Description
PESTILENCE – WARNING (1985)
With the cassette release Warning in 1985, which was recorded at Levanger Lydstudio in Ekne, the world was to be conquered. Pestilence, in its correct meaning, means something that spreads corruption, often of a moral nature. It was also the starting point for the Levanger band of the same name, which saw the light of day in the early 80s. It actually started with another band, called Black Rose, which became Pestilence with Peer Helge Taraldsen (Peer Gynt), Frank Scott and Roar Berg. As a heavy rock band, the band name was supposed to be grotesque. During the approximately four active years of Pestilence, several people were involved in the band. Among others, Hans Magnus Ryan, better known as Snah in Motorpsycho, played in the band for a year, as well as Ann Katrin Pettersen and Roar Berg. Frank Scott remembers particularly well the evening when Pestilence got to warm up an audience of 3,000 for TNT in Steinkjerhallen. “It was absolutely insane at that age,” he says, and does not rule out that the band could come back to life in the future. – We've talked about doing a reunion for both Black Rose and Pestilence. If we had continued with the band, I think we could be big today, says Taraldsen.
