| Band biography |
Just a few weeks before the first release Andreas decided to leave the band and was replaced by Roger Raw who was and still is a great friend to the band. He stayed for a year and appears as the drummer for the “Fall into Madness”album. But after the W.O.A 2000 and some other gigs he told the band that he would stay only as long as it would take them to get hold of another drummer (back then Roger was a single parent and had to quit). Andreas moved back to Sala the band´s hometown and got back in the band as a drummer in the end of 2000.
Dick joined the band as the lead vocalist in the end of November 2000 so Steve decided to just take the back vocal parts. Next thing that happened in the band was that Steve decided to leave the band in the end of July 2001. He told the band that since he was a drummer from the beginning and still is the drummer in the band Carnal Forge he wanted to focus on that for 100%. After some auditions the band find the replacement for Steve’s bass and back vocal parts in the mad bass player Patrick in September 2001. The band had a last change in the line-up and this time Andreas decided to leave Steel Attack. Some auditions later the band got to be complete line-up with the drummer Mike Stark. The band done several gigs with everything from US to Europe and the last big event was the Sweden Rock Festival 2002.
Steel Attack have also recorded a cover version of the Helloween song ``Dr Stein´´ which appeared on the tribute album The Keepers of Jericho Part II (Arise Records).
The band entered at Studio Underground in November 2002 for the recording of their third album “Predator Of The Empire”.The album was produced by Pelle Saether/Steel Attack and mastering was done by Peter In De Betou.”Predator Of The Empire” contains 10 Heavy Metal hymns with high quality production and songwriting.Cover artwork was painted by the wellknown illustrator J.P.Fournier.
Predator Of The Empire will be released on the 7th of April 2003.
Editor's comment: Between 1995 and 1997 the band went under the name Mayer's Eve. In late 2005 they signed a new contract with the German label Massacre Records.
