Ooo I had the privilege of seeing them a few times around Reroute to Remain and Come Clarity. Once was a festival, once opening for Bodom (Rest in Power, Alexi), and I think the most bizarre was with Atreyu?
With all of the amazing Swedeath out there, why would you choose trash?
No need for the gun; I brought Your Arms, My Hearse
Good album, controversial pick.
Alright, but my spongebob socks stay on

That's marriage material
Hell yeah, my kinda girl.
EDIT: just going to add that we'd both be vibing hard as fuck to Entombed's "Wolverine Blues".
Any recommendations on the genre? I can't really make out the names in the image
Ones I can identify from the image:
Entombed - Left Hand Path
Bloodbath - Resurrection Through Carnage
Carnage - Dark Recollections
At the Gates - The Red in the Sky is Ours
Opeth - Morningrise
Eucharist - A Velvet Creation
Edge of Sanity - Purgatory Afterglow
Grave - Into the Grave
Dismember - Massive Killing Capacity
Nihilist - Nihilist (1987-1989)
Also check out:
Afflicted - Prodigal Sun
In Flames - first 5 albums
Dark Tranquility
Soilwork
Some others that haven't been mentioned:
- Necrophobic - The Nocturnal Silence
- Cemetary - An Evil Shade of Grey
- Seance - Fornever Laid to Rest
- Unleashed - Where No Life Dwells
Big Swedish Death and Melodeath fan here. The first three easy recommendations for me would be Entombed -Wolverine Blues, At the Gates - Slaughter of the Soul, and In Flames - Colony.
Opeth, listen to early Opeth.
Left Hand Path by Entombed
Clandestine is great too. Wolverine Blues is a good starting point if you're not super familiar with Death Metal.
cheating : carcass, arch enemy
Real cheating is linking to this article and going "Check all of them out as they all have great material": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swedish_death_metal#Gothenburg_scene
Also, if my memory is correct Carcass is not actually Swedish, but hey. Heartwork continues to be a legit masterpiece.
Michael Amott Is Swedish though, but carcass is English. Hence cheating. Also while I love it, Arch enemy is quite well known and again, Michael Amott got his start in carcass in England 🤪
I'm not super well versed in Swedish DM in particular, but I can make out some band logos and album covers.
If you couldn't read "Grave", you weren't even trying.
The ones I recognize are Entombed, At the Gates and Edge of Sanity. All recommended.
And though I don't recognize anything in the meme, I also recommend Unleashed and LIK.
