Career

[edit | edit source]

In 1984, at age 11, Gildenlow formed a band called Reality,[2] which changed its name to Pain of Salvation in 1991,[2] and released its first album, Entropia, in 1997.

In 2001, he joined progressive rock supergroup Transatlantic on their European tour,[3] playing keyboards, guitar and singing. He re-joined Transatlantic in 2010, this time for a North American tour.[4]

In 2002, Gildenlow joined The Flower Kings on vocals, guitar, keyboards and percussion, playing on their albums Unfold the Future (2002), Meet the Flower Kings (2003) and Adam & Eve (2004). He departed The Flower Kings due to his opposition to US-VISIT which required submitting biometric data first before entering the U.S.[5]

In 2007 he provided spoken word to the track "Repentance" on Dream Theater's album Systematic Chaos, alongside many other guests including Corey Taylor, Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, Mikael Åkerfeldt and Jon Anderson.[6] In the same year he also sang on 01011001 by Ayreon.[7]

He was also due to tour with Transatlantic again in 2014 but was forced to step down due to personal issues and was replaced by Ted Leonard.[8] These personal issues were later revealed to be a flesh eating bacteria otherwise known as Necrotising Fasciitis which hospitalised him for six months.[9][10] The events of which were fictionalised in Pain of Salvation's tenth album In the Passing Light of Day which was released in 2017.[9]

In late 2017 he joined The Sea Within, a progressive rock supergroup consisting of guitarist Roine Stolt, bassist Jonas Reingold, drummer Marco Minnemann and keyboardist Tom Brislin.[11] This band released one self titled album in 2018, which featured guests Jon Anderson (Yes), Jordan Rudess (Dream Theater), Casey McPherson (Flying Colors) and Rob Townsend (Steve Hackett).[12]
