DIZZINESS started as a school band in Norrköping where Lars Boquist and Daniel Gese were the core. Made their debut record appeareance on the 'Östgötarock (1982)' compilation with the song "Crusin". Tomas joined the band in 1984 and they started the recording of their debut EP 'Take It Or Leave It'. It was released the following year on the Björnspår label. A full album was also recorded at BMB Studios entitled 'On the Rocks', it was ready to be released in spring 1986 but Björn (the label owner) wanted to see if any bigger company was interested to buy the product. One label wanted them to sing in Swedish so they renamed "Hard Luck Woman" to "Tankar I Natten", the result was terrible and laid on ice.
Shortly afterwards Criss Brown finds interestest in the band and want to take them to USA. DIZZINESS tries to leave Björnspår who now want to release the album as fast as possible. After some struggle with both Criss and the label DIZZINESS had enough and splits. Lars B, Lars H and Daniel G starts over as HEARTLINE with the new vocalist Jonas Blum and Joachim Åberg on keyboards. A couple of demos are recorded before they become POLE POSITION. In later years guitarist Lars Boquist created REPTILIAN and are today active in FAIR OF FREAKS.
