Swedish Singing Metal Bands

[Fucking Åmål]

OK i am interested in any 80's metal bands obscure or not that sing in Swedish.Swedish is a language with strange pronunciation and when is singed it is very glooooommmmy!It suits very well with the obscure and doomy stuff.Sadly only few had chosen to sing in Swedish.So i want to seen more refered.

ONYX
WULCAN
VICTIM
OVERLORD
and more which i can't think right now, more?
Fuck!that Epicus Doomicus Metallicus LP from Candlemass i wished it was done in Swedish Language!

Interesting you'd say that. Being swedish and thus understanding the language I could never interprete it as "gloomy".

The Nattsvart 7" is mandatory of course, and Helvetets Port continue the tradition partly.
There were a bunch of demo acts in the 80's who sang in swedish - and some which did singles, but most swedish singing units were quite pub rockish.

..but most swedish singing units were quite pub rockish.

True - and OVERLORD was one of the worst ones imo. There's no coincident it didn't make the 707-list. Some of those early Hard Rock singles have grown on me through the years though, like JEREMIAH, TYFUZ, VAMPA and especially the Heavy & Moodfilled WAGABOND! I'm gonna go through the archives tonight and throw together something for a special thread on the subject in Poisonoise tomorrow.

As for demos I can only think of the fantastic JONAH QUIZZ right now.
