    Artist History
    Heave was formed in 1994 by drummer Patrik Nikolic, and soon became a familiar act among Stockholm night clubbers and concertgoers. In those early days, the band discovered the straight and simple philosophy which has kept HEAVE’s music popular among Stockholm audiences. Singer Per Rickard dealt out melodic doom with his signature mix of rough and smooth vocals, while Finnish powerhouse Putti Stoor handled the rough and driving guitar work HEAVE’s songs have become known for. Pasi J Lappi on bass and Patrik Nikolic on drums completed the act’s thick wall of classic sound. Over the years, HEAVE have played virtually every club house and concert hall in Stockholm, and toured other cities in Sweden as well as Finland. The end result of this long standing musical effort were HEAVE’s three demo CDs, “Beguile”, “Self Destruction” and “Lies”. The band was dealt a severe setback after recording “Lies” when singer Per Rickard left permanently for personal reasons. For a long time, HEAVE stood with no permanent vocalist and no songwriting effort. In the summer of 2001 this situation was remedied by the addition of new singer Andi Kravljaca, whose smooth sound and high register has found its place in the band. Immediately after Andi joined, the band began recording the demo “Time 2002”, and marked a departure into more modern and rougher territories. The culmination of the band’s mutual quest for the American-German sound which has since become HEAVE’s trademark is the demo CD “Fears Come Alive”, recorded in late 2002 at RR studios in Stockholm. The band are currently promoting this CD and continuing to take their own sound of metal to new melodic dimensions, further adding to the power and reputation of HEAVE’s force-ome.
