Tad Morose is a Swedish heavy metal / power metal band formed in 1991 and led by guitarist Christer 'Krunt' Andersson. Their full-length debut was Leaving the Past Behind, a minor hit that established the band within the continental European heavy metal community. Sender of Thoughts (1994) was even more popular within the metal community. Their latest and most successful album to date is 2003's Modus Vivendi. Though the group has never caught on in America, they have a larger and growing European base.
In late 2005, Tad Morose parted ways with singer Urban breed (who joined Bloodbound). This delayed recording for the next album, which was set to begin in early 2006, because first a new singer had to be found. On March 9, 2006, Tad Morose announced their new frontman - American metal legionnaire Joe Comeau, formerly of Liege Lord, Overkill and Annihilator. In early October 2007 Daniel Olsson, now in Trail of Murder with ex-vocalist breed, decided to leave the band.
In late 2007, Christer Andersson announced a 'reuniting' of his old pre-Tad Morose project, Sefer Jezirah, with members of Morgana Lefay. As of December 2007, Peter Morén had joined Steel Attack, and Anders Modd was working with Wolf.
In late May, 2008, a replacement for Daniel Olsson was announced. Markus Albertson, former in Bloodbound got in on guitar.
