Faceshift is a metal band, formed in 2005 in Stockholm, Sweden.

History

Faceshift, from Stockholm, Sweden is a band that, while firmly rooted in classic heavy metal from the 80's and 90's, incorporates elements of grunge, prog, death and blues to create their own blend of music. The band's second album, the critically acclaimed All Crumbles Down, embodies the diversity of all the members' musical origins, ranging from drummer Stefan Norgren's prog metal roots from Seventh Wonder, via singer Timo Hovinen's grunge-esque vocals, through the death landscapes mastered by bassist Mika Kajanen and Petri Tarvainen, to lead guitarist David Bertilsson's bluesy touch.
