Where have they gone? – Katsaus Ruotsin black/ death metallin historiaan

Kirjoittanut Riku Mäkinen - 10.8.2014

KansikuvaSanotaan, että Ruotsin black/ death metal skene eli kulta-aikaansa 90-luvulla, ja toki tuolloin julkaistiin tukku äänitteitä, jotka ovat jääneet historian kirjoihin aikansa klassikkoina. Kaaoszine teki oman katsauksensa länsinaapurin historiaan ja listasi yhtyeitä, jotka ovat olleet omalta osaltaan vaikuttamassa skenessä viime vuosituhannella/ vuosituhannen vaihteessa, ja ovat sitä kautta jääneet omiin muistoihimme elämään. Lista on koostettu yhtyeistä, jotka ovat joko virallisesti hajonneet tai joilta ei vaihtoehtoisesti ole tullut uutta julkaisua sen verran pitkään aikaan, että yhtyeen tämän hetkinen tila on sen takia epäselvä. Lue lisää nähdäksesi toimituksen läpileikkaus ruotsalaisen black/ death metallin historiaan.
