Profile Nordic Light is a hard rock group from Göteborg that was formed by Christer Mentzer and Michael Von Knorring in the mid 80s . The group began under the name Mentzer until their manager Börje Forsberg suggested that they change to the current name. Nordic Light found success in both Europe and Japan . They released an album on Sonet Records back in 1987, titled “Shadows from the Wilderness” , and played on the disc Scandinavium Metal Attack II.
Nordic Light appeared also with the song “No Escape” in the Italian film “Opera” in 1987. All the songs are incredible with keyboard filled grooves and fitting guitar solos. The album start with a pounding metal song “It Hurts” with nice melodies and after that all the rest are increible too. I you like bands like Mindless Sinner, early Europe (first two albums), TNT (knights of the New Thunder era), AxeWitch and stuff like that you will love this album.
