October 2014. Karlstad. Pics for promotion & album “Forensic Nightmares” 2015

Travelled to Karlstad for a shoot with CUT UP. The new band of Tobias and Erik, guys i knew from VOMITORY. A rainy october day in the Karlskogian (?) woods. But Tobias brought a huge thermos with coffee so all good. Got presents also!! CD´s and DVD´s. The pics turned out alright and overall it was a day well spent:)

The debut album will be out in the end of June 2015 (Metal Blade Records) and they are available for bookings!!!

GOATESS photo shoot Stockholm April 5th 2014 on the grounds of a former lunatic asylum where they also have their rehearsal studio. Makes sense:D
Great guys to hang out with for a day and after the shoot we had a couple of beers and I got myself a private show when they had the last rehearsal for the upcoming gig at Roadburn. The full setlist from the beginning to the end. Pretty awesome:)

Photo shoot in Stockholm at an abandoned subway tunnel in the end of March 2014.

The reason for getting a bunch of new photos was the “new” vocalist Anders Strokirk (in the band 1992-1994 = The Nocturnal Silence) When I went to the shoot, i had no idea who the new vocalist would be. So cool surprise and concidering the circumstances, the best possible choice to get Anders back in the band again.
Lots of heavy graffiti to remove from the pictures but I´m quite happy how they turned out:) NECROPHOBIC made the announcement of Andreas return on their Facebook the 4th of April 2014.

 

Members: Anders Strokirk – Vocals Alexander Friberg – Bass Fredrik Folkare – Lead & Rhythm Guitar Joakim Sterner – Drums

COLOSSUS from Stockholm play Progressive Stoner/Sludge Metal since 2008, according to Metal Archives.
A photo shoot in THE library in Sthlm wasn´t exactly the easiest. For several reasons. We had to be quiet, stay out of the way etc. So no playing around.

We did some try out pictures but the only ones working for the purpose were taken in the entrance which looks a bit like an egyptian grave vault:D

The guys in TORMENTED don´t live in town so we scheduled the shoot when they were playing a gig here. Also the venue worked out well being an Old Town basement and all. So we did some shooting for promo and album [Death Awaits 2013] The album gatefold picture is a shot we took later in the dressing room and the one on the back cover is from the actual shoot. Some of the pics made themselves useful as promotional ones.

Some pictures for staff of the new club Püssy A Go Go. The first time I met them at Debaser Slussen, Stockholm (In Solitude + Reveal gig)

 

Later Lisa and Alexandra got an own place in The Liffeys basement in Old Town and had some legendary years there. Many of the best gigs I´ve ever seen was at that place. Or Nalen Klubb, the main Nalen and a couple of other places they used for some specific gigs @ events.

 

The unofficial opening for the basement was with Fester (swe), General Surgery + Nirvana 2002 the 4th of August 2012. The were still some job to do at the venue but the sound worked so all good:)) P.A.G.G. later evolved to Tänk På Döden, Black Harvest and Bored To Death Bookings and continued to be responsible for shitloads of great events.
