Biography

Vicious Art started up in 2002. Matti Mäkelä (Guitar) and Robert Lundin (Drums), who both used to be in Dark Funeral, were joined by long time friends and fellow-musicians Jocke Widfeldt (Vocals) (Dominion Caligula, Obscurity Sthlm) and Tobbe Sillman (Guitar) (Guidance of Sin, The dead). Together they recorded a 4 song demo.

In early 2004, Jörgen Sandström (ex Entombed, Grave) joined the band after Matti gave him a demo and told him they needed a bassplayer. As Matti and Jörgen had talked about starting a band together before, the timing was just perfect as Jörgen recently had quit Entombed.

Later that year the band hooked up with Threeman Rec and decided to record a full length album. "Fire Falls And The Waiting Waters" was recorded in August 2004 and released shortly thereafter same year. The record got some really good reviews from both major magazines and underground internet sites. The band played a few shows and got good respons from the audiences.

The band and Threeman rec parted ways and a 3 song ep was recorded, Weed the Wild, and we sold it over the net and at gigs. The ep finally reached Mighty Music Rec in Denmark, who loved the songs so much that they decided to sign Vicious Art. The first release through Mighty Music Rec is through their sub label, Prutten Rec. The Weed the Wild ep is released as a 7" vinyl ep!

This year, October 2007, the second album will be released!
