Equinox is a Norwegian thrash metal band from Fredrikstad that started in 1987. The initial band members were Grim Stene (guitar/vocals), Ragnar 'Raggen' Westin (drums) and Skule Stene (bass guitar) who were all ex-Rebellion members. In 1988 Tommy Skarning joined as a second guitarist. On the album Labyrinth Tommy was no longer with the band, and Raggen was exchanged with Jørn Wangsholm. The band broke up in 1995.
On 15 November 2017 Equinox announced that they were doing an exclusive comeback concert at the Tons of Rock Festival in Halden with the original band members.[1]
