Album Notes Silver Mountain includes: Jonas Hansson (vocals, guitar), Jens Johansson (keyboards); Per Stadin (bass); Anders Johansson (drums). Named after a song by Ritchie Blacmore's Rainbow group, Silver Mountain is considered one of the great cult bands of the 1980s. This Swedish group was an early poineer in the genre that became known as Neo-Classical Heavy Metal. This Japanese enhance reissue of thier 2003 release features a bonus track and a video clip of "Prophet of Doom." This is an Enhanced CD, which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files. Domestically available for the first time on CD is the debut release by Sweden's Silver Mountain. Originally released in 1983, SHAKIN' BRAINS was a landmark release, as it was among the first albums to introduce melodic power metal to Sweden's shores. Brandishing a sound that combined Deep Purple with New Wave of British Heavy Metal, Silver Mountain's debut helped usher in a style of metal that permeates the scene to this day. The band also employed elements of classical music, a tendency that would later be made famous by fellow Swede Yngwie Malmsteen. SHAKIN' BRAINS also featured future Malmsteen alumni Jens Johansson (Dio, Stratovarius) and his brother Anders Johansson (Hammerfall, Empire).
