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:)
We had a great time and I also found a new pizzaplace near the studio. All this time and I ever even saw the place??

 

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

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:

Photo shoot with SERPENT OBSCENE ( 1997 – 2006)  in April 2005.  Shot the outdoor pics at an old (abandoned) tuberculosis hospital and at some sandpits. We also climbed up in a water towerFor the indoor shots we occupied the local youth centre and used their smoke machine.
Additional note: The pizzaplace where we went for lunch made pentagrams in bearnaise on the pizzas m/.
One of the smoky pics ended up on the album “Chaos Reign Supreme” (cover art made by the great Joe Petagno) and the whatever pics on the album are also by me.
Trivia: The winged Serpent Obscene skull was made by Erik Tormentor and it´s also used here and there in “Swedish Death Metal”, the book by Daniel Ekeroth (the spikes removed, tho).
The band split up after releasing the album and I´m still not over it! No release gigs, no nothing.
Erik “Tormentor” Sahlström – V / Johan Thörngren – G Nicklas Eriksson – G / Jonny Putrid – B / Jonas Eriksson – D

Sometime in the spring 2004, me and my friend Erik Destormo marched out to the deep dark woods.

 

It was night, full moon, snow and cold and we got with us in a plastic bag an axe and a real human skull Erik had borrowed from some guy. And also some stuff to make a few torches. We thought if somebody stops us and ask what the hell we are doing, we tell that we are on our way to the Convent….

 

Our mission: to take some pics for the upcoming Deceiver album. And so we did…with a sucky camera at a horses (Gubben) grave somewhere in the darkness. It was really spooky and I was afraid of Blair Witch and wild boars.
The pics appeared on three Deceiver albums. Erik left the band after the first one was released.
End of story…
The band pic below is the sole survivor from the band shoot earlier the same year. Have no clue what happened to the original pictures and Erik Destormo is not even included in this one. Photo taken in Strängnäs.
Line up: Crille Lundin Bass Magnus “Flingan” Flink Drums Peter Karlsson Guitars Destormo Vocals

Later we painted (or Erik did…) a new backdrop for Deceiver…in real blood of course.
