rdfs:comment	Praying Mantis ist eine Band, die zusammen mit Gruppen wie Iron Maiden Ende der 1970er und Anfang der 1980er Jahre zu den Pionieren der New Wave of British Heavy Metal (NWoBHM) gehörte. Mit weiteren bekannten Bands dieser Zeit spielte die Band auf großen Festivals und stand mit dem 1981er Debütalbum Time Tells No Lies kurz vor einem weltweiten Durchbruch. Aufgrund vertraglicher Probleme erschien das zweite Album jedoch erst zehn Jahre später – zu einer Zeit, in der andere Klänge als der typisch-britische traditionelle Heavy-Metal-Stil der Band die Musikwelt dominierten.
