Hello!!
Workwork as usually, but here´s some photonews:
Tuesday (1st of May): photosession with Nattas. Hours and hours (well…we also spent some time at McDonalds:)) of hard work and about 2-300 pics. Lots of fun, though=))

Thursday (3rd of May): Maze of Torment & Nattas at Anchor.
It was so nice to see Sophie again and see the bands. It´s quite hard to take pics at Anchor. It´s very small and I always have to use my 50/1.8. I like more wideangle…
Here´s some:

Den 1:a Maj 2007 var jag och grabbarna i NATTAS instängda i studion för några timmar (minus minst en timme på Donken).

Vi skulle åstadkomma promopics och nånting för kommande plattan.
Dom nya studioblixtarna hade inte kommit ännu så man fick klara sig med en gammal som dock funkade rimligt bra efter säkringsbyte.

The greenest, meanest thrashband the mankind ever known!!
They were late, the singer suffered from a serious hangover after partying to 6 in the morning and they got tons of bones, skulls, chains, bullets and all kinds of HeavyMetal-funstuff in a bag when they arrived (at last) to the studio.
It was really fun, though=) And I´m still the Presi of the Officially Extremely Unofficial Vörgus Fanclub. My friend Anders is the Dent…

I think we did good;))
Have to take care of the rest of the pics, too.
I´ve got a bunch of them just laying around…

P.S. Vörgus are playing somewhere in Farsta the 17:th of march!!

With the talented mr. Krauze as our Actor, me and Erik Tormentor went down to the studio for shooting some pics for the new Maze of Torment album.

Kola Krauze is a real deal and have performed at places like Dramaten (THE theater in Stockholm) and such. It was a real pleasure to work with him, so I also took some pics just because. The gun was almost real…you just couldn´t shoot with it;)

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.

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.

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