Chariot

Chariot played standard, blue-collar NWOBHM-style metal, releasing two decent albums at the tail end of the NWOHBM movement. They were the first (and also only?) signing by Shades Records, formed by the same people who ran the then-famous Shades record store in England. After a time, the band gradually metamorphosed into the band later known as Dirty Deeds, and then just Deeds, that band releasing three albums from 1997 to 2002. In May 2004 three of the four original Chariot members reunited and the band was back in business.
