Supragod biography

It would be fair to believe that the Scandinavian rock scene had it's prime time in the mid 90´s with bands like Hellacopters, Gluecifer and Backyard Babies spreading their "action rock" all over the globe. But you couldn't be more wrong. A new generation is on its way to prove that the Scandinavian rock n roll served back then was just an opening for something even bigger. Supragod have made it very clear that this band will conquer and keep the pole position through the whole race. Starting out in January 2003 as a rock band just like any else Supragod soon realized that there was a huge demand of a rock act that was able to deliver that little extra, the thing that makes you jump and shake in a pure stream of rage, love and sweat. It became obvious already during the bands first couple of shows that this band could meet and even outdo those expectations. By adding a touch of hard rock to the basic kick ass punk songs and creating energy on stage so intense you could reach out and touch it with your hands Supragod found a new dimension in rock n roll that keeps attracting a fast growing audience.

Today Supragod is a well known and highly respected live act in Stockholm and the band are aiming high for the future. The latest EP "You Can't Bomb This" has received a great reception from both audience and media. The band will play lots of shows in both Sweden and UK during the upcoming year to support the EP and to keep Supragod the fastest growing independent rock band. The combination of great song writing and unique live performances is sure to make Supragod one of the most interesting up & coming rock acts of this century.


Supragod highlights

2003 01 Recorded the first EP "cheerleader", 4 songs that received great reviews.

2003 02 First official Gig, ended up with 3 more gigs booked the very same night.

2003 05 Recorded second EP "PPCP", a bit more experimental songs that took us a bit closer to the sound Supragod is known for today.

2003 09 Supragod played a UK tour supporting rock guru Kory Clarke (Ex. Warrior Soul, Space Age Playboys), got 5/5K in Kerrang and 9/10 in Powerplay magazine. It was our first time in the UK.

2004 01 Recorded EP "Seven Nights in Soho". Inspired by the London atmosphere this EP containing 7 songs became a sort of break through for the band who finally clicked in both song writing and studio recording. Track no. 4, "Get It Done" got elected "best song of the month" on an independent rock radio station.

2004 05 Recorded Promo EP "Fuck me Like a Promo". 4 songs specially recorded for Sony Sweden. Track no. 3, "Sex Nights" became the soundtrack to an extreme sport movie.

2005 03 finally the band got back to the UK to play two shows in Glasgow. A great time ending up in a meeting with promoter Craig McGee who was so overwhelmed by the audience reaction to Supragod he promised to get us back ASAP.

2005 06 the "You Can't Bomb This" EP
Was recorded in the legendary Sunlight Studio together with producer Tomas Skogsberg (Hellacopters, Backyard Babies, and Entombed) resulted in our finest recording so far. Title track "You Cant Bomb This" is featured as the theme song for a Swedish TV-show called Vlogg on BIGTV.

2005 08 The band won a national rock band competition "Bryggeriet Live 2005". The attitude of "if we don't win, we quit" Supragod were betting the bands existence in competition with another 135 hand picked rock bands. Luckily the jury had no trouble at all in agreeing that Supragod "with their kick ass attitude, rock n roll songs from hell and infectious energy are with no doubts the best unsigned rock act in Sweden 2005". So the band got away with their future intact and the 25.000 sek in price money.

2005 08 Supragod played live on Swedish Radio for the first time.

2005 09 Craig McGee turned out to be a man standing by his words not only taking Supragod back to play Glasgow, he booked a full UK tour! Giving the 4-piece rock machine the chance to show the people of Britain what Supragod is all about we went right on the hard core and got the best response ever, the audience loved Supragod almost as much as we loved them. Today Supragod have more people supporting the band in the UK than in Sweden which gives us a great reason to keep coming back until there's no reasons left to stay in Sweden at all.

2005 12 Got elected as "Kings of Metal" at the Norrtelje Music Festival. A slightly misleading title but once again Supragod won a title proving this band to be the best unsigned rock act around.
