About Gallows End
Gallows End is a Swedish Heavy Metal band from Arvika, a small town located in western Sweden. Gallows End was formed in 2007 by guitarist, and later also vocalist, Thord Klarström and it was originally intended as a “one man” studio project. A three song demo was recorded at Thords 7th Gate studio in Arvika during the summer of 2007, after searching for a good vocalist for several months without any luck Thord decided to record the vocals himself. The reception of the songs were quite overwhelming and immediately attracted the attention from several labels. At the same time Thord had started thinking about putting together a real band and started searching for members to complete the line-up, Mikael (drums) were invited to join the band in the fall of 2007 and shortly after Peter Ogestad (ex silent scythe) joined as the bands bass player, the search for a guitarist continued until January 2008 when Dutch guitarist Niels Boerma filled the spot as a rhythm guitarist. The band started rehearsing but a few months later Peter left the band and was replaced by Jimmy Dahlgren (Chrome Machine) after a few months Jimmy decided that he wouldn’t have the time necessary to be in two hard working bands at the same time and left the band. In April 2008 Peter Samuelsson (ex Condemned) replaced Niels as the bands rythm guitarist. In June 2008 Mikael decided to leave the band and after auditioning some drummers we decided to bring Henrik Jägergren into the band. We are currently auditioning bass players but will carry on with session players until the right guy is found. 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. The band is currently negotiating terms for a record deal and expects to have a debut album ready for release at the end of 2008/early 2009. /Gallows End
