Profile The new Swedish classic hard rock band Major Instinct is the brainchild of M.ILL.ION founder, main songwriter and bass guitarist B.J Laneby, when he decided to put M.ILL.ION to rest and start something new, as it happened in late December 2014 when Major Instinct was formed in Gothenburg. A band, not a project! The line-up soon was completed with Stefano Marchesini (lead vocals, ex Human Race), Magnus Mild (guitars), Johan Häll (drums, ex- M.ILL.ION) and 22-year old newcomer Gabriel Glamheden (Hammond & keys).

The songwriting took place in the first part of 2015 and carries on the vibe of bands like Thin Lizzy, Whitesnake, KISS and Deep Purple. The major part of the lyrics, all written by B.J Laneby, reflects on the rollercoaster ride called life. In May 2015, the band decided to go with Metal Heaven and Major Instinct signed a deal with them for Europe. With a deal and a budget in place, July 2015 was spent in the Rabbit Hole Studios in Gothenburg Sweden. Guitarist Magnus Mild was the engineer, Victor Olsson took care of the mix and Martin Kronlund of JM Studio mastered the album.
