== Historia ==
=== Formación ===
Raven was formed in 1974 in Newcastle, England, by brothers John Gallagher and Mark Gallagher, and Paul Bowden.
 
Raven began creating a sound which was rooted in British hard rock, with progressive rock tendencies, and a willingness to take musical chances. The band's highly-energized live show and interaction between band members developed a unique image and style of play, described as "athletic". They began wearing guards, helmets, and plates from various sports (hockey, baseball, etc...), and incorporating them into the playing of their instruments (for instance, elbow pads and hockey masks were used to strike cymbals). Their music began to develop into a unique amalgam of speed & power - heavily influencing the genres of speed/thrash metal and power metal. The band have a reputation as a extremely energetic live band - and for regularly destroying their equipment.
 
They started by playing local pubs & working mens clubs in the North East of England - occasionally opening shows for punk bands such as The Stranglers & The Motors.
