Band:

Coldworker

BiografieJanuary 2006: About a year after Nasum called it the quits, drummer Anders Jakobson started looking for members for a new grinding band. After posting in his blog at nasum.com, Anders Bertilsson (Ruin) - vague acquaintance to Jakobson - offered to play the guitar in the band. At the same time Relentless´s bass player Oskar P�lsson was looking for a session drummer for a possible solo demo. He asked Jakobson who informed him about the new grinding band plans and the two ideas were merged into one. The three members started to send riffs back and forth building up a small library of ideas.


February 2006: The first rehearsal took place on the 2nd and a few songs were written from the library of riffs. The band continued to write songs and do rehearsals the following weeks. A decision to add a second guitar player was taken and the band announced for a forth member in Jakobson´s blog.


March 2006: Andr� Alvinzi (Carnal Grief) joined the band as the second guitarist. As the fourth songwriter in the band, Alvinzi rapidly added the last piece to Coldworker´s puzzle of sound, introducing some more technical riffs into the grinding death metal.


April 2006: Early in the month the bands name - Coldworker - is announced and later in April Joel Fornbrant (ex-Phobos) joins the band on vocals. After trying Anders Bertilsson as the singer, Coldworker realised that is would be best for the band and the music to have a separate singer. As a five-piece the band continued to write and work on the songs.


June 2006: Coldworker did it´s first show together with Gadget and Radioskugga and then immediately started recording their first album "The Contaminated Void".

COLDWORKER haben ihrem exzellenten Debütalbum einen echten Kracher folgen lassen, „Rotting Paradise“ ist zweifellos eines der besten und intensivsten Death Metal-Alben des Jahres. Bandkopf Anders träumt zwar von einer perfekten Welt, ist aber mit dem Resultat in der realen Welt sehr zufrieden, nur eine Tour fehlt noch zu seinem Glück.

Ein Jahr Pause hat NASUM-Drummer Anders Jakobson nach dem Tod seines Bandkollegen Mieszko gebraucht, bevor er wieder Musik machen konnte und wollte. Mit vier neuen Musiker gibt es unter dem Namen COLDWORKER eine brutale Death/ Grind-Abrissbirne, die die Schweden in Kürze als Support von ARCH ENEMY auch live präsentieren werden.
