Swedish metalhead and Borlänge son Nils Patrik Johansson, who is the vocalist in Astral Doors and Lion's Share, will release his first solo album, Evil Deluxe on Metalville this spring. You can already hear a teaser of the album below.

Nils Patrik explained: "I've have thought about a solo album for ten years, but then Civil War (the band) came into the picture and I used all my ideas for the three albums that we did. After my departure from them I felt that I wanted to focus 100% on Astral Doors and Lion's Share, but all of a sudden inspiration came back and from out of nowhere I had 10 new killer songs. It felt natural to hire my Lion's Share mate, Lars Chriss as producer and guitar player. My son Fredrik plays the drums on the album, so finally father and son Johansson will appear on the same album."

Other musicians on the album:

Andy Loos - Bass
Fredrik Bergh - Keyboard
Kay Backlund - Keyboard
Anuviel (Saecred Spirit ) - Keyboard
Marcus Bengts - Bass

...and some surprises.
