Release Year: 2019
Artist Origin: SWE
Style: melodic hard rock / heavy metal

the biggest eighties' heavy rock explosion [1986] comes out from Sweden - these ten tracks have basically caused the immense hard rock and metal popularity in the country and overall Scandinavia, which is still an ongoing process: timeless melodies and hooky choruses are the core of its bombastic punch that keep sentimentally hitting hard and kicking major fuckin' arse, powerful with the most popular tracks as much as with such memorable gems as Cherokee or On The Loose, featuring catchy choruses, virtuoso guitar work, prominent keyboard touches and an uplifting vocal delivery, creating an infectious, arena-ready atmosphere, while the refined sound brought them a worldwide recognition and left a mark that cannot be ignored; recent Japanese re-issue from limited HR/HM Legend 1000 series comes with an OBI strip, liner notes in the booklet, digital sound remaster, as well as three live bonuses recorded at The Hammersmith Odeon, London in 1987
