Starting as I mean to go on, and making my first contribution here a positive one - here’s a recent photo of me presenting the #InFlames guys with some shiny discs to commemorate their recent album ‘Foregone’ hitting the No.1 spot in 4x official Swedish charts.

Not only I love this album, I also love the artwork 😍

Seeing #SleepToken at a sold out O2 Arena last night, felt like a real full circle moment.
We worked together to put out the early EPs via Basick Records back in 2017, and to see how far the boy in bandages has come in such a short time is a joy to witness.
Congrats on all your success.

ZETRA head out on their first North American tour this week with the awesome #ZealAndArdor and #Gaerea.
Luckily for you, I’m not actually in the band, so it’ll just be the regular duo.
Catch a date if you can!

I'm at that age where my mind still thinks I'm 29, my sense of humour suggests I'm 12, whilst my body mostly keeps asking if I'm sure I'm not dead yet.

I recently signed a young band called NECKBREAKKER to @nuclearblast.bsky.social - they just announced an EU tour today and their debut record comes out in December.

If you're into old school death metal with a modern twist, give em a whirl: linktr.ee/neckbreakker
