Bio:
Per Englund and Patrik Lämborg met for the first time while doing the mandatory Swedish military service 1985. Per sang at that time in a band called Blacksmith. Blacksmith had just finished recording their second album-single called "Tomorrows Mistery". The first Blacksmith recording was en EP called "Gypsy Queen".Per got a demo that Patrik had made a few years earlier (this demo tape also placed Patrik in the highly renowned Guitar Player spotlight column). And that was that, Patrik joined Blacksmith and Blacksmith Mk II was a fact.Blacksmith Mk II played in the limited Swedish rock scene. They also recorded an EP (1987) with songs like "World Victim" & "Angel". This EP was unfortunately never released since the band parted in 1988 (mainly due to that Patrik got some calls from USA and left to play in America). The EP master tape is unfortunately destroyed and beyond repair....Per moved on with other bands such as 220 Volt (under the name Voltergaist) during 1992-93, Mandrake Root 1994-98 (4 albums together with the Free From Sin Hammond virtuoso Staffan Stavert). Year 2000 Blacksmith Mark III recorded an album called "Once upon a star".During 2009-2010 Patrik & Per connected again and decided to record a demo in Patriks home studio. The demo contained new but also a couple of old songs. The demo turned out very well, and again the duo proved that they still can produce great hardrock/metal songs.The demo was later presented to their good friend and producer Magnus "Mankan” Sedenberg. He thought this would be a great album to make.This offcourse triggered Per & Patrik with some new energy and they decided to record the album at Pama Records Studios.Free From Sin is not a religious band, but as thinking human beings there is always room for questions.Free From Sin is a band with members worthy bearers of the legacy of the 70´s and 80´s hard rock. Free From Sin are going back to basic with classical instruments such as Hammond organ, loud guitars together with aggressively vivid vocals.With clear influences from Deep Purple, Judas Priest, Rainbow, Iron Maiden etc Free From Sin merges these ingredients together in an updated sound with strong riff based songs. This first album have already become a "classic" ?The band members have a background in various bands during 80, 90 and 00's but the Free From Sin band takes the plunge. Back to what for a long time shaped them as musicians and as songwriters, together with a modern sound that will most likely appeal to both older and younger listeners.There is a clear message and thought throughout the lyrics, this in combination with massive guitar riffs will for sure capture the listener's attention and thought.

Per Englund and Patrik Lämborg met for the first time while doing the mandatory Swedish military service in 1985. At the time Per sang in a band called Blacksmith, that had just finished recording their second single, called "Tomorrow's Mystery". The first Blacksmith recording was an EP, called "Gypsy Queen". Per got a demo that Patrik had made a few years earlier (this demo tape also placed Patrik in the highly renowned Guitar Player spotlight column). Patrik joined Blacksmith and Blacksmith Mk. II was a fact. The band played in the limited Swedish rock scene. They also recorded an EP in 1987 with songs like "World Victim" and "Angel". This EP was unfortunately never released since the band parted in 1988 (mainly due to that Patrik got some calls from USA and left to play in America). The EP master tape is unfortunately destroyed and beyond repair ... Per then moved on with other bands such as 220 Volt (under the name Voltergaist) during 1992-93, Mandrake Root 1994-98 (4 albums together with the Free From Sin Hammond virtuoso Staffan Stavert). In the year 2000 Blacksmith Mark III recorded another album, called "Once Upon A Star". During 2009-2010 Patrik and Per connected again and decided to record a demo in Patrik's home studio. The demo contained new but also a couple of old songs.

He thought this would be a great album to make. This of course triggered Per and Patrik with some new energy and they decided to record the album at Pama Records Studios. After the first album was well received, Patrik wanted to have a band instead of hired guns. Patrik also played in the cover band Burn. The boys in Burn were asked if they would consider to join the Free From Sin band and they accepted. And Free From Sin II was started. Free From Sin is not a religious band, but as thinking human beings, there is always room for questions. If you are Free From Sin, throw the first stone ...
