Thin Lizzy – Thin Lizzy

Thin Lizzy are a hard rock band formed in Dublin, Ireland, in 1969. Their music reflects a wide range of influences, including blues, soul music, psychedelic rock, and traditional Irish folk music, but is generally classified as hard rock or sometimes heavy metal. From 1974, Thin Lizzy switched from using one lead guitarist to two. This style was later refined and popularised in the mid-1970s by bands like Judas Priest, and later by the emerging new wave of British heavy metal groups such as Iron Maiden and Def Leppard. The band was also a major inspiration for modern heavy metal bands such as Metallica, Alice in Chains, Mastodon and Testament. Thin Lizzy is also the name of their debut album, released on 30 April 1971. The album has an experimental flavour, mostly with bluesy non-metal influences.
