Cudfish was put to the grave when Magnus and Björn went to Los Angeles to study at LAMA (Los Angeles Music Academy).

When they got back from Los Angeles, Daniel, Magnus and Björn decided to pick up their work and started RENAISSANCE OF FOOLS. They started to rehearse and write songs, but at the time they didn't have a singer.

In 2008 they met the very talented singer Kjell Bergendahl and their line-up was complete. They soon started recording their debut album which was mixed by Pelle Saether at Studio Underground. The mix was then sent to Alien Beans studio in North America where it was mastered by Ty Tabor of Kings X. The album also contains a guest appearance by Per Wiberg from Opeth.

Track listing

Those two musicians were Daniel Magdic, who has a background as guitarist and composer of Pain of Salvation, and Magnus Karlsson. Together they teamed up with Björn Tauman and Mathias Henrysson to start the band Cudfish.
