Anvil is a heavy metal band formed in Toronto, Canada, in 1978 by childhood friends Steve "Lips" Kudlow and Robb Reiner. With a sound that combines elements of hard rock and metal, Anvil quickly gained a reputation for their high-energy live performances and relentless dedication to their music.
The band achieved moderate success in the early 1980s with albums like "Metal on Metal" and "Forged in Fire," but they never quite reached the same level of fame as some of their contemporaries. Despite this, Anvil continued to tour and release new music throughout the years, earning them a loyal following of fans who appreciated their raw and unapologetic approach to metal.
In 2008, the documentary film "Anvil! The Story of Anvil" brought renewed attention to the band and their struggles to make it in the music industry. The film highlighted the perseverance and passion of Kudlow and Reiner, inspiring a new generation of fans and solidifying Anvil`s place in metal history.
Today, Anvil continues to rock out on stages around the world, proving that true metal never dies. So next time you`re craving some headbanging riffs and fist-pumping anthems, give Anvil a listen and experience the power of their music for yourself.
