About Blindside
Formed in 1994, band members Christian – lead vocals, Simon – guitar and backing vocals, Marcus – drums and Tomas – bass, have known each other all their lives.
“Growing up in Stockholm you tend to stick together,” says Simon. “Music is very important in Sweden , and we believed from the start that we could make an impact as a band.”
When they formed the band in their late teens inspired by American metal and grunge and the then-burgeoning alt-rock music scene at home they weren’t very accomplished musicians, to say the least, Lindskog laughs: “The good thing was that we sucked equally. And we started growing together.” |
They started out under the name "Underfree" during the first two years of their career and changed their name to Blindside upon the release of their second demo in 1996.
