PAST
White Lord Jesus was originally formed in Oslo by Tristan Christ (Arvid Skancke-Knutsen) and Tognazzi (Thomas Robsahm) in the autumn of 1983. They had just left their bands Dynamo Forte (from Risør) and Brød & Sirkus (from Arendal). White Lord Jesus became a part of the ”cassette movement” which started in Norway at the beginning of the eighties. In 1984 White Lord Jesus made their live-debut and released the cassette Amen, which was very well received, and now seen as one of the best cassettes from the era. In 1985 the band split.
