A rock fest of a DVD release featuring the kings of Speed Metal – Agent Steel Agent Steel is a speed metal band from Los Angeles, California that was formed in 1984 by the Brazilian singer John Cyriis and the drummer Chuck Profus.

The band released two full-length albums and one EP before ending in 1988.They were most notable for John Cyriis’s high-pitched vocals, catchy songs, melodic riffs and fast tempos mixed in with their unusual (in heavy metal) UFO conspiracy theory imagery. The band reformed in 1999 and has released two full length albums since. The huge success in the USA of early albums “Skeptics Apocalypse” and “Unstoppable Force” led to their first tour of Europe in 1987, which was to last 180 days. This DVD features a full electrifying performance from the final night of that tour – recorded at London’s famous Hammersmith Odeon venue – showcasing the band at the zenith of their career.
