as released on LP in 1981, but for legal reasons, was not released on CD until 1995. The album peaked at number 12 on the Billboard chart in 1981. Blue Öyster Cult wrote and recorded a song called "Vengeance (The Pact)" for the movie. However, the producers declined to use the song because the song
's lyrics provided a capsulized summary of the "Taarna" vignette. "Veteran of the Psychic Wars" was used instead. Both songs can be found on Blue Oyster Cult's Fire of Unknown Origin album. The legal difficulties surrounding the movie maker's use of some of the songs in the movie delayed its releas
e to video. Apparently, the production company's use of the songs was limited to the theatrical release and soundtracks alone, and didn't extend to the video release of the film. Rights negotiations took over 15 years to resolve, and the official home video release didn't debut until 1996. Tracks:
1. "Heavy Metal" (Sammy Hagar) (3:50) 2. "Heartbeat" (Riggs) (4:20) 3. "Working in the Coal Mine" (Devo) (2:48) 4. "Veteran of the Psychic Wars" (Blue Öyster Cult) (4:48) 5. "Reach Out" (Cheap Trick) (3:35) 6. "Heavy Metal (Takin' a Ride)" (Don Felder) (5:00) 7. "True Companion" (Donald Fage
n) (5:02) 8. "Crazy (A Suitable Case for Treatment)" (Nazareth) (3:24) 9. "Radar Rider" (Riggs) (2:40) 10. "Open Arms" (Journey) (3:20) 11. "Queen Bee" (Grand Funk Railroad) (3:11) 12. "I Must Be Dreamin'" (Cheap Trick) (5:37) 13. "The Mob Rules" (Black Sabbath) (2:43) 14. "All of You" (Don F
elder) (4:18) 15. "Prefabricated" (Trust) (2:59) 16. "Blue Lamp" (Stevie Nicks) (3:48) Though used in the film, the songs "Through Being Cool" by Devo & "E5150" by Black Sabbath were not included in the released soundtrack album.
Because of time constraints, a segment of the film called "Neverwhere Land" was cut out; in the movie it would have connected Captain Sternn to B-17. The original rough animatics are set to a loop of the beginning of Pink Floyd's "Time". The original idea for the episode B-17 was going to see Gre
mlins attacking the plane and trying to dismantle it in the air, instead of the undead pilots used. Some believe the reason for this change is because of parallels to the 1943 Bugs Bunny short Falling Hare, although Heavy Metal's gremlins were green rather than yellow. The Loc-Nar itself comes fro
m the Den graphic novels, although it was not round but rather oblong, and did not speak. Contrary to Den's statement in the movie (as portrayed by the voice of John Candy) in the graphic novels, Den did not, in fact, have a problem "running around with his dork hanging out." The change was likely
made to keep an 'R' rating for the film. Despite the film's copious female nudity, extensive full-frontal exposure of a male would likely be considered unacceptable for American audiences. This film would mark the second time that Richard Corben's Den character was depicted in animation. The first
time was in 1968 with his self-produced animated short Neverwhere. In the segment "So Beautiful,So Dangerous",after we see the pilots stoned for the first time,the ship goes through a field of space debris. Among this debris you can clearly see Star Trek´s Enterprise floating around.
