History

Tad Morose's original lineup consisted of Christer Andersson, Per-Ola Olsson, and Dan-Erik Eriksson.[1] Their full-length debut was Leaving the Past Behind, released in 1993.[3] In the subsequent decade the band went through numerous lineup changes, with Andersson as the only consistent member, and released a total of seven albums.[4] The band released Modus Vivendi in 2004, which signaled a shift away from symphonic and progressive metal toward a more traditional metal sound.[5] The band toured for several years after the release of Modus Vivindi, with several more lineup changes including a stint by singer Joe Comeau, but they were unable to return to the recording studio.[6]

Tad Morose reformed in 2013 with a new lineup featuring singer Ronny Hemlin, formerly of Steel Attack.[7][6] The reformed band released the albums Revenant in 2013[6] and St. Demonius in 2015, which renewed the band's European power metal sound.[8] Tad Morose then signed with GMR Music.[9] Their most recent album, Chapter X, was released in June 2018.[10]

gollark: The problems I have with our system are more about issues we ended up with than the entire general concept of markets.
gollark: You could complain that this is due to indoctrination of some sort by... someone, and maybe this is true (EDIT: but you could probably just change that and it would be easier than reworking the entire economy). But you can quite easily see examples of people just not actually caring about hardships far away, and I think this is a thing throughout history.
gollark: What I'm saying is that, despite some problems, our market system is pretty effective at making the things people involved in it want. And most people do not *actually* want to help people elsewhere much if it comes at cost to them.
gollark: Yep!
gollark: "Economy" means "any sort of system which coordinates production/allocates resources".
