Rickard Alriksson was drummer and vocalist in Swedisch grindcore band Nasum. He formed the band with guitarist Anders Jakobson in the latter part of 1992.



In 1995 Nasum was invited for several live show. This led to some trouble as Rickard announced that he didn't want to participate in a live situation. The other bandmembers got in touch with Per Karlsson - former drummer in Swedish deathsters Suffer and nowadays fulltime member in Serpent - who accepted the conditions for the live shows. So Nasum did their livedebute in Åstorp, Sweden, with a session drummer.



This marked the very end of Rickards time in Nasum. He didn't share the same enthusiasm for the music and the lyrics as Mieszko and Anders, so he decided to quit. As a replacement, Jallo Lehto (Manwhile, Fleshrevels, among others) was tested but it didn't really work out, and after some consideration Anders Jakobson took the empty place behind the drums leaving Mieszko Talarczyk alone with the strings.
