Overview: 1985 in South Korea (often referred to as "the 1985") is a metal band, whose styles range from ominous doom metal to frantic thrash metal to uplifting power metal. Founded in 2007 after a game of football, they have been a minor success in Nordic and Baltic nations.
Law & Order: Special Victims Unit is their fourth studio album, released in 2019. Five years had passed since their last one, Elephant Seal had been released. Former bassist Leslie Ward had been paralyzed in his right arm in a train crash, forcing him to step down. This is, thus, Edward H. Dewey's debut for the band. (He had, however, already performed with Screaming Skull.)
The first single released from the album is the long, proggish track "Eriosema". Dewey's bass performance, including his solo at the 7-minute mark, had the entire fandom sold on his skill. Other popular tracks from the album include "Conventional Weapon", made popular by a Sherlock Bones AMV, and "Ridge Meadow Flames", which was made the ice hockey team's anthem.
The band were sued by NBC for usage of the name of their series without permission. However, executive producer Dick Wolf was a fan of the album, and placed several songs within the show, even offering The 1985 cameos in an episode. The band declined, but got permission to release a "Deluxe Soundtrack Edition", which featured a cover of "Theme of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit" and a brand-new song, "...but the clouds...".
The album also marked the start of 1985 in South Korea's world tour, starting in Seoul and ending in Oslo. Tickets sold well, but the band only sold out to max capacity in Sapporo, much to Astrup's confusion. He ranted about it on a web-based talk show and become a minor meme in the Law & Order and Far Cry fandoms.
