Playing drums in:
LIONS SHARE
FACESHIFT
NAILSTATE
I'm a metal/rock/pop drummer from Stockholm Sweden. Equally comfortable thrashing out blasting double bass patterns as I am cruising along Porcaro style.
My band FACESHIFT is releasing its debut album "Reconcile" in the fall of 2007.
I also play drums in the band NAILSTATE, which features members from such bands as Defleshed, Dark Funeral and Darkane. NAILSTATE will be recording its first demo shortly, we're now in pre production.
Currently I also occupy the drum throne for LIONS SHARE and have been playing numerous live shows in support of their critically acclaimed comeback album "Emotional Coma" which came out in June of 2007. Some of the live highlights so far have been:
*Sweden Rock Festival, June 2007
*Magic Cirle Festival (Germany), July 2007
*Metal Heart Festival (Norway), August 2007
These have been some amazing experiences that have not only put me on enormous stages alongside acts such as Testament, Queensryche, Annihilator, Manowar, Nevermore, U.D.O., Therion, Candlemass, Gamma Ray, Behemoth, Backyard Babies among others, I have also had the priviledge of performing to crowds in excess of 10.000 people!
As if that was not enough, I have also formed the band LIES BLEEDING with my wife Helene, who is an amazing singer (she can be heard on "Wither" by my former band Eternal Oath as well as on the upcoming "Reconcile" album). We are in pre production of our first demo also and the music is kick ass metal with huge choruses and lots of harmonic vocals with both our voices.
These are some other bands/projects that I have been affiliated with through the years:
*Passive 69 - 2000-03, Contemporary metal
*Brak & Flamm - 2003-present, Rock/pop/disco party covers
*Sonic Rocket - 1998-?, All Star Music Academy pop/soul band
*Pungtera - 1998-2001, Pantera covers
... not to mention countless appearances on fellow students recordings, demos, stage shows, and gigs at Stockhoms finest water hole: Pub Anchor!!!
I was educated at the Royal College of Music in Stockholm and have been teaching music since 2000. I live in a Stockholm suburb with my wife and our two little sons.
