Renaissance of Fools

About Me

The history of the fools. …started in 1999 when Magnus Karlsson and Daniel Magdic (former guitarist of Pain of Salvation), together with Björn Tauman and Mathias Henrysson (now in the band Chainwreck) decided to start a band under the name Cudfish. They made a few shows and demos, but were all in all quite anonymous. The end of Cudfish came when Björn and Magnus decided to study at LAMA (Los Angeles Music Academy).Soon after Magnus had finished his studies at LAMA, Magnus and Daniel decided to start up a new band, and this was the beginning of Renaissance of fools. Magnus and Daniel started rehearse and compose. But as the band was not complete they couldn't come any further. The solution was to call upp Björn and ask if he was interested which he was. On a temporary basis Daniel did the vocals.After a gig at a local rock club a guy, let us call him Kjell, came up and said that he liked the songs and that if we ever thought of getting a lead singer, he would like to try out for the job.The three guys in the band sat down, with doubt in mind, and listened to some of Kjells work. He blew their brains out! After just a few weeks of rehearsals they all felt that it all fell in to place and that the band now was complete.The fools sound could be described as a combination of groove based heavy rock, such as Black Sabbath and King’s X, and progressive rock such as King crimson and Rush. Renaissance of fools is currently recording their debut album and preparing to hit the stage….. ..
