Recently i've discovered the swedish metal scene. 2 bands that have really caught my eye are Opeth and The Haunted. The experimental concepts that these bands imply interest me much more than most death metal bands of late, most of whom seem to be very stagnant and tend to recycle the riffs over and over. Opeth's "To Bid You Farewell" is a great,progressive song. The blend of acoustic and heavy distortion arrangements in the same song seems to really sum up the proggresion of metal through the past 40 years. I would like to incorporate some sort of swedish influence into my band,Scarlett Thunder.
