"Silver Mountain" manga vol. 1 cover by Kazuhiro Fujita (Karakuri Circus, Ushio & Tora)
Fantasy Action about two old martial artists - eternal rivals - both getting transported to a twisted fantasy world by a Tengu. Not only that but the old men have been turned into young boys too! To find a way back to Tokyo, the two must climb a huge mountain standing tall in this strange world and reach the top no matter what.
Legend: Fröm the Fjörds (1979)
It's been quite some time since I've discovered a 'Graybeard Metal' obscurity as tantalizing and, ultimately, as rewarding as Legend's Fröm the Fjörds (all hail the gratuitous umlauts!), which first appeared as a private pressing in 1979.
Not to be confused with any number of musical entities sharing this overused name (Discogs catalogs over 100 of them!), this Legend hailed from New Haven, Connecticut, and consisted of Kevin Nugent (double-necked guitar and vocals), Fred Melillo (fretted and fretless bass), and Raymond Frigon (superhuman drums).
As its title indicates, Fröm the Fjörds conjured up a prescient Viking metal vision scored to the castle metal majesty of Rainbow and progressive musicianship of Rush, so if citing those two bands doesn't have you racing to Discogs, I don't know what will.
Maybe mentioning like-minded near-contemporaries like Cirith Ungol and Manilla Road will do the trick, or perhaps I should just let you be swept away by epic sonic adventures such as "The Golden Bell" (of course there are ominous chiming bells), "Against the Gods," and the eight-minute title cut (which drifts into jazz fusion midway through).
All of these navigate the turbulent waters where '70s and '80s musical tides intersect, and yet it's the album's very first cut, "The Destroyer," that will henceforth appear in every 'Top Ten '70s Heavy Metal Songs You've Probably Never Heard' list I ever compile.
Almost as good is the sword-and-sorcery head-banger "The Wizard's Vengeance" (later covered by Slough Feg, its slashing staccato riffs tease the looming N.W.O.B.H.M.), and the trio show a sense of humor by adding cliche country-western bookends to the album's frantic, most conventional hard rocker, "R.A.R.Z."
And rounding out the set are a pair of instrumentals, "The Confrontation" and jazzy, train-themed "The Iron Horse," that further showcase the three musicians' astonishing skills -- especially Frigon, who lets loose on the latter with a full-blown drum solo.
Making all this even more impressive, Legend were active for an exceedingly brief moment in time: forming in 1978 as Judge (named after original bassist John Judge) before changing names in '79, recording Fröm the Fjörds, and disbanding before year's end.
Frigon and Melillo went on to enjoy lengthy, if mostly behind-the-scenes careers as session musicians, but the magnificently afro'ed Nugent sadly passed away in 1983 at the age of 26, though I couldn't find the cause -- anyone?
As for Fröm the Fjörds, it has since justifiably earned cult album status been reissued in multiple guises, including a another version expanded with unreleased demos like the frankly off-point "The Court Jester" and the somewhat better "Aramis, the Lover."
Oh, and the album's cover art provides some more trivia, as it was designed by one Ioannis Vassilopoulos, who later crafted the artwork for fellow Connecticuters (yes, that's a word) Fates Warning's The Spectre Within and Awaken the Guardian.
Legendary in every way!

Wednesday, August 9: Silver Mountain, “Aftermath”
Shakin’ Brains was the only Silver Mountain record to feature Jens and Anders Johansson, both of whom soon joined fellow ex-member Yngwie Malmsteen and his Rising Force collective, and would subsequently build up considerable individual resumes. As such, the record offered the world the first taste of their talents, and “Aftermath” showcased the brothers’ clear love for all things Ritchie Blackmore (which made the Malmsteen connection make that much more sense), since the tune was as pure an homage to Rainbow Rising as Swedish metal in the early ‘80s came. Jonas Hansson was no Ronnie James Dio, but his singing was committed and enthusiastic, ably supporting the keyboard-driven mayhem and percussive dynamics. “Aftermath” set the stage for a good chunk of the power metal that emerged over the next 15 years, rendering Silver Mountain early developers of the form.
