One day the two friends met up on the way to the great city
of Gothenburg.
They started chatting and suddenly Jonas got the idea of starting a
band.
Mattias agreed immediately, since he'd wanted som kind of group to
play with.
The two started brainstorming about the band and what it would be
about.
"What kind of music do you wanna play?",
"Who will do what?",
"Do we have a rehearsal room somewhere to make use of?"
"Who will do the drumming".
The first name, for the last question, they came up with was Jonas'
brother
David who also was with them in town. He said yes, but not permanent.
He wanted to be just a sessiondrummer that they could use in the studio
and maybe, maybe
live sometime... (if they're ever going to do a live-show...).
The following Sunday Mattias went home to Jonas with his
acoustic guitar
as a backpack.
They started collaborating and transform the living room into
a rehearsal room.
Jonas took out his guitar, amp and effect-pedal and plugged
it in, choosed a nice, disted sound and played a riff taken from the
air.
And there they were.
After some time of playing spontaneously Jonas came
up with a riff that blew Mattias away.
It was great! And they started building a song on that riff, using
a acoustic intro that Mattias by half had come up with the day before
at his classmate Henriks' home.
They also started discuss lyrics and they wrote down the refrain
and the first half of the first verse as they sat.
Yes, this was how it began...
