Biography

Sweden (2000 – present)

Blinded Colony is currently known as The Blinded.

BIO:
Sweden has given birth to some of the best over the years, and Blinded Colony will be the next to follow in those footsteps.

Along with The Haunted, Soilwork, and In Flames, Blinded Colony is the representation of the next breed of aggressive metal. With adrenaline-laced guitar rhythms, atmospheric synthesizers, and ripping vocals, Blinded Colony creates a distinguished harmonic aggression that hits you harder than a Chuck Norris roundhouse-kick-to-the-face.

Formed in January 2000, by guitarists, Johan Blomström, Tobias Olsson and original vocalist Niklas Svensson, Blinded Colony was known as “Stigmata”. By 2002, the band had released two demos, Painreceiver and Tribute to Chaos. Tribute to Chaos caught the attention of Italy-based Scarlet Records. Coinciding with their new-found record deal, the band officially changed their name to Blinded Colony. Their full-length debut, Divine, was a testament to their work ethic, self-produced and released in 2003 on Scarlet Records and received full, proper, distribution in Japan through Soundholic Records. Blinded Colony and Scarlet Records parted ways a year later. This also marked ushering in of new vocalist, Johan Schuster. whose powerful, throat-tearing screams and soaring, clean vocals caught the attention of US based record label Pivotal Rockordings, who immediately took note of Schuster’s vocals and the energetic boost he brought to the band as a unit.

    I still think its crazy that the main songwriter for Blinded Colony ended up writing songs such as "Moves Like Jagger". [2]

    Their old vocalist sounds a little bit like Warrel Dane. Well, at least for me.

    I'm really late here, but I JUST noticed the "Chuck Norris roundhouse-kick-to-the-face" edit in the description. Brilliant.
