Krigshot started during the late spring of 1997 when Jallo called
Anders and asked if he wanted to play the drums in a new band picking
inspiration from Mob 47's most fast and furious parts. Anders, being a
fan of that particular style, obviously said yes at once. The idea was
to write and record songs for a possible 7" EP and see if someone was
willing to release it. By forcing Mieszko to join the band, they could
record for free in his studio.
Krigshot recorded the first 7" EP "Terroristattack" in a few hours July
31, 1997. Jallo started shopping around for labels and the first one
who replied was Ken from Sound Pollution, and the 7" EP was release
later 1997.
Ken wanted to follow up the 7" EP with a LP so Jallo and Anders
started working on new material and entered the studio April 28 1998.
During a couple of days 29 songs were recorded, 26 for the album and
three for the compilation LP "Iron Columns", released by Jack Control
on Mindcontrol Records early 1999. Among these songs were a cover of
Mob 47's "Krigshot", the same song the band got their name from.
Rougly a year later Krigshot recorded 12 tracks. 8 ended up on the
second 7" EP "...Och Hotet Kvarstår" and the remaining 4 was released
on the Sound Pollution compilation "Tomorrow Will Be Worse Vol 2".
After this recording Krigshot took a long break as they had recorded
47 own songs and 1 cover and felt that they didn't have any fresh
ideas left, at least not enough for a new album. But in June 2001 the
batteries were recharged and Krigshot entered the studio once again
for a full length session. The second album "Örebromangel" was a full
on punk attack including a classic Riistetyt cover.
Two years later it was time for Krigshot's first live appearence at
the Hultsfreds festival in Sweden. For this show Björn of Disfear
joined the band as a permanent bassplayer. Krigshot did a chaotic show
at the smallest stage. This was Mieszko's last day as a member of
Krigshot as he announced his departure from the band.
November the same year Krigshot got together again to record a new 7"
EP. As the band was currently without a singer they decided to record
the music and add the vocals at another time. That never happened and
that particular recording remains unfinished and unreleased to this
day.
In 2005 Anders and Jallo started talking about waking up Krigshot and
do something new. Jallo suggested that they should let Poffen from
Totalitär put some vocals on the already recorded tracks, release the
7" EP and write some new songs for another 7" EP. That was the plan
for a while, but it all ended with Krigshot doing a new full length
rerecording the best songs from the discarded recording.
The album "Till Vilket Pris Som Helst" was recorded in
two sessions. Drums and guitars in December 2005 and bass and vocals
in January 2006. The album was released by Communichaos Media in April
2006.
