Wildness was formed in 2014 by drummer and songwriter Erik Modin, guitar players Adam Holmström and Pontus Sköld and lead singer Gabriel Lindmark. The band performed live and released a few demos during the first two years, before signing a record deal and releasing their first two albums on the German label AOR Heaven.
Bass player Marcus Sjösund stepped in as a full member of the band during the recording of their debut album, which was released in late 2017 and immediately became a great international success among fans of melodic hard rock. However, disagreements regarding musical directions led lead singer Gabriel Lindmark to leave Wildness in the fall of 2019.
The band recruited lead singer Erik Forsberg (ex-Blazon Stone) as their new frontman and lead singer in the spring of 2020. Their follow-up to the debut album was named “Ultimate Demise” (released in late 2020), and became an ever greater success for the band, thanks to Erik Forsberg’s powerful set of pipes and the hit-single “Cold Words”.
Wildness spent the main part of 2021 writing and planning the follow-up to “Ultimate Demise”, and after the band signed a multi-album deal with Frontiers in October 2021, they finally released their third album, titled “Resurrection”, which contains eleven melodic masterpieces with one foot in the 80’s and the other one in the present.
Followed by intense writing and recording sessions, Wildness finally return with their new album “Avenger”.
