About the Artist
When drummer Richard Bång heard singer Magnus Arnar perform with Soul 78 at a festival in the summer 2004, he began formulating plans for a new band. At the same time Richard was invited as a guest musician on a new album his old band, Face Down, was recording. There, Richard ran into long time friends (and former Mozes bandmates), Jonas Wigstad (guitar) and Thomas Marklund (bass, backing vocals), who were also thinking about a new band. As the saying goes, "Sometimes you're born into greatness....".....and other times a twisted sort of greatness, happens while God is on his lunch break. This would be the second one mentioned. The 4 started playing together and the collaboration was raw........and pure........and hard core.......and breathtaking. Three years later, we managed to capture this living, breathing creature in our debut CD.
Recorded at Grand Studio in Gävle by Petter Diamant and mixed by Jocke Skog at Fear and Loathing Studio. Ground Mower is THRILLED at the plugged-in, all-out result that screams 'GREAT FUCKIN' ROCK'!!!!
Now everyone around the world can listen to the darkly gorgeous result!
