In 2003 Calle Sundberg met up with bass player Björn Sköldmark (Heroes of Vallentor) and started a band called Frozen.
It later envolved to become a more serious band when the lead guitarist, Mattias Johansson and the drummer Manfred Söderholm joined the band.
In 2005 they recorded their first demo "The forgotten one" and a few gigs were played.
In 2006 they recorded and realesed their second demo called "Shadows in the dark", recorded by Rickard Ökvist in Luleå. It was appreciated by the underground-scene wich led to more continuous gigs. Later that year Manfred decided to leave the band for personal issues, wich left them without a drummer. Niklas Karvonen, now (Machine supremacy) joined the band as a session drummer.
In search for a permanent drummer they found Mats Holma and they went back into the studio and recorded their third demo "Boybands Apocalypse", also recorded by Rickard Ökvist in the darkest depths of Kalix.
Unfortunately Mats decided to leave the band and Erik Forsgren (Slowgate, Machine) joined as a session drummer.
In 2008 Tommy Reinxeed joined the force as the new drummer and the band changed their name to Arized as the start of a new chapter.
2009, Björn Sköldmark leaves and gets replaced by Johan Tranborg and in 2011 the band gets in contact with Christian Liljegren at Doolittle Group. Unfortunately there was already a band called Arise and the record company insisted them to change the band name.
Charlie Shred was born and their debut album got recorded by Tommy Reinxeed and will be released in the summer of 2012.
