Biography

Very modern and fantastically melodic, Cullooden is here to blend a brilliant musical experience with a progressive flair built upon a strong foundation.

Indeed, their unique style and energy sprung from deep roots. Fredrik Joakimsson initially imagined Cullooden as a solo project more than a decade ago and started to lay the foundations on which the more technical, modern and more mature style of melodic metal they would soon build.

In their quest for greatness, Cullooden started off as a five-man band a couple of years later. With the addition of Jonas Ekestubbe in 2005, the band took their first step towards becoming what they are today.

Their search for constant improvement led them to different paths in 2009 before they could finish their debut album. As with all the good things in life, Cullooden and their album, Silent Scream, needed to organically come to maturity.

Sure enough, 2011 heralded the time when Silent Scream would finally be revisited now with Fredrik on vocals and rhythm guitars, Jonas on the lead guitars and Micke Södergren on the bass guitars.

Having found the perfect formula for their expectations and understanding of music, Cullooden completed the album at RoastingHouse in Malmö, Sweden with Anders "Theo" Theander and signed with the RoastingHouse Records brand, Dead End Exit by the A&R and producer Micko Twedberg.

Cullooden invites brilliant musicians to their live shows to meet their fans and constantly improve their style and synergy as the three like-minded musicians they are now.
