Hi my name is Fredrik Stanne. Im the lead singers brother. I just wanna say that i loved you reaction to there song. Its awesome that its for everyone not just metal fans. Proud litle brother 🇸🇪🇸🇪💪
I'm very familiar with Mikael Stanne's (singer) work. Dark Tranquility, his main band, has a huge discography since the 90s and a new album coming out this year. Part of the Gothenburg metal scene that helped define the melodic death metal genre. The Halo Effect, his side project with ex-members of legendary In Flames (also from Gothenburg, was also briefly a member), put out their first album in 2022 and expected to have a release this year as well. Cemetery Skyline, his other side project, has an album coming this year. Supergroup with members from amazing melodeath and black metal bands. Grand Cadaver, his other other side project, is kind of unknown to me. You won't find many similarities to this band, except from more recent Dark Tranquility. Everything else is heavier, with mostly growling vocals. I don't know if that would turn you away, but he's one of my favorite dynamic vocalists. His growling and clean vocals are so good together. I'd recommend Atoma or The Dark Unbroken to ease into Dark Tranquility or Cemetery Skyline's first single, Violent Storm.
Cemetery Skyline was first introduced in February as it was announced the band will play this july in John Smith Rock Festival, nothing was on the internet about the band, no members known, not a single song, yet they get slot in rock festival. In picture was just 5 black figures and bands name. During spring, they created facebook and insta-accos and first revealed the drummer, Vesa Ranta. In later weeks they revealed every member 1 by 1 sometimes giving hints before, it was so cool to follow that ! Who are they ? And then first single came month ago and full album will come later in autumn. They made those brief videos where they told us, the band was idea of Micke (Vocals, DT, Halo Effect), Markus (Guitar, Insomnium, Omnium Gatherum) and Santeri (Keys, Amorphis), they probably know very well each other touring and festing together, thou in different bands, last 20 years or so they think "maybe we should do something together". And Stanne said that the music was mostly prepared during pandemic.
And not similar in musically, but on other way is that when metal musicians go into rock. This group "The Local Band" plays covers and this song with Alexi Laiho plays guitar in it works very well. th-cam.com/video/xLstl_f159w/w-d-xo.html
these guys have an album coming up later in the year....

I never heard of them either, and I did a quick bit of research. The band is a supergroup, made up of members of Dark Tranquility, Insomnium, Amorphis and Dimmu Borger. They're a brand new group, made up of extremely accomplished musicians from established Scandinavian bands. I don't know how much other material they have recorded, but I will sure be following up on them for more.
Hmm you're introducing me to bands now Maria (though these guys must have been around a minute from the looks of them, I should have known them) . Willing to bet they're from Scandinavia, they have that art metal vibe to them. Its very, very well done across the board. Great reaction!
