Spiritual Beggars

Spiritual Beggars is a Swedish stoner metal band from Halmstad, formed by Michael Amott,[1] who is known for his work with Arch Enemy, Carcass and Carnage.

The album featured artwork by the legendary artist Hans Arnold, depicting the members of the band in a fairytale world.

Spiritual Beggars toured Europe with Fu Manchu and made several festival appearances in support of the album.

The replacements were Janne "JB" Christoffersson of Grand Magus, who had been recommended to Amott by a mutual friend, while Roger Nilsson joined to handle the bass.

On Fire album was musically and vocally more melodic and saw the band delving deeper into 1970s hard rock for inspiration.
