was founded in late 1979 by two former members from the Metal for
Muthas stars Ethel The Frog - Paul Tognola (vocals/guitar) and Paul
Conyers (drums). Ade Jenkinson was drafted as the bass player and the
first band meeting with Paul Macnamara (lead guitar) was 2 January 1980
in The Red Lion pub in Anlaby, Hull.
In 2009, High Roller Records and
Pure Steel Records approached Salem, keen to release the 1980s
recordings on vinyl and CD. The result is the 2010 double-album In The
Beginning ...
Following great interest in the band, Salem re-formed and played first gig in 27 years at The Adelphi, in hometown Hull.

first band meeting with Paul Macnamara (lead guitar) was 2 January 1980

After a period of song writing
and rehearsal, Salem began gigging in Hull and district, and recorded
the first demo in January 1981.
Salem continued to gig prolifically
in the North of England with a hardcore of fans. They soon recorded
another demo, for the first time capturing the fans' favourite The
Keeper of the Keys. This raw session caught the passion of the live
performances.
Salem won a battle of the bands at Huddersfield
Polytechnic, following which they recorded the last demo at September
Sound, Huddersfield, in March 1983, which demonstrated the maturing song
writing of the band. Although a number of record companies expressed an
interest in the music, the band imploded and played their last,
sell-out gig in Hull on 31 May 1983.
