Here is the TNT track 'USA' with Dag Ingebrigtsen, the band's founder and original vocalist, singing the song in english. The song originally appeared on the band's first self-titled album, released in 1982, where all lyrics & vocals were in norwegian. The band re-recorded the song in 1983/84 with new bassplayer Morten Skaget (aka. Morty Black) with four other of the band's tracks from their first album, to try get more international attention. The band then released a self-released limited EP in early 1984, with 5 of the tracks from their first album, but with english lyrics/vocals. The band also did a lot of demo tapes around 1983/84 for their second album 'Knights of the New Thunder', with Ingebrigtsen writing most lyrics. Dag Ingebrigtsen however left the band in 1984 before recording of their second album started, and then handled the microphone over to Tony Harnell, whom would rewrite most of Dag's lyrics on the 'Knights of the New Thunder'-album. This song ('USA') would appear on the band's second album with Harnell singing it. Another track from the band's first album, 'Eddie' would also end up as a bonus track on the US edition of the album 'Knights of the New Thunder'.
This rare EP had the following tracklist:
1. Harley Davidson
2. USA
3. Rats
4. Prelude (Fuzz Minor)
5. Eddie
Enjoy!
