Description
Coldworker were formed in Örebro, Sweden, early 2006 by Anders Jakobson (drums), Anders Bertilsson (guitar) and Oskar Pålsson (bass). Coming from different parts of the metal world, ideas were shared to make up the Coldworker sound of grindcore based death metal. During a spring filled with numerous rehearsals and intense song-writing, the line-up was completed by André Alvinzi (guitar) and Joel Fornbrant (vocals).
The band were signed by Relapse Records and just four months after the formation of the band, the debut album ‘The Contaminated Void' was recorded by the band, and mixed by Dan Swanö in Soundlab Studios. Following the release of the album, the band completed a Scandinavian tour with Arch Enemy and Path Of No Return.
André Alvinzi was replaced by Daniel Schröder and the band went to play at the Finnish Metal Expo in Helsinki before embarking on a larger European tour with Misery Index and Dew-Scented.
The second album ‘Rotting Paradise' was recorded during the 2007-2008 winter in a number of different studios and yet again mixed by Dan Swanö. The album displayed a development of the Coldworker sound with stronger songs and a heavier production. Following the release of the album, the band played in Sweden and Scandinavia with The Black Dahlia Murder among others.
After a long song-writing process Coldworker entered a number of studios during the 2010-2011 winter to record their third and strongest album yet, again with their long-time collaborator Dan Swanö doing the final mix and master. ‘The Doomsayer's Call' includes the best examples of the Coldworker sound to date, where intense blastbeats meet heaviness and grooves with eerie melodies and overall catchy songs. It took a long time to complete the songs and the goal was to create strong individual songs that combined make up a really strong Swedish death metal album.
