Como que no se alcanza a notar que la banda más importante del death metal sueco es Entombed!!!

[BazillionPoints]

No te preocupes, ENTOMBED se menciona por lo menos en 100 páginas un total de 500!

[BazillionPoints]

Ha, no problem.

[creepsomber]

fuck Ian Christe for not mentioning Dis-fucking-member, the Kings Of Swedish Death Metal!!!

[BazillionPoints]

yeah, I was struck speechless holding the book open to the Dismember/Nihilist/Treblinka flyer, just look at that thing! but thanks for telling her to fuck me,

[WTFISGUAM]

Try reading this book in a graveyard with some Entombed playing in the background and you will rate it a 10 out of 10...

Hailz from Guam ^__^

I finally received my signed copy of this amazing read. By the way, thank you Daniel Ekeroth for writing inside "Sex is Good, Satan is Greater" lol. Also for the bonus pin and flyers.

As I was reading it, I couldn't help but feel very cold and surrounded by death. The way it was described in certain parts of the book was so atmospheric. Full of ancient death and gruesome horror. Living up to the title Swedish Death Metal!!!

@pungentcorpse1 i heard its a really great book i plan on ordering a copy of the book.the swedish death metal scene has some really great bands i first heard bands like dismember hypocrisy grave inflames entombed through death metal record compilations.and i must say ive never been disappointed by a dismember grave or hypocrisy album.

@pungentcorpse1

Thanks! but I was an out-of-line-dick about it. Ian Christe has done an incredible amount of work to get metal recognized--specifically death metal--as being the valid art form it is, and deserves our respect. If it weren't for his Sirius radio channel, I'd have never heard "I Am A Viking", which I play ad nauseum, much to my friend's chagrin, hehe. Again, my apologies Ian.

[pungentcorpse1]

@creepsomber agreed a great fucking band!!
