Fastway 1982 Tapestry

Fastway were an English metal band formed in 1982. They released their self-titled debut in 1983, which was both a critical and commercial success. A second album, All Fired Up, dropped in 1984, but failed to get traction due to the rise of glam. In 1985, the group released Waiting for the Roar, which was more of an album-oriented rock sound, instead of the bluesy-metal of the previous albums. Success was limited, and disappointed many fans, but the same year, Fastway was approached to make the soundtrack for the heavy metal horror film Trick or Treat. The film flopped, but the soundtrack re-established Fastway as a hard-hitting metal band. The soundtrack was a moderate success and stayed on the Top 200 chart for eleven months.
