Sammlung: Thor

Thor is a Canadian heavy metal band formed in the late 1970s, led by bodybuilder, actor, and musician Jon Mikl Thor. Known for their theatrical stage presence, which often includes feats of strength like bending steel bars and smashing bricks, Thor quickly gained attention for their over-the-top performances and comic book-inspired imagery. The band’s blend of traditional heavy metal with elements of glam rock and power metal resulted in cult classics like Only the Strong (1985) and Unchained (1983). With their high-energy anthems and larger-than-life persona, Thor became a staple in the underground metal scene. Despite various lineup changes, Jon Mikl Thor has kept the band active over the decades, releasing new material and performing live, continuing to entertain fans with their unique brand of metal.
