Where the hell is Fredrik Johansson?

Where the hell is Fredrik Johansson?

...and another question: Where the hell is Pasi Hitula? (former Kalmah keyboardist)

here is what mikael told me this july about this topic.. doesn't really answer the question "where is he", still helps figuring out what the situation is:

5. What about Johansson? Ever thought about bringing him back as a special guest for some special song to be published as a bonus track, for example?
The thing is I just met him last week after fucking five years... that is too bad! We don’t really hang out at all anymore. He is a great guy and I know he is busy with other stuff. I know he is still playing and it could be fun but... I don’t know... it wouldn’t really make any sense to us to bring him back and I don’t know if he would want it either. I rather drink beer with him and play with the band.

Both are in my basement.

 

[RampageSword]

Do you feed them?

 

[Siren]

I think he does, but only after they fulfill his sick fantasies.

 

[Fevermist]

Even a sick person can have healthy fantasies,
and the other way around.

 

[rahvin]

To better fulfill my sick fantasies, I only feed them tuna past its sell-by date.

 

[plintus]

It's actually eatable past "sell by" date, "use by" date is more dangerous (not for tuna, not any longer).

 

[rahvin]

I wanted to say "expiration date" but it didn't sound right. I broke Fredrik Johansson's knee-cap and decide to go for "sell by". Never trust your captive's knee-caps, that's what I learned today.

 

[plintus]

Alright Anyone has something else? What's his other project? 5 years? Did he serve in the army or something?

Yeah, like fighting martians and performing vile sexual acts after.

After listening to rahvin I will believe anything

haha No serious, No more info darklings?

 

[Villain]

haha No serious, No more info darklings?

He is (or has been?) in some rock-band ("Rocketeers" or something like that? Or is my memory failing me once again?), and as you can read from Mikael's "five years" -comment, he doesn't really keep any contact with DT. That's all I know.

Oh, and he is not the same Fredrik Johansson who played on In Flames' "December Flower" or with Dimension Zero - that's a different guy with the same name.

[rahvin]

Although my experience with Swedish onomastics is limited, I have the feeling that his first and last name must be far from uncommon.

 

[Villain]

Yep, Rahvin's correct, they might not be the mostcommon names, but they are certainly not rare in any way. There are probably dozens of Fredrik Johanssons in Sweden. The odd coincidence is that two of them are great guitarists.

Wasn't there another Fredrik Johansson who did some graphics for a game or something?

Perhaps you're thinking of Alf Svensson, ex At The Gates member.

You're absolutely right, ''this'' Fredrik Johansson is some talented musician studying at the music school of Stockholm, Sweden. He was in a band called Chameleon together with Peter Iwers from In Flames.

No, this is what i remembered:

/Siren (on her way to dementia, but glad to see she's not there yet)

 

[Villain]

You're absolutely right

Well, of course I am. :Smug:

Too bad he left the band. I can't stand looking at Michael Nicklasson live playing bass. He irritates me with his headbang and movement! I'm sure someone else other than me thinks this way haha. Old line-up when Martin H. was on bass was awesome (although he's an amazing guitar player). I like Brandstrom... good thing he joined the band! (Although some people on this forum think he's gay hmmm) lol Cheers!
