BIOGRAPHY

The history of Electric Earth started back in 2001, in Sweden, when Peter Gottlieb - vocals and guitar (formerly with UK outfit Psycle), Tommy Scalisi - lead guitar (Gooseflesh, Rat Salad), Lyris Karlsson - bass (Rat Salad) and Lars Berger - drums (Gooseflesh, Rising) discovered that they shared the same undying passion for music and an unyielding desire to share this obsession with other people. Individually the four inspired musicians already possessed quite some experience in writing and playing music, and together they now set out to create some original sounds, albeit without disavowing their influences such as Kiss, Black Sabbath, Stone Temple Pilots and Soundgarden.

The expert musicianship, and fine song writing on their 2005 debut album "Organic Songs - Volume One", quickly established them as serious contenders in the international Rock arena. The video clip for "Platonic," the opening track on the album, furthermore established them as visually interesting.

In 2006 Lars decided to quit the band in pursuit of other interests. He was replaced by Draken another highly qualified drummer, who had previously played with Sabbra Cadabra & Roarkit.

That same year Electric Earth also completed their second album, "Vol II - Words Unspoken", for which the tracks were cut at Bohus, a renowned Swedish studio where everyone from ABBA and Status Quo to more cutting-edge metal outfits like Evergrey have recorded. Electric Earth produced their second effort by themselves, assisted by Roberto Laghi (Mustasch, Hardcore Superstar, LOK, Freak Kitchen, Transport League and The Awesome Machine).

On stage Electric Earth reveal the presence of an energy and personality that sets them apart from other bands, and make them an outstanding live act. A reputation well deserved, which they recently confirmed when playing the Metaltown Festival, holding their own next to, bands like Tool, Danko Jones, Opeth and Soilwork. The band of course plans to support the release of the new album with extended touring.

"Vol II - Words Unspoken" is an inspired, original, and muscular Rock album with a mighty powerful groove, which will be unleashed May 28, 2007, packaged in a handsome digipak.
