Aces High were formed as Eyes in 1989 by guitarist
Jake
Sandberg, bassist Anders J:son and keyboardist David Brandt. Later
the same year they got in touch with Danish singer Bjorn Andersen
and also changed the name of the band to Aces High, since a US band
named Eyes had emerged on the music scene.The following year they
acquired drum. Mats Björkman (ex-Quadruple) and in 1994 they
released their first album "Ten ‘n out" which proceeded to be very
successful in Japan and entered high on the import charts. Fans of
their melodic hardrock had to wait some years for the follow-up,
though. "Pull no punches" was released in 1998, now with Björkman
replaced by Anders Johansson (ex-Yngwie Malmsteen, also in
Hammerfall) on drums.And after another long wait their third album
"Forgive & Forget" was released in 2004.
