That's true, when their first album (TNT) is sung on Norwegian, they didn't get abroad with it, so in some case you're right about Knights of the Thunder was their first international album, but the second anyway :) Have you heard the first norwegian album? I can rip it for you if you like :)

@bentyman Yeah i have a copy of it, though the only song i remember was the really cheesy opening track, "Harley Davidson". It was an okay record if you could get past it the language barrier. Plus, the early versions of Eddie and USA were good enough to be worth checking out.

Knights of the New Thunder is NOT the debut album from TNT. The debut album is all in Norwegian and are titled TNT. The first singer of TNT was Dag Ingebrigtsen.

@bentyman Yes that's true, but that record wasn't widely available and never made a dent outside of it's country of origin in Norway. Knights of the New Thunder was their first album with American singer Tony Harnell and bass player Morty Black, which is considered the definitive line-up. A few songs from 1982's TNT, were rewritten by Harnell with "Eddie" and "USA" re-recorded entirely.
