22 Jan

Note: This was originally posted to our old website, which is sadly as of NYE 2024 defunct and dead due to circumstances out of our control (RIP). See the link below for - the original video version of my interview with Olof, which was a fantastic discussion on the virtues of true metal, getting excited about the current Australian tour and his experience as a traditional heavy metaller through the past two decades of riffing.

Two-for-one. Hop on in, have a listen and if it sounds like a rad prospect (sure does to me), there’s links to discography, artist socials/sites, album and of course, tickets and tour dates.

Peace, Love and Grindcore (and Heavy Metal!) xoxo - Brady.

Sweden’s ENFORCER are one of the most influential heavy metal bands of the 2000s.

Formed in 2005, the band went against all trends as a larger than life-styled heavy metal band for the masses, in a world of metalcore and plastic power metal.

Quickly gaining success in the underground ENFORCER released their two first albums 2008-2010 and created a huge worldwide movement of traditional metal, later to be referred to as ’new wave of traditional metal’.

2012 ENFORCER signed a world-wide deal with metal giants Nuclear Blast and put out another three albums. Today, ENFORCER is one of the most renowned heavy metal bands of its' generation, and have toured the world countless of times with their furious and uncompromising heavy metal - leading the way for generations to come.

The blindsiding latest studio album Nostalgia, featuring 13 heavy metal anthems, throws ENFORCER back to their speed metal roots. Fusing extreme guitar riffing with catchy stadium choruses, ENFORCER are out to conquer the world with their sixth and most hotly anticipated album to date.
