Kalle Sjöstrand, co-founder of metalbands SLUG and HATEBOX, Underground Rock Club SLUG PIT and guitarist in Swedish Stoner-metallers KAROSS, got sick of the the record industry climate in SWEDEN after having watched friends and buddies, being ripped-off by profit hungry companies in the industry including so called major labels. Working days at a local Automation company and nights/weekends to set-up a recording studio together with his band mates in order to record KAROSS 2nd full-lenghth album. Kalle asks some distributor friends if they'd be interested in helping the band with their 2nd release. One of the distributors said yes - If Kalle could get an independet or self-titled label to administrate the release. 
BANG!......and Skulls And Flames Recordings was born. Of course it wasn't quite that simple: Working 8 hrs a day at the automation company at the same time as his wife gave birth to the couples 2nd child, and on top of that record KAROSS 2nd full length album was a hard combined task that Kalle managed to pull off. SKULLS AND FLAMES RECORDINGS was born March 2013 and the KAROSS album "TWO" was released in December 2013. 
Beside the record Label, Skulls And Flames also administrate a professional recording studio helping signed and un-signed acts to record demos and releases. With a large network including some of Swedens best companies in the mixing/mastering branch SKULLS AND FLAMES can offer You and Your band a complete package-deal with a professional approach including everything from tracking, mixing, mastering of your recording to professional layout and artwork if You decide to print and release your recording physical. References include "Körsbärsfettera", "KAROSS", "HBK", "Patrik Olsson" and "Syconaut" with hopefully more to come.

Scars of Envy

The band’s name SCARS OF ENVY, introduces a deeper, more inquisitive look into the chaotic turmoil of just living through a bond formed by a message of hope through hostile expression. With the scars of life burned deep into each member the envy of man continues to drive them forward.

"Forsaken Me", an album that exemplifies the band’s devotion to delve into the heart of humanity, showcases a myriad of immense rhythms, while unleashing euphoric choruses that tap into the pulse of each listener. The evocative passage “Bred to Conquer” reminisces to the infinite battle of good versus evil that began at the dawn of time, and yet, continues to wage on worldwide. “Forsaken Me”, an individual narrative of one’s strength to defy the constant attacks of malice, ruin and projected misery, glorifies self-awareness, adopts personal boundaries and is written to enrich the soul. The thunderous hymn “Carry The Wounded” praises mercy for those of us who yearn for refuge in our darkest hours and salutes the spirit of our brethren who sacrifice themselves to aid us back to repair.

Paragon Theorem released their second full length album titled Inkwell in March of 2015. The sophomore release is full of hard hitting guitar work mixed with melodic vocals for a unique and powerful sound that has been missing from the rock genre for a long time. Inkwell has a wide range of tunes from ballads like This is Real and Remedy to the arena rock fueled Alive (For the First Time) and even new rock heavy hitters like Compliant and Along For a Ride. The album was recorded, mixed, and mastered by the band in an effort to keep the sound the way they envisioned it. Inkwell is available on iTunes, Amazon, Spotify, Rdio, and Google Music.

Since the release of the album Paragon Theorem has been putting together shows in the New England area in support of the album and will be playing all over their home state of Connecticut and all the way up to Boston, Massachusetts. They opened for Soul Asylum and The Meat Puppets at the Webster Theater in Hartford and will play the mainstage at Falling Further Fest 2015. They will continue playing shows in support of their new album through the fall of 2015 up until when they will start work on their next full length album. The new album is expected to be out Summer/Spring of 2016.

Paragon Theorem formed in 2012 as Paragon and released their debut album titled Bare Your Soul in 2013. The group was formed by lead guitarist Steve Delesdernier and original drummer Josh Ingraham. These lifelong friends had been in and out of bands together since middle school and decided to give it another shot. They brought in their mutual friend Brian Moore on vocals because his vocal style is unique and meshed well with the music they were writing. Soon after, rhythm guitarist Dan Field answered a Craigslist ad to join them and the group hit the studio to start their work while they continued to look for a bassist. Bassist Eric Rosier heeded the call almost immediately and the group was solidified.

Paragon went on to perform all over Connecticut and Massachusetts in 2013 and 2014 including a Radio 104.1 sanctioned show, The Hard Rock Café at Foxwoods Casino, headlining a Webster Theater show, and headlining the Portland Fair in both 2013 and 2014. After their initial success, they parted ways with their original drummer when playing shows began getting in the way of his personal life. They finished recording their second album with him and decided to change the name of the group to start fresh (and also because there are several other groups worldwide with the same name). Paragon Theorem quickly found a new drummer, Jordan Pitruzzello, and they have not missed a beat.

Each member has their own sound and style created from their different influences that, when combined, creates an edgy melodic modern rock that will stand the test of time. The band has already received recognition on the airwaves through local radio station 104.1 FM WMRQ and 91.7 FM WHUS. Paragon Theorem is focusing on playing every show they can to bring their music to new fans of rock music.

Paragon Theorem is:
Steve Delesdernier – Lead Guitar
Dan Field – Rhythm Guitar
Brian Moore – Vocals
Jordan Pitruzzello – Drums
Eric Rosier – Bass

The TWIZTID tale is gritty and fascinating folklore, built on self-determination, fearless creativity, and the elimination of the boundaries between artist and audience. The dedicated supporters who stand with co-conspirators Jamie Madrox and Monoxide are more than fans: they are family.

There’s a rogue’s gallery of hooks, rhythms, and riffs in the TWIZTID bag of tricks. For 25 years, they’ve concocted artistic anarchy rooted in the streetwise storytelling sophistication of hip-hop, trance-inducing hypnotic beats, and the seething bite of hard rock rage. Merging horror movies, comics, and a level of depravity and violence rivaling the grimiest of pulp fiction in the annals of Americana, TWIZTID is the reflection of a tightly knit subculture and the sound of unbridled id.

With over a dozen entries on the Billboard charts, TWIZTID built themselves into an institution, without the help of mainstream gatekeepers at MTV, traditional radio, or major press. They’ve brought their adrenaline-soaked, unbound artistic mania on the road, with metalcore acts like Motionless In White and on the Vans Warped Tour, all without forsaking the worldwide family. TWIZTID built the connection they maintain with their fiercely dedicated legion of supporters to last and to evolve. Everything Majik Ninja does harken back to that original impulse shared by Monoxide and Jamie Madrox: to make art that swings a big ax at the boundary between audience and artist.
