Photoshoot 18th of august 2007.
Promos & pictures for “Last Human Standing”, release December 2007
Many hours in and outside the studio. A fun but long and exhausting day with the guys:)

 

Somewhat odd facts: “Stockholm, Sweden based act Skellington released their debut album Last Human Standing back in 2007, which surprisingly went directly to No 1 at the Scandinavian Megastores website charts for Most Bought Heavy Metal Album. And it stayed there on the No 1 spot for four weeks in a row. But instead of taking the next logical step the band instead ended up with that classic tale of record company problems. This recording features Andy K (Anders Häggkvist) from Eternia and Destynation” – TPL Records

“D´EspairsRay a Japanese visual kei rock band. The lineup of Hizumi on vocals, Karyu on guitar, Zero on bass and Tsukasa on drums”

In Palermo I went to the Capuccini catacombs…lots of corpses hanging on the walls and lying on the shelves. Pretty cool place=)
Totally forbidden to take pics though…so I took only a couple…;))
It haven´t always been forbidden to take pics in the catacombs, so there are some pics on various sites on the net. Like this one

What else…? My summer vacation  is almost over and I don´t feel so good about it:(   But that´s life, I guess….
There´s been some good things this summer, so can´t complain.  And there´s still
some more left…like a trip to the highest waterfall in Sweden this weekend.
A few days of nature, mosquitos and whoknowswhat…
Metalthings soon to come:  promopics for Skellington , Dir en Grey at Klubben, Behemoth coming later on…Swedish Metal Expo ( no booth this year. Too bad…It was really fun last year=)) ).
And stuff like that.

Just wanted to tell you that some Peace & Love pics are posted on extreMMetal.se.

Got pics on this guy:

and this guy:

…and on a few more guys…

Another thing: There´s some changes in General Surgery´s lineup if you haven´t noticed! Dr. Sahlström (formerly known as Erik Tormentor) is the new vocalist in the band and today they took off to perform at the Obscene Extreme festival in Trutnov (don´t ask me to spell the name of the country!! You go and find out yourselves)
And I quote:

Dr. McWilliams out, Dr. Sahlström in.

Once again, our resident alcoholic Scottish doctor has decided to take leave of the band. Due to “administrative problems pertaining to morgue-related issues” (he’s too busy getting intoxicated to be of any use) he has finally broken down and given up his active duties in the band.

The torch has been handed over to new pathological talent, Dr. Erik Sahlström (Maze of Torment, Serpent Obscene). Rest assured he has been schooled well, and is already a nervous wreck from various initiation ceremonies to our wonderful world of gore.

The rest of it for you to read right HERE. One newly recorded song with Dr. Sahlström is also uploaded so check it out and grind your ass off!!:)))


The new General Surgery lineup

After taking some pics on GS i went down to Klubben to take some pics on japanese D´EspairsRay. I was just on time, schwooshed in, took some pics and off i went. The first time ever I didn´t stay to see the show, but I was in a real hurry. And hungry.
Don´t EVER go to Aspudden if you want some food after 21.00 PM!!! All the places are closed. You just waste your time driving around like we did. We wanted some tandoori chicken but ended up at McDonald´s in Västberga.
Gahhh!!! It didn´t make us happy! Less hungry, though:)

And finally: a pic on this guy too:
