MARYSCREEK courageously blends modern heavy metal
with the classic melodies of Scandinavian pop tradition to form a fresh and
unique sound. The ambition is to take the best of the two worlds: a heavy rock
foundation consisting of fat, distorted guitars and huge drums with a delicious
topping of pop-flavored song melodies arranged with multi layered vocals.
MarysCreek was founded by Mats Nilsson & Stefan Halldin
in 2004 with the intention to create an outfit blending the modern heavy rock
of today with the Swedish tradition of strong melodies catchy choruses. Demoes
where sent to various labels and after negotiations the band signed their
record deal with the German major label, MTM. The members of the MarysCreek
team continued their work with their debut album.
To supply the
bands material with the necessary heavy sound, demon producer Fredrik “Fredman”
Nordström (In Flames, Soilwork, The Haunted, Opeth and Dream Evil) was engaged
for mixing the album. By September 2006 his work was finished and MarysCreek
had their debut album in their hands. “Some Kind of Hate” was released March
24th, 2007 by MTM Music and received great responses and the band toured to
support the album. MarysCreek have shared stage with many artists. Among them:
Takida, Evergrey, Crucified Barbara, Dead by April, Uriha Heep, The Poodles,
Fatal Smile etc.
After changes in
the line-up, MarysCreek is today constituted by Mats Nilsson (v), Alexander
Eriksson (g), Roger Blomberg (b), Jonas Hallberg (g) and Stefan Halldin (d).
Their new EP ´Incubic Twin´ was recorded, this time with the help of the two
producers Henrik Edenhed (Robyn, Straight Frank, Cesars Palace, Dead By April
etc.) and Sebastian Forslund (Staireo, Night Flight Orchestra etc.) and relesed
on June 16, 2014 via MaryscCreek Records. The two producers have backgrounds as
metal fans but with broad musical experiences from diverse musical contexts,
flavoring the sound of the new songs in the best possible way.
MarysCreek new
album ´Infinity´was recorded in June/July 2015. The 12 tracks was mixed by
Stefan Glaumann (Rammstein, Within Temptation, Europe, Paradise Lost etc.) and
mastred by Svante Forsbäck (Rammstein, Volbeat, Lindemann, Tarja Turunen etc.)
´Infinity´was released January 22nd 2016 by Escape Music Ltd.
