My favourite groups


Metallica Pantera
One of the greatest thrash groups of all time. Some even say that Metallica 'invented' the entire genre... One word: Dynamic.
Furious vocals, lyrics and guitars. Unique.
Favourite record: "Master of Puppets" Favourite record: "Vulgar Display of Power"
Slayer Alice in Chains
Speed. "Grunge-metal" from Seattle, far from Nirvana... Heavy guitars, great vocals.
Favourite record: "Seasons in the Abyss"
Check out the Abyss for more Slayer info!
Favourite record: "Dirt"


Other favourites

Grip Inc. Sepultura
Dave Lombardo (Slayer's last drummer) formed a new group together with guitarist Waldemar Sorychta and the result was no less than excellent. 41 minutes of thrash with punk/HC vocals on their debut, "Power of Inner Strength". The brazilian death-gone-thrash-meisters with great lyrics.
Machine Head Queen
A quartet with a brilliant future if they manage to second their debut, "Burn My Eyes". I managed to catch them live here in Stockholm, and I was really impressed. Nice guys, too. One of the greatest rock groups of all time, IMHO.
Fear Factory Nirvana
Heavy, death-esque 'thrash' with an industrial touch. Probably the closest to death metal I will go. Nirvana or "how-to-make-a-two-chord-song-sound-great". Loooovely...
