Persuader

It was in 1997 that Persuader formed, with the aim of making "heavy metal, endowed with a more aggressive attitude". In 1998, the band released a demo, Visions and dreams, which received good reviews from various magazines and/or webzines. The hunter, the band's first real album, came out in 2000, and was just as well received. In 2001, the band decided to part ways with Pekka Kiviaho, due to differences of point of view. The latter was replaced by Emil Norberg. In 2004 their second album, Evolution Purgatory, came out. It was at the end of this album that Persuader decided to bring a second guitarist into its line-up, and it was thus Daniel Sunbom, a longtime friend of Emil Norberg, who joined the band. In 2006, their third album, When Eden burns, came out. It is oriented in a thrash metal or even speed metal style.
