ABOUT THIS ALBUM


Album Notes
Overdrive was formed in 1980 and released their first MLP Reflexions in 1981 (a rare and expensive item today). In 1983 the debut, Metal Attack, was released and immediately placed Overdrive on the Scandinavian map of classic heavy metal bands.
In 1984 the second album Swords And Axes saw the light of day. An album that received stunning reviews throughout Europe and the US. The band split in 1985, but reformed in 2003 and are still an active hard rocking unit with another bucnh of albums under their skin. See www.overdrive.se for further info.
This version of Swords And Axes features bonus tracks. Four tracks recorded in 1994, when the band partly reformed with a new singer, and the original singer on bass, plus two rehearsal demos for what was to become the band's third album in 1985.
Pelle Thuresson: vocals
Janne Stark: guitar
