Race With The Devil


"Race With The Devil" is a track by Girlschool from their 1980 debut album Demolition. Emerging from the New Wave of British Heavy Metal scene, Girlschool brought a raw, punk-tinged approach to hard rock that set them apart as one of the era's most distinctive acts. The song is a solid choice for electric guitarists looking to explore NWOBHM rhythm work, straightforward riffing, and the aggressive, no-frills energy that defined early 1980s British heavy metal.

  • Girlschool formed in 1978 and remain one of the longest-running all-female rock bands, still active after more than 40 years.
  • Demolition, the album featuring this track, was released in 1980 during the peak of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal movement.
  • Girlschool were frequently associated with Motörhead, reflecting the punk-influenced, high-energy style heard in their guitar work.
