Rare photo of Per Eriksson (center) posted by his former band mate* Jonas Asplind a few years ago, originally taken ~2000. Per would have been ~18/19 years old at the time. He’s dressed up as King Diamond of Mercyful Fate. He’s a big fan and has multiple tattoos of them. He’s jokingly said in an interview that meeting King Diamond would be like meeting his dad - probably a “boring,” regular guy.

Today, Per’s in Ghost and fans dress up as Ghost’s papas and ghouls. People idolize Per’s guitar playing and create their own Ghost tribute bands. The band Ghost has garnered attention from famous bands internationally, including Mercyful Fate. What a dream come true for this little guy… and now he inspires other people in the metal scene… it’s funny how things come full circle.

*Per and Jonas were in a local band in Falun, Sweden called Hostile in 1996 according to the Metal Archives.

Follow The Cipher machen ohne Jonas weiter

Getrennte Wege geht man bei Follow The Cipher mit dem Bassisten Jonas Asplind. Da schien für einmal der Wurm drin gewesen zu sein. Während die Band sich noch ein wenig diplomatisch hält mit dem Statement. Welches hier zu lesen ist.

However, being in a band means many different wills and ways of seeing things. Trying to push the whole thing in the same direction, hopefully forward, is not always easy. And on top of that we all live pretty far from each other and have different personal/family situations. And so as a consequence of all these things it is with a heavy heart we announce the departure between Follow the Cipher and bass player Jonas Asplind. Jonas has been in the band for many years. always with big enthusiasm and sparking energy both on and off stage. With the years gone by conditions change and that is primarily what have lead to this decision. We wish Jonas all the best in every way and the biggest of luck with Ad Infinitum where Jonas also has been shredding the bass for a while now.

With this chapter closed we now start the writing of a new one. Excited to see what the future will bring and we hope that YOU will join us on the journey!

So ist Jonas’ Statement dann doch eher ein wenig verbittert und er scheint mir doch ziemlich enttäuscht zu sein. Aber lest doch auch hier selber.

This is truly sad and not by my own choice and came a bit out of the blue earlier this year! But i guess for the best for both parts! As I don’t want to be somewhere where i’m not welcome. I will forever love FTC music as i always been a fan of the music. And it’s been a blessing to play the music I love, but it will take some time and distance before i can listen to the music again as I’m heartbroken. But still i got out allot of being in FTC and the best was to meet all your fantastic people out there! I made a lot of friends for life for that i’m forever thankful. My adventures don’t stop here I still have a lot to give and will continue my music journey in AD infinitum! And my longe dude project Curse Of Cain

Ich denke aber diese Enttäuschung wird sich mit einem Blick in die Hitparade bald legen. Seine neue Kombo Ad Infinitum mit der Ausnahmesängerin Melissa Bonny legt legt gleich mit dem Debutalbum einen guten Start hin und enterte sogleich nicht nur die Schweizer Hitparade.

Band Interview 14. Masters Of Rock - Vlog 15. Sabaton Open Air - Vlog 16. Behind The Music Videos - Vlog ---------------- FOLLOW THE CIPHER’s story started in May 2014, when Ken Kängström decided to start a band with the intention to be different from everything else in the music scene. The idea itself had been haunting his mind for years, but the catalyst to finally put his thoughts into action was the result of a longtime collaboration with the internationally acclaimed metal giants SABATON, with whom FOLLOW THE CIPHER maintain a close friendship. Ken Kängström is definitely not a newcomer in the Scandinavian music scene, since he co-wrote and co-produced some well-known SABATON songs with Joakim Brodén, such as the monumental anthem ’Carolus Rex‘. It was this track which got the ball rolling for Ken: "I think the song sparked the first inspiration in me – in particular, it was responsible for me starting to trust my own abilities and judgment," Ken reflects. "When me and Joakim wrote this track, I felt deep inside that it was time to put my plans with FOLLOW THE CIPHER into action." Therefore, the band has also included a version of this important track, ’Carolus Rex‘, on their debut album. Something unique was born, growing to become a mixture between NIGHTWISH, IN FLAMES and SABATON, yet creating something completely different and innovative. "I consider our music as both visual and cinematic," says Ken. "The sound is large-scaled and multi-layered - each element plays an important role within the overall concept. You can listen to our music in two different ways; either by focusing on the individual, versatile elements like the keyboard melodies or Linda's powerful voice, or you can indulge in the whole package. Both type of listeners will get what they look for in our very own CIPHER METAL!“ ---------------- The CIPHER crew consists of five talented members; Linda Toni Grahn, a fantastic and highly talented singer, with long pinkish red hair and emerald eyes, equipped not only with a powerful and characteristic voice, but also outstanding charisma. When taking to the stage, all it takes are a few seconds for Linda to capture everyone’s attention. "Linda is unique - she stands out from the crowd, not only as a great singer, but also as a charismatic personality! Immediately after meeting her, I knew she would be the right person for us!” Ken Kängström (guitar) recalls the first meeting with their female captain of the CIPHER workforce. Other crew members include Karl Löfgren (drums), Viktor Carlsson (guitar) and Jonas Asplind (bass). --- More info: www.followthecipher.com  www.facebook.com/followthecipher   www.nuclearblast.de/followthecipher
