FULL FORCE - New Band Features CLOUDSCAPE Singer, Ex-HAMMERFALL Members
May 21, 2009, 15 years ago
Swedish melodic metallers FULL FORCE was formed in late 2008 by vocalist Mike Andersson (CLOUDSCAPE, SILENT MEMORIAL, ex-PLANET ALLIANCE), guitarist Stefan Elmgren (ex-HAMMERFALL) and bassist Magnus Rosén (ex-Hammerfall, X-WORLD/5).
According to a band bio: Mike and Magnus met for the first time in 2006 during the recordings of the Planet Alliance album. They became very good friends right away both musically and personally so, since the recording of that album Mike and Magnus have often talked about working more together. Same thing goes with long time friend Stefan Elmgren and Magnus after the departure of the well known metal band called Hammerfall.
They also talked often about starting up a new band together so, the course was more or less set in late 2008 when Magnus gave Mike a phone call asking him if he was interested in starting up a new band with him and Stefan.
A drummer for Full Force is already recruited for the band but, they won't make him official until later this year. They will also get either a second guitar player or a keyboard player later on.
Right now the main focus is writing songs for the album and they have come a long way already. There are already labels interested in signing Full Force but, all these details will be announced in appropriate time.
Meanwhile you can listen to a 2 minute demo sample of a song that most likely will end up on the album."
