Music
I'd like to promote two Swedish bands that I really like:
Let me drain!
Let me die!
Let me break the things I love I need to cry!
Let me burn it all!
Let me take my fall
Through the cleansing fire!
Now let me die!
Let me die!
- Daniel Gildenlöw, 2001
The quote is from the album Remedy Lane by the Swedish prog-metal band Pain of Salvation. This band really appeals to me with their combination of beautiful and original melodies and interesting lyrics. Check them out, it's totally worth it.
Opeth combines very heavy music with softer and more melodic elements, a very successful combination in my opinion. The ironic thing is that I've seen them play in Montreal,but never in Sweden.
