Legacy
Long before Lex Legion, Pete Blakk carved his name into the bedrock of heavy metal as guitarist for King Diamond, one of the most iconic and theatrically daring acts the genre has ever produced.
Those years on the road and in the studio with King Diamond shaped Pete into the guitarist he is today: precise, atmospheric, and always in service of the song.

Further Legacy
Origins
Pete founded a band that eventually took the name Blakk Totem, recording foundational material at Studio Bohus that would shape his approach to songwriting for years to come. The sessions brought together a remarkable cast of musicians who would each go on to make their mark across the metal world.
Florida · 2009
Pete relocated to Florida and launched Disaster/Peace, enlisting vocalist Wade Black of Leatherwolf and Crimson Glory fame. The self-titled debut album followed in 2010, showcasing Pete's evolution as both guitarist and bandleader in a new chapter far from his Scandinavian roots.
Throughout the years
Beyond his own projects, Pete has appeared as a guest on recordings and live performances with a number of acts across the heavy metal spectrum, cementing his reputation as one of the genre's most versatile and respected guitarists.
