Tad Morose is a Swedish heavy metal band. Formed in Bollnäs, Sweden in 1991, they are led by guitarist Christer 'Krunt' Andersson. Their 1993 debut album was Leaving the Past Behind; subsequent releases include Sender of Thoughts (1994), Modus Vivendi (2003) and Chapter X (2018). Their style has been described as "a power/classic heavy metal hybrid with slight progressive tendencies."

History

Their original line-up was Christer Andersson, Per-Ola Olsson and Dan-Erik Eriksson. Their full-length debut was Leaving the Past Behind, a minor hit that established the band within the continental European heavy metal community. In the subsequent decade the band released a total of seven albums, culminating with Modus Vivendi in 2003.

Following the release of Modus Vivendi the band's membership underwent a number of changes. Singer Urban breed left for Bloodbound in late 2005. Breed was replaced by Joe Comeau in March 2006; Comeau left the band in 2008. As of 2018 the lead vocalist is Ronny Hemlin, formerly of Steel Attack. Daniel Olsson left the band in 2007, and was replaced by Markus Albertson, on guitar. In June 2008 an update appeared on the band's official site that a new band logo had been produced and that the band was continuing work on their forthcoming album. Bassist Anders Modd's departure was announced in July 2008; he was replaced by Tommi Karppanen.

After a hiatus of about ten years, the band released Revenant in 2013 and St. Demonius in 2015. Front-man Hemlin described the style of St. Demonius as "melodic heavy metal with a touch of symphonic prog". Their most recent album, Chapter X, was released in June 2018.
