TNT / Tell No Tales (1987)

After the heavy "Knights of the New Thunder ", Norway's TNT releasing the "Tell No Tales" album in 1987.
A more commercial sound in this one, great song writing and technically awesome! Tony Harnell's voice is simply amazing with his high pitched octaves and his overall amazing performances. LeTekro's guitar technique is from outter space, the man was probably one of the most high-skilled guitarists in the world. For me the duo of Harnell and LeTekro were one of the more successfull duos in the heavy scene back then.
About the songs here, 'Tell No Tales ' is ,maybe, one of the heaviest songs that this band has ever recorded! 'Ten Thousand Lovers in One ' and 'Listen to Your Heart ' were a couple of big-hits of the band, both with catchy choruses and very good melodies. 'Everyone's a Star ' is a heavy hitter, and 'Northern Lights ' is amazing! All in all one of the best albums of TNT.
HeavyParadise's Rating: 9/10
