Anyone recognise this muso?
Here's a clue...
His track "Terminator", released under the name Metalheads in 1992 was a huge hit in the jungle scene, and is noted for pioneering the use of timestretching. In 1993 he released "Angel", another 12" on the Synthetic Hardcore Phonography label. 1994 saw him setting up his own record label, Metalheadz. The label was a huge success, releasing some of the most important 12"s of that era.
If we were being intensly artistic we might say that this picture, taken outside Walsall College (St Paul's Street) back in the 80's perhaps captures the yearning for freedom and expression that drove this muso to becoming a worldwide name in the years that followed. On the other hand we might just say, "hmmm, that's an interesting shot ennit!?!"
