Originally put together as an instrumental rock trio in 1995 by drummer Federico de Costa, guitarist Filip Norman and bassplayer Patrik Persson , music was spontaneously jammed out with a common thread of explosive psychedelic rock.
During the golden age of the MTV endorsed lumberjack look, the Swedish music scene had little to offer a instrumental act, and Robin Kvist soon joined in and vocalised in the mother tounge.
The unique stylings of QOPH started to come together and the band toured excessively on the Swedish live music scene during the following years.
The bands debut effort, Kalejdoskopiska Aktiviteter (Record Heaven, 1998), sold a few thousand copies internationally, even though only a handful of the listeners understood Swedish.
QOPH's second album "Pyrola", on the other hand, delivers a less subliminal message in English. It was released in Sweden, Germany and Japan in 2004 & 2005.
At the moment QOPH are recording new songs for their 3rd, yet untitled, album.
