Finnish Power Metal from Sweden. Yep, it exists. In this case we’re talking about Oz, a Heavy Metal band formed in 1977 in the Finnish town of Nakkila. The band released albums from 1982 to 1991, then put a lid on it and quit.

Years and years passed, until in early 2010 the five-pieced group came back together, by now relocated to Sweden. Their first completely newly written song is a fact for some months now, and has been released in a music video that we’ll share past the jump. The single is just a first little appetizer for the band’s planned new studio album Greatezt Blitz, to be released in the spring of 2011. I guess that pretty much means any time now.

Anyway, the music video features a beautiful 1970-1974 Plymouth Barracuda – I suspect it’s a Hemi. So not only is the song a classic NWOBHM-sounding piece of tastiness, there’s also a snazzy car involved. As a muscle car fan, I can appreciate such things!

The song the band has recently released was titled Dominator. The video is found below. Said awesome car, flames, hair, loads of drama and the beautifully round butt of a lady. Nothing you haven’t seen before, but nothing you should soon get enough of either – at least not of the car and the ass.

We’ll leave you with the link to the band’s official website. Enjoy.
