Bulldozer

There have been at least 6 bands under name Bulldozer: 1) Bulldozer is an Italian speed/thrash/black Metal-band formed in 1980. Their music was frequently referred to as Italy's answer to Venom, and on the strength of their debut album, 1985's "Day Of Wrath" (produced by Algy Ward of Tank), it's easy why this was the case. Alberto Contini's bass and vocals both strongly resembled his Venom counterpart Cronos, and the band's messy Satanic pre-thrash metal was indeed quite similar to Venom's first couple of albums.

They survived for a few more years and released three more albums that no doubt diverged from the Venom sound (they are not reviewed here), but for right or wrong, they never really managed to escape the Venom clone tag and never got above cult status. They split-up in 1992. They decided to start up again in 2008 and is currently working on a new album.

2) Finnish Traditional Heavy Metal band formed in 1996 and split-up around 2002.
3) Croatian Heavy Metal band formed in 2001.
4) French punk band in the late 70s.
5) Spanish punk band formed in 2001
6) Dutch Hands Up formation
7) Australian stoner metal/rock band
