mainstream, people argued.
This lineup only lasted 2 years and is still the best grindcore lineup of all time.

Whats the name of your band?
Bill Steer is fucking epic, he is the sound of Carcass and you can hear it clearly in Napalm before he left.
Easily one of the most influential Guitarists in Extreme music his riffs are always perfectly crafted and the solos are incredible

Oh and what's my favorite Napalm song? "Nazi Punks FUCK OFF"
The children orchestra at the beginning should have accompanied Napalm Death for a symphonic version of You Suffer.
Hey hey , absolutely :)
Years later, but epic comment.
Best youtube idea ever!
You’re an Icon, man !!! 🤣🤣🤣
members of the band looks like girls, they need haircuts
While the USA was still suffering at the hands of the PMRC et al, the UK had Napalm Death on childrens TV. Classic. :)
Mint Jeffer America had Soilent Green & early Cannibal Corpse,and although not death metal but we also had the mighty Eyehategod who have a song called Sisterfucker...lol

There is nothing better than good old def metal.

Well, at the time death metal didn't really completely exist yet. It was just barely born.
Skip van der Zwaan ....No it existed since the mid 80s...
Death Metal was around long before this.....i had the Death demos on tape trading mid 80's
So you mean a whopping 5-6 years prior? Hardly a long time
5-6 years is quite a long time in music ;)

Damn Deal Done The song was "Om"

smeggin hell!
The bad sound quality makes it even better, this is as brutal as it gets.
absolutely brilliant! Craig Charles of course was a huge fan of Carcass - he got Bill and Jeff on "Red Dwarf" as his backing band in an episode!!!
I love how Bill can't stop laughing. Also that "Evolved as One" plays while Lee talks.
“That’s the point of the lyric sheet” 😂 fantastic television. Awesome effort from host and band
1:33 Bill checking out Craig's tie
He seems a bit intrigued doesnt he?

I took a bird to see half man half biscuit she did the same.
in 2019 a Black Sabbath song was featured in a Nissan advert.
How many more years before a Napalm Death song is used to sell Weetabix?
😁👍
They are using old metal classics because the teens that listened to that música now are old and have money, and that type of adverts attracts them👌
Reflex Paper used Blood Duster in their commercials about 20 years ago... at least one of those ads is here on YT
The warm glow of weettabix and marshall amplifiers!
In 1989 , i was only 22 , and i still remember this show today :)
Because we had cable tv , we were able to watch BBC :)

If you listen closely you can hear Napalm Death’s song “Evolved As One” playing in the background.
Napalm were waaaay ahead of their time

Dude, they suck and are overrated trash.
Thanks so much for sharing, you bloody legend!! :-)
Bill Steer!!!
Today, he looks the exact same age. True story.
Love Craig Charles' little poem here. 'You suffer, but why' is actually a quite neat summation of his voiceover on Takeshi's Castle
3:28 The lyrics, so deep.
Got to hang out with Napalm while they recorded "Harmony Corruption " at Morrisound Studio in Tampa, Florida. They added Barney on vocals along with Jesse(Terrorizer) and Mitch (Righteous Pigs).
from enslavement to obliteration is one of the best releases of ALL time

Heat Mini Show! Back in "1988" because Shane Embyry is on Bass. Loved that grunting deep growl style Lee.D. Napalm the Best!
Me recuerda a Necrosis (Chile) en Sábados Gigantes 🤘
Fue un momento surrealista...
Wish i saw this when i was 8 in its original broadcast just to get a good head start on this kind of stuff.
That is my favorite album. I forgot they were English. Lee Dorian is the best singer imo and this bsnd line up.
Bill is cute as hell!
Ahh Because they are on the first 2 albums which I never bought. Started with harmony corruption. Off to the record store, getting in my car now.
A kid's show nowadays would't dare to show a Death Metal band in a million years!
