XSAVIOR

Xsavior biography
XSAVIOR is a Swedish progressive metal band who began when vocalist Göran Edman (YNGWIE J. MALMSTEEN,TIME REQUIEM),drummer Daniel Flores (MIND'S EYE,HUBI MESEIL & TEARS OF ANGER among many others) and guitarist Benny Jansson (TEARS OF ANGER,RIDE THE SKY) got together for the recording of Jansson's third solo album "Save the World" in 2003.The three veteran session musicians felt they had much in common musically and decided to join forces,with the aim of creating original music in the style that they loved...progressive metal.

Needing more members,they recruited keyboardist Matt Norberg,Daniel Flores' best friend since childhood.They soon found their bassist in Mathias Garnås (RIDE THE SKY) and XSAVIOR was born.

The new band immediately went into the studio and recorded their debut album "Caleidoscope",which was released in 2005.

XSAVIOR merges influences from metal,progressive rock and even pop and plays a fresh,innovative brand of progressive metal.If you merged DREAM THEATER,SYMPHONY X,QUEEN,STYX and THE FLOWER KINGS....XSAVIOR might be the result.Highly recommended!
