Enforcer's Olof Wikstrand: "Everything was better in the 80s!"

“I love metal but I don’t like the 90s!” said Enforcer’s Olof Wikstrand in his second interview with Stefan Nilsson of Roppongi Rocks during the band’s recent fourth tour of Japan. Well-known for his love for heavy metal the way it was played in the 1980s, Olof is carrying that legacy into the future. “We got to be honest here: everything was better in the 80s when it comes to music at least.” Enforcer was founded in Arvika, Sweden in 2004. Over the years with a bunch of excellent albums and relentless global touring, the band has become well-known as part of a new wave of traditional heavy metal. The band debuted with “Into the Night” in 2008 and its most recent release was 2023’s “Nostalgia”. They recently signed with Napalm Records and a new album is being worked on. The band’s current line-up consists of Olof Wikstrand on guitar and vocals, his brother Jonas Wikstrand on drums, Jonathan Nordwall on guitar and Garth Condit on bass. This interview was filmed in Koenji, Tokyo, Japan on 10th January 2025. #heavymetal #80smetal #metal #japantour #guitarist #vocalist #frontman #interview #roppongirocks   / enforcerofficial     / enforcerofficial   https://x.com/enforcermetal https://www.enforcerofficial.com
