It could even be a youtube video or movie that you don't think anyone reading this has heard of besides you.

The Belgian 80's metal band Ostrogoth.

Their website doesn't exist anymore and the only band-run social media page is on Facebook.

If you're a fan of retro heavy metal, give them a listen! They still tour, though you won't be finding much about it online.

Sounds like they need a publicist or something.

they really do, but it seems they need more listeners to be able to pay one

Found them on metal archives and am listening through youtube.

I'm only a few seconds in, and I immediately get some early Helloween vibes from the guitar tone and playing in Queen of Desire, which is entirely a good thing. Rest of the sound so far is a lot more heavy than power metal, but it's right up my alley for a Christmas afternoon.

Thank you very much for the mention!
