Nils Patrik Johansson Announces Solo Album 'Evil Deluxe', Preview Available
Lion's Share/Astral Doors singer Nils Patrik Johansson (ex-Civil War) will release his first solo album "Evil Deluxe" this spring via German label Metalville. Check out the preview above.
"I have thought about a solo album for ten years, but then Civil War came into the picture and I used all my ideas for the three albums that we did," Nils Patrik reveals.
"After my departure from them, I felt that I wanted to focus 100% on Astral Doors and Lion's Share. But all of a sudden inspiration came back - and from out of nowhere I had 10 new killer songs. It felt natural to hire my Lion's Share band mate, Lars Chriss as producer and guitar player. My son Fredrik Johansson play drums on the record, so finally father and son Johansson will appear on the same album." Nils Patrik added.
Other musicians on the album:
Andy Loos (Lion's Share, Glory) - Bass
Fredrik Bergh (Bloodbound) - Keyboard
Kay Backlund (Lion's Share) - Keyboard
Anuviel (Saecred Spirit) - Keyboard
Marcus Bengts - Bass
A couple of special guests are to be revealed later on, as well as more details on the album.
