It all started back in the year 1993 when the guitarplayer Robert Warnqvist, basplayer Magnus Jönsson and the drummer Leif Erixon was looking for a new vocalist to the band called Easy Street. And with a deal (UFO -Records) just waiting to be signed, they really needed a good singer fast. After eight months of looking around in Sweden they found the former Powerhouse singer Thomas Thorsén. After just listening to his demotape the band was all fired up about this singer. So in the early 1994 the band started to work with Thomas Thorsén, writing songs for their debutalbum due to be released in 1995. Before the recording of the album started, the band decided to change their name to Damned Nation.

The debutalbum "Just what the doctor ordered" was released worldwide in June 1995. The album featured two tracks written by James Christian (House Of Lords) and it achieved critical acclaim, especially within Japan. Burrn Magazine rated it 88/100 and called the band - "The brightest hope from Sweden". The album sold very well and 1995 was a great year in the bands history!

1996 started out great too, a video was made and the band did a lot of clubgigs in Sweden. The band had started to write material for the forthcoming album. But for some unknown reason it was delayed by the label. After a lot of struggeling with the recordcompany things finally seemed to be happening. In the beginning of 1997 they were asked to do a 10 weeks long promotiontour in Thailand and they did it with a promise that when they returned home, the second album should be recorded!! But once again it was delayed!!! At this point of time Leif Erixon was replaced by former "Dead End Street" drummer Roger Jern. Another year went by and nothing happened. It was time to break up with UFO-Records.

Said and done, a demo was recorded and shipped to several labels. Z-records president Mark Alger was the first to contact the band and a deal was signed with Z-records in the late 1998. Now the band just needed a keyboardplayer and they found Anders Andersson. A young talanted keyboardplayer who joined the band in november 1998. In Jan/Feb 1999 the band finally went into the studio to record 13 new tracks for the second album "Road Of Desire" (12 tracks in Europe + 1bonus for Japan).

Shortly after the release of ROD, keyboardplayer Anders left the band due to other commitments. Once again there were one man short in the lineup. The band continued to write material for the fourthcoming album and later on they teamed up with a local keyboardplayer Anders Lindén (Bloomindays, Wood). In January 2000 the recording of Grand Design started, all keys was done by Anders Lindén who was supposed to join the band but just after the album was finished he had to step back due to personal reasons.

In May 2000 exactly one year after the release of ROD, Grand Design was released. Since there were a keyboardplayer short, Michael Rosengren from Scudiero was hired to do the keys live. Since then Michael has helped the band on several occations. In Michaels abcense Thomas Lassar from Dreamhunter has also been a part of the "Live lineup".

2001 was mostly spent writing material for a followup to the highly acclaimed Grand Design. This time we wanted to develope our sound and songwriting. We wanted it to be heavier and a bit more up to date than previous albums, without loosing the strong melodies that has become somewhat of a trademark for the band. We started to discuss who could help us develope that sound and we realized that we should contact the "king of trash" Tomas Skogsberg. If someone could make us sound "rawer" it would be him! Said and done, he emidiately liked the idea of MHR/AOR produced more agressively and he really felt that he could do something with the new material we sent him. In the fall of 2001 singer Thomas Thorsén left the band, he had just become a father and he felt that he couldn't find the time and commitment to stay in the band. The recording of the new album had to be put on ice while we searched for a worthy successor. After a couple of months we found our man in Matti Alfonzetti. Matti is regarded as one of the strongest vocalists in Sweden and has worked with a lot of the "big names" in the business. So now we're back on track again!
