A fast one backstage
“Three piece outfit from the deep woods of Sweden that will always do what the hell they please. Featuring members from: Nekrokült, Domination, Decapitate, (ex-) Vomitory and Gehennah.”
Ronnie Ripper and TURBOCHARGED ripping the place first thing on the second day. Good crowd concidering the all night partying and hangovers:) Happy to meet them again (last time at Metal Magic for some years ago), also I got to know Ronnies awesome gf Aga Zu;) Collected the guys with TURBOCHARGED patches (made by Rudolf K.)for a group photo while they were still standing:)

The street metal crazies Mr. Violence, Rob Stringburner, Charley Knuckleduster and Hellcop of GEHENNAH were in town to record the new album with Martin Ehrencrona / Studio Cobra.
We took some photos both in the studio and in the surroundings. Tobias from ENFORCER was there also and helped me to try out some blue lights I was planning to experiment with, but we spent quite a lot of time outside so in the end we were a bit in a hurry to get the final indoor pics done.
They had found a couple of really cool locations close by for the outdoor shots so we took our time.
Pictures for promotion and for the album.
(The featured image (top pic) is a collage some one made for the GEHENNAH webpage. Well made so snatched it xD)“Too Loud to Live, Too Drunk to Die” was released February 12th, 2016. Recorded at Studio Cobra in Stockholm, Sweden in July 2015

Had a good time and some great company with CURSED 13 guys and the fantastic staff at Br. Olssons Garlic & Shots. Especially Matti Into, who worked at the place and was the golden guy who fixed everything needed. Took some pics for the upcoming single “Into Ashes”, and we stayed afterwards for some food and beers.
CURSED 13 are basically the same guys as in GRÁ and it´s still black, but kinda different black.
The band played their last ever show at Mörkaste Småland – Slaktmånad October 2023.
BO G&S got new owners for some time ago and is now run by some guys from CANDLEMASS etc.

I already knew that Heljarmaðr (GRÁ, CURSED 13) was a great vocalist so I was really excited to see him with DARK FUNERAL ! He´s maybe not as huge as the rest of the guys (I mean they are really big!!:)) in the band but he´s got the most powerful voice and also handles the fronting business like a freaking boss. The band also added a new bass player Natt (ex-ANGREPP, WITHERSHIN). Kick ass show!:D

The great outdoors with Unleashed. (very) Icy & (very) cold.Pictures for promotion & the album “Dawn of The Nine”
Thankful for warmers & coffee:) The semla season starts way too early these days but we didn´t mind. So we had those also.
It was a shit cold day, so some hours outdoors required some Viking genes for sure. Pro guys! We tried out a couple of locations but forests and lakes didn´t win this time.
Lovely bunch of ppl but it was way too cold to spend any time for goofing about. Just a little bit:)Nuclear Blast are huge and still one of the most photographer friendly labels out there. They sent me first a care package with a couple of CD versions and a T shirt, and later on the vinyl:)

“With their blend of melody and brutality, the warriors of UNLEASHED are credited as the founding fathers of the Viking death metal movement from their inception back in 1989. Twenty-six years later, they have managed to unite the spirit of the Viking tradition with their merciless riffs and epic choruses – melting uncompromising brutality with hymns to Odin.”
