An excerpt from the liner notes written by by John Strednansky read:

Do you remember the days when the mention of a new heavy metal band from Sweden resulted in a thrilling electric shock to the nervous system? Swedish Metal always had its ”sound”, its ”feel” a unique creativity injected with tremendous energy and often tingling rawness, but always with plenty of huge hooks, riffs and terrific melodies. And make no mistake, this sound owes its origin, itís claim to fame, to Silver Mountain!

While early seventies hard rock acts like November showed that Sweden could rock, they were overshadowed by the pop music in the likes of Abba. Then, in the early 80s, the hard rock movement in this Nordic landscape finally set new traditions and standards. No band defined this clearer than a little Swedish four-piece called Silver Mountain.They quickly became to Sweden what METALLICA were to the US, and IRON MAIDEN were to England. Formed in the late seventies by guitar virtuoso Jonas Hansson, whose influences ranged from RAINBOW to the New Wave Of British Heavy Metal, Silver Mountain rapidly scaled the ladder to became the new heroes of the Swedish metal explosion of a decade when heavy metal ruled the planet.

Silver Mountain is now back together and will be available for festival appearances and more. The band has already been confirmed to appear at next year's edition of the Headbangers Open Air festival, which will take place in Brande-Hörnerkirchen, Germany.

Silver Mountain's 2011 lineup:

Jonas Hansson – guitar, vocals

Per Stadin - bass

Erik Björn Nielsen - keyboards
