Description:

The band that started the Swedish wave of heavy metal is back: HEAVY LOAD! Four decades have passed since HEAVY LOAD released their latest album: Stronger than Evil (1983). Years before the rest of the northern world, their songs ventured into Viking themes and existential lyrics, spearheading a movement way ahead of its time. The compositions are dramatic and render a great variety of moods, while passionate innovation and creative fervor are always shining bright in every song on the album â?? pioneering 101! HEAVY LOAD was established in Stockholm during the grim winter of 1974-1975 by the two brothers Ragne Wahlquist (vocals, guitars and keyboards) and StyrbjÃ¶rn Wahlquist (vocals and drums). The vision and the passion of the Wahlquist brothers was always the kernel of the bandâ??s determined drive â?? their drive to venture out on musical journeys and to spread their music and lyrics to the world. The two inventive minds wouldnâ??t have outsiders get in the way of shaping their own future as heavy metal pioneers: As producers and owners of the Thunderload Studio, theyâ??ve shaped a sound that would quickly become the blueprint for European doom metal, starting with Candelmassâ?? groundbreaking Epicus Doomicus Metallicus album and followed by the bandâ??s iconic Nightfall. And with Yngwie Malmsteen, Morbid and Hammerfall, the fruitful exploration of new ground wouldnâ??t stop. - .. STORM

40 years have passed since Heavy Load released their latest all new album, "Stronger than Evil" (1983). Heavy Load's comeback album "Riders of the Ancient Storm" rings of their well-known sound and songwriting. Still, many songs echo these pioneers' famous Viking themes and existential lyrics. The compositions are dramatic and render a great variety of moods. At the same time, passionate innovation and creative fervour shine bright in every song on the comeback album.
