Axe Killers

Anyone have this Swedish band's 1984 demo, or at least know who was in the band and what tracks were on it?

    A band that plays AC / DC, Accept, Motley Crue, Judas Priest, etc.. also a lot of original songs. Played around twenty gigs in Söderhamn + some rock band competitions. The first demo was recorded with Christer Jansson in Northgate-studio "747 Strangers in the Night" (Saxon). The second demo, which also was the last was recorded in the rehearsal room with Stefan Thörnfeldt and Rolle Svensson.

    The Line-up was:
    Anders Åhlund - Vocals
    Peo Jonsson - Guitars
    Peter Orest - Guitars
    Olle Svensson - Bass
    Niklas Granrud - Drums

    Thanks, Strappado! I'll get in touch if I find them. So, were they from Söderhamn? Is the first demo from 1984? What year did the second one come out, and how many songs were on it?
