Bio
Gallows End is a Heavy Metal band from Arvika/Karlstad located in western Sweden and was
formed in the summer of 2007 by guitarist/vocalist Thord klarström. Gallows End was intended as a one man project. During September 2007 Thord recorded at three-track promo
The promo featured three songs of aggressive yet melodic heavy metal and immediately attracted the attention from several labels around the world. Due to the great interest for these songs Thord decided to put together a real band and after several months of searching for the right guys the band started rehearsing and writing new material, after some member changes the current line up features:
Thord Klarström – Vocals/Guitar
Peter Samuelsson – Guitar
Niklas Nord – Bass
Mikael Karlsson – Drums
In October of 2008 Gallows End signed a record deal with ohio based metal-label Farvahar Records LLC and are currently recording their first album due for release in spring 2009
The bands musical vision is to create quality heavy metal, heavily influenced by classic metal acts like Judas Priest, Accept, Iron Maiden etc. but also has influences from more recent bands like Sinergy and Gamma Ray, the style could be described as fast, aggressive but still melodic heavy metal.
Some words about Gallows End from others:
“When a band describes itself as "Pure Fucking Heavy Metal", what else is there to say? Of course, it’s good if the band can actually back up that claim, and Sweden’s` Gallows End back it up in spades!! The band derives their sound straight from the `eighties, though less nostalgic than many of their peers. Crunching guitars, flashy riffs and neck-snapping tempos, it’s all here! This is but a taste of things to come!” – West side Dave
“Gallows End may have started as a one-man effort but with a loyal and dedicated supportive cast it can go far in this business and make memorable Metal tunes come to life that we'll be enjoying for many years to come. These guys will be planting their victorious "Unborne Flag" atop every obstacle on their way to the top” – Datis Aleea - Farvahar Records LLC
“I’ve been impressed lately as to the amount of power metal
Sweden has been pumping out, and these guys don’t disappoint,
I can’t wait for a full length album!” – QMII – The MetalMadMan
