The Official Station for 80's Rock & Heavy Metal
Your contributions will help us keep your 80’s Rock Radio station up and running. We appreciate your support!
We started our social media page in July 2018, as a fan tribute to 80’s classic rock & heavy metal. During the global pandemic lockdown in May 2020, we launched our first broadcast. In the midst of confusion, fear and uncertainty, we were inspired to share the music that was a huge part of our youth in the 80’s.
From the decade that started the mosh pit, rock groups of the 80s, lead singers in spandex, MTV music television, metal bands with big hair and headbangers worldwide, WE ARE 80’s ROCK RADIO! We love playing the popular 80s rock songs from the best 80s rock bands. We hope you will enjoy the music with us.

Tygers of Pan Tang is one of the original New Wave of British Heavy Metal bands that emerged in the late 70’s into the early 80’s. Although they didn’t get much airplay in the U.S., and you probably didn’t see their videos on MTV, Tygers of Pan Tang was the ultimate 80s hard rock band from Whitley Bay, England. Their 1982 album, The Cage totally rocks! It confirms that Tygers of Pan Tang is one of the most underrated hard rock bands of the 80’s! Guitarist John Sykes is featured on the tracks “Danger in Paradise and the cover version of “Love Potion No. 9.”
