Biography

Founded in 1999, Per Holmström started working on his first demo entitled Forward. It was not until eight years later, when his first studio album DECAYED, REBUILT was released on Alfa Matrix, that the true voice of Per's work was heard. The album got both good and bad critique but became a big success in Germany and was featured on the DAC for a total of six weeks, peaking on position #4.^{[citation needed]}
