Mark 4 of Talion is now a fact! On friday the 13th of January, Ludvig Engellau joined us on bass. Rehearsals are going great,
but the demorecording might be delayed even more. Fredrik managed to own his new laptop for 4 days, then he completely killed the
BIOS due to a bad flash. A great way to make a computer totally useless! As this laptop was meant to be the heart of the
Macaroni Factory Studio, we won't be able to record anything until the BIOS is fixed.
Hopefully it won't take too long to be back on track, but with Fredriks notorious bad luck nothing is certain...

Mark IV of Talion: Martin, Calle, Ludde and Fredrik

2006-01-09
On the 5th day of the new year, Magnus Karkea left Talion.
Reasons? Lack of interest, and he couldn't handle the pressure of actually rehearsing.
Sad, very sad. The search for a new bassist has already begun, and hopefully mark IV of Talion will be complete real soon.
The demorecording is now scheduled for March/April. Lyrics and links are updated.

And then they were three...

2005-11-20
Martin Missy has contributed some guestvocals on the latest Devil Lee Rot release, entitled At Hell´s Deep.
Get it now from Ironfist Productions! You can also hear Missy on the second Protector anthology, named Ominous Message of Brutality.
Released on I Hate Records. The lyrics page is updated with the final versions of our 3 new songs.
4 songs are completed, and Missy and Fredrik have recorded a little pre-production demo with 3 of the songs. It's sounds great!
Hopefully we will record a 4 song demo February 2006.

2005-09-10
Check out Martin Missys guestvocals on the latest Desaster release Angelwhore!
Martin asked Fredrik to record the guestvocals, and now they both have their names on a Metal Blade release, thanks alot Tormentor!
Martin has written lyrics to two songs, Catalaunian Fields and Thunderbolt. There are also some new pictures, and some new links.

2005-08-13
Wow, it only took about 4 years for Fredrik to create a new ugly homepage, but now it's finally online!
A big update in the members-section is up next. It will only take a year or two...

2005-07-16
We managed to write the music for 2½ new songs in the autumn of 2004. I think Fredrik, Mange and Calle rehearsed 6 times,
and then they jammed old 70's classics with Missy 3 times. In late November we suddenly lost access to the drumkit we were using, it was sold...
Talion went into yet another hibernation. Mange and Fredrik finished the music for the third song, and started with song numero 4.
This was early March 2005, then there were no activity at all.
In June Fredrik took up his guitar for the first time in over 3 months, and finished song #4 in 2 hours.
One month later Calle had the luck of a real bastard, and bought a complete drumkit for no money at all.

The hibernation is now finally over!

2004-07-02
Tried out yet another drummer for the band, Calle Sjöström. Frustrated by the fact that he couldn't find a bassplayer, Fredrik forced Magnus to become just that,
the bassplayer of Talion. This made the new lineup complete.

2004-05-22
Tried out a new drummer for the band, Fredrik Palmquist. We tried him twice actually, but we felt that something wasn't right.

2003-11-22
Magnus Karkea is recruited as a guitarplayer, at a party after 3 beers. Martin Missy is asked by Fredrik to share the vocal duties with him at the same party, a few beers later.

2003-11-03
Talion splits up. Fredrik decides to keep the name, and continue with a new lineup. This is approved by all founding members. No harm done, and Talion lives on.
