The Swedish TV channel "TV" 3 ran a contest looking for musicians to build a rock band in 2006. The show was called "Wannabe" and the TV viewers could follow them from week to week how a band slowly took form.
The five guys who won became Tribal Ink. They got the chance to do some gigs and record a single, called "To My Face," which didn't sell very well. Their label still wanted the band to record a full length CD anyway.
They might be working on a new album according to their site on www.myspace.com/tribalink2007.
The band gained underground popularity because an unknown fan mislabeled several of their songs on many P2P file-sharing networks as songs from Linkin Park's then upcoming album Minutes to Midnight.
