The first band, Entombed, the singer "Elge", died recently but when I was 13 years old he taught me to play the drums. Thanks to him, I toured Sweden with my band as a drummer, He was a very good drummer and a nice person :)

[@ArchieArpeggio]

Damn, i didn´t know that he´s dead 😪. RIP for him.

L.G Petrov. A modern legend! R.I.P!

[@Kaspisify]

My condolences

[@Tehinke]

A top ten list of swedish metal bands is incomplete without at least thirty of them.

[@johnhavardvalebrokk6151]

This video only scratched the surface. Sweden's absolutely incredible when it comes to metal. A personal favourite of mine at the moment is Enforcer. A relatively young traditional speed metal band from Sweden that I adore.

[@LordOfSweden]

My favorite is Thrown right now 100%. I will take tips gladly. Haven't heard a good new Swedish metal band in ages. There was a really good metalcore band but I just cannot remember the name for the world of me.

[@Snickyization]

I went to a Meshuggah concert (i´m a techno-head) and it was the most awsome thing i´ve ever experienced.

[@cryptotalksnetwork]

Life altering experience..

[@alvdansen7172]

Avatar, Sabaton, Orbit Culture, In Flames, Hammerfall, Opeth, Arch Enemy, Amon Amarth, all of them are amazing swedish metal bands. Please check out some of their songs.

[@jariannala4189]

sabaton??...löl

[@blaspheriongoatcommander54]

These are just the popular and cheesy ones. There exist much better ones

[@Vilja1982]

@@blaspheriongoatcommander54 Now that would totally depend on what kind of music and sound you like. Very many love Sabaton, cause they like their style. For me anything with growling sounds horrible, but I respect that others might like it.

[@blaspheriongoatcommander54]

@@Vilja1982 There's nothing wrong with that. I personally feel that Metal must have a dark, eerie, malevolent, even offending nature and this bands don't deliver that. I also love a lot of 80s Metal and yes that's not that dark mostly.. It's not anything personal against f.e. Sabaton, they are a hard working band for sure and they earn their success. It's just not for me and I think they and their audience don't belong into the Metal circle at all.

[@loris-bismar]

Det är lite surrealistiskt att se mina vänners band på din lista och att också se någon påpeka att listan bara innehåller de mest populära banden. Det verkar inte riktigt sjunka in hur stora de verkligen blivit. Oavsett, sjukt kul att se i vilket fall och det glädjer mig enormt mycket att något av alla våra band vi hade tog sig vidare. Inte alls förvånande då de alltid var de mest drivna av oss. Plus att både Tim och Jonas har riktigt snygga mustascher 😂.

[@ellelillen]

I personally really like all of these bands, i found it wierd Sabaton was not on there though. The Swedish metal band iv'e been listening to the most in recent time is Raubtier. Mostly because of how much i like Per Hulkoff's songwriting and how good they are live.

[@patriksjoholm7102]

Very strange that Candlemass is not on this list. The person that did this list seems to really, really like melodic death metal. I would swap out some of the melodic death metal bands with Dissection and Watain.

[@mikael950]

A list without bands like: Hypocrisy, Dismember, Grave, Lord Belial, Marduk, Dark Funeral, Dissection is not a complete list.

[@Gurupimp10]

Or "In Mourning" also decent

[@leelooki]

Yea come on Dissection has so many bangers. Also Watain

[@BerishStarr]

My favorites are Sabaton, Arch Enemy and Amaranthe. But the real legends are Messuggah and In Flames.

[@matsv201]

Yea.. i feel like evrerything i listen to missing from this list (apart from hammarfall i guess). To me this seams more like a dark/death metal list, considering how much large power metal bands there is.... And well.. mainstream one. Does europe not count, or are they to old?

[@eriknormark6085]

I guess that you could call Bathory a legend as well, but I wouldn't call it one of Swedens best bands.

[@ricmatify687]

Sabaton hands down! Would like to see you react to some of their videos. :)

[@Tim_Nilsson]

He has (Woodstock) on his Polish centred channel.

[@ingmariohman8242]

Sabaton is so worth listening to. A power metal band with amazing energy!

[@arnold2011]

Would love to see him react to „En Livstid i Krig“.

[@Molehasmoles]

Sabaton is mid

[@jensejense]

Sabaton is like deep purple. basic shit

[@LonewolfSWE]

"Candlemass" for sure! Unbelievable they're not on the list considering their impact on doom metal (which is my favorite sub genre so I'm biased of course)... ;) "Draconian" is also a must in this list with the sadness, the ethereal beauty and somber heaviness. "Avatarium" - very unique style with both playfulness, great storytelling and doom riffs, founded by Leif Edling (Candlemass) "Watain" is iconic black metal - cruel, dark and fearless! "Marduk" is another classic black metal band with brutality combined with raw power. "Thundermother" - all female lineup with great catchy metal and party vibes.

[@Rabbel5520]

oh wow a swedish draconian fan??

[@jimbose]

Opeth is the number one band. Of all time. That's it.

[@karinboman6877]

MAJESTICA , number 1 on my list!

[@johaneriksson1088]

Ooo man, on that list only two would make my top ten, InFlames and Arch Enemy. You still have much to find on the Swedish metal stage

[@Megnanus]

I'm so glad that they picked Bathory as number one. Bathory created two genres, Black Metal and Viking (folk) metal. Thomas was a genious but sadly he never got to live long enough to see how legenday Bathory would become.

[@MiotaLee]

Yes, my guy. We have more than 10 metal bands xD my favourite from this list is in flames 😚

[@burkmat]

My favourite sub genre is melodic death metal, which is also called "the Gothenburg sound". Dark Tranquillity, In Flames, At the gates, Ceremonial oath and The halo effect are the best ones of that genre. Also like symphonic and black metal. Plus they totally should've included Sabaton on the list. Definitely a top 10 band. 🤘

[@danideath1726]

You forgot the best.. Eucharist

[@TrollPowah]

dark tranq is not in the same league as In Flames and ATG

[@Bourbon_de_Gironde]

Hi! Honestly, it's difficult to choose! I love Swedish metal! So, if I have to name 10 bands which are not in this top 10, I would say EDGE OF SANITY (with the legendary Dan Swanö), DISSECTION (I love very much Storm of the Light's Bane and Reinkaos), GRAND MAGUS, OTYG [and VINTERSORG] (with that [those] band[s], I discovered the greatfulness and the beauty of the Swedish langage), TWILIGHT FORCE (a new but great band), MARDUK (Feuer!!! Don't let an ear alive!!!), THE CROWN (their magnum opus, Deathrace King, has some barbaric poetry inside), OPHTHALAMIA (Via Dolorosa, their second album, is a chef-d'oeuvre... with English AND Swedish Lyrics), DIABOLICAL MASQUERADE, and BEWITCHED (heavy black metal for the dark soul... Hellcult!!!)... (Nota Bene: I love much more DARK TRANQUILLITY [The Gallery is so great!!!] than IN FLAMES... for sure!]

[@Tim_Nilsson]

The person who made that list must like growling/screaming. =P That Sabaton wasn't on that list is just bonkers.

[@DavidHansson81886]

its just right that sabaton isn´t on the list. if you´re tonedeaf absolutely they should be on the list

[@pistolsscaramanga3437]

Somehow Sweden’s greatest metal band, the doom pioneers Candlemass, didn’t make the list. Instead the focus was solely on technical metal bands (well maybe not Bathory…)

[@lanciii]

Missing some great ones like Katatonia, Soilwork, At The Gates, The Haunted, Orbit Culture etc!

[@SaraJfai]

Haha, I was thinking of exactly the same band as you. I have to mention Kill the kong, and Beyond all Recognition to.

[@MagnusTorell]

"Opeth" is number one band from Sweden today... closely followed by "Candlemass"... Love your accent man... ;-)

[@katrinaspegren485]

Tommy Johansson is platina gitarr in Sabaton.Tommy have his own band called Majestica and Tommy do covers like Queen Celine Dione Elton John and many more you must check him .He is a very good Singer and play many instrument by himself.A music geni

BATHORY - athory was a black metal band/musical project formed in 1983 in the city of Stockholm, capital of Sweden, by multi-instrumentalist Thomas Börje Forsberg, better known by the name Quorthon. The band is considered one of the creators of both black metal and Viking metal. Bathory closed its activities definitively in 2004, when Quorthon passed away. The band's name is a tribute to the Hungarian Countess Erzsébet Báthory, considered Hungary's most famous serial killer. The band's first four albums are considered the starting point for the creation of Scandinavian black metal. The band stopped following this style on their fifth album, Hammerheart (1990), this album is cited as one of the first Viking metal albums. THERION - Still, what is called symphonic metal started with the extreme metal band (even inspired by the satanic and pagan metal) Swiss Celtic Frost. In the 1984 album if Morbid Tales where we heard in the songs Return to the Eve a woman in narration and Danse Macabre, this looks like a movie score with violin and something atmospheric (can be confused with gothic). Most people mention the 1985 album To Mega Therion, because there is opera and orchestra here. From To Mega Therio album from Celtic Frost, Christopher got the name for his band, THERION, is considered the father of symphonic metal, but it is very different from Nightwish. They mix the 70's prog and classic composer Richard Wagner. I believe that this band is in fact symphonic for the great choirs and great orchestras, using many opera singers. The DNA would therefore be Uriah Heep, Celtic Frost and Therion. The band started in 1987 and released 17 albuns. It started like death metal and has always used themes geared towards paganism. Most of its lyrics are written by Thomas Karlsson, head and founder of the magical order of Dragon Rouge, which Johnsson is a member. Therion (Christopher) is the father of symphonic metal and the starting point is the song Symphony of the Dead (features more atmospheric keyboard sounds as well as soprano vocals and classically styled clean male vocals by two guest musicians.) from album Beyond Sanctorum (1992 ) and the song Paths. Finally, and very importantly, Christofer invented symphonic metal as opera. the Symphonic Term was not created by him. In fact, Christofer recognizes that Nightwish made the genre popular, but criticizes those bands that came later, because the idea is to compose operas and not just orchestrations.

[@tntfreddan3138]

Sweden is one of the most influential countries when it comes to Metal as well. Especially when it comes to Death Metal. Early Swedish Death Metal was originally inspired more by Hardcor Punk than Metal. But very quickly there were two kinds of Death Metal forming in Sweden. Stockholm Death Metal, and Gothenburg Death Metal. Stockholm Death Metal was raw, fierce and extreme, almost resembling Thrash Metal, while Gothenburg Death Metal was more melodic and fast paced, sometimes resembling Black Metal. The first Stockholm bands were Morbin and Nihilist that formed in 1986 and 1987 respectively. Nihilist was the pioneers of the "Buzzsaw" guitar tone, which would become one of the trademarks of the entire Stockholm Death scene. The most prominent bands in the Stockholm scene were Entombed, Grave, Dismember and Unleashed. The first death metal band to form in Gothenburg was Grotesque, who formed in 1988 and were influenced by both early death metal and black metal. After the 1990 disbandment of Grotesque, the band's vocalist Tomas Lindberg and guitarist Alf Svensson formed At the Gates alongside brothers Jonas and Anders Björler. At the Gates' melancholic and melodic take on death metal proved immediately influential upon fellow Gothenburg bands, with Eucharist and Ceremonial Oath quickly adopting a similar style. Dissection and In Flames were also an early purveyors of this sound, additionally incorporating elements of black metal and folk music respectively. By 1993, Dark Tranquillity too began to incorporate more melodic elements influenced by At the Gates. Following the 1996 disbandment of At the Gates, critics dubbed this style the "Gothenburg sound", and At the Gates, Dark Tranquility and In Flames as the "Gothenburg big three", credited as pioneers of melodic death metal. Bands outside of Sweden inspired by the Gothenburg scene are usually called Swedecore-bands.

[@Komatsu860]

While not active anymore, back in the 90's Edge of Sanity was very influential in the metal scene. Same goes for Tiamat. And the list was great, but it boggles my mind that At The Gates wasn't mentioned, nor Candlemass and Katatonia, Dark Funeral, Watain, Soilwork and well I don't personally like Sabaton but you cannot deny their popularity. Also, Europe might be too soft for todays audiences and rather classified as hard rock, but they have their roots in metal as well, as doheavilly disputed but quite popular Ghost.

[@NicholasCorvin]

*My favourite METAL bands from Sweden are : AMARANTHE, ARCH ENEMY, SABATON, EVERGREY, HAMMERFALL, EUROPE, METALITE, AMON AMARTH, THE NIGHT FLIGHT ORCHESTRA, MAJESTICA,...* 🎵🎸🎭🎹🎵💿🎵🔥😈🔥

[@calaveth]

Meshuggah, Orbit Culture, Opeth, Cult of Luna are my top Swedish metal bands. I tend to lean toward Death/Progressive/Thrash metal. I wouldn't say metal is so mainstream that it's anywhere close to the most popular genre, but as a subculture, it's pretty big. There are tons of metal bands here. You could probably make a pretty good top 100 list with a bit of effort.

[@SubwaySweden]

There are hundred of Swedish metal bands that made it big internationally and hundreds more that are really good..... same as all nordic countries to be honest and yes I think (have not fact checked this, just heard it a bunch of times) that Sweden has the most metalheads per capita in the world.

[@BadBlitz]

You should check out Brothers of Metal, nice music and some humor thrown in as well 😊

[@kimarefall]

Meshuggah should be number 1 simply because of their influence. Metal in general they should be put high in. Wether you like them or not, you can’t deny they are one of the most influential metal bands of the last 2 or 3 decades.

I would say that Bathory should be no1. If you Ask any band on that list of there influences they say Bathory.

@@danieljansson2310 Yeah, Bathory is the kind of band that the musicians listened to and learned from. Definitely a deserved spot.

[@Elis_Nordgall]

@@danieljansson2310 No, Meshuggah is still more influential, they created djent, majority of today’s metal is djent or djent adjacent. Tomas’ style of drumming is also quite influential, although he wasn’t first with it, he did it very well, if not the best.

[@alessandroporcu5450]

Now One of the best swedish band are the Orbit culture. Absolutely Amazing

[@firebirdwillgaming4193]

As a swede and a massive metal head I can definatly say that there are a lot of great bands from Sweden. Some of my favourites Swedish bands are In Flames, Soilwork, At the Gates, Grayscale Season, Meshugga (sometimes). Death metal is the biggest one in Sweden I think (or maybe power metal, idk), but there are so many genres that there is something for everyone. But outside of In Flames (wich I adore) I mostly listen to Japanese or American metal bands, because there are more in the genres I like. I really like melodic death metal (In Flames), ´´metalcore´´(Architects, A7X, BFMV, SiM, Lamb of God, Spiritbox, Children of Bodom), and many many more (Gojira, 5FDP, Metallica, Slipknot, Megadeath). I especially like alternative bands that are complex: Sokoninaru, Polyphia, Ichika Nito. But the bands I like most are the japanese ones like: SiM, Sokoninaru, Maximum The Hormone, The Gazette, Wagamama Rakia, Telecide, Pascode, Ladybaby, Babymetal. And outside of metal I´d say Nirvana, The Oral Ciggarettes, natori, eve, TK, radiohead, Yoasobi. Did not mean to write this much hahahha, I guess I just really love metal.

[@aboyborninjune]

Band, I don't know. But there is an album from 2003 called The Great Fall that trumps everything else I've ever heard in metal. First of all, it's a compositional masterpiece, second, it has a completely unique sound. It's a dark and mysterious concept album revolving around the end times and the fall of humanity - a dark journey to the end of the world. It's melodic, neo-classical and slightly symphonic. Unlike everything else - it sounds like nothing else. A real gem, completely hidden in obscurity. The band is called Narnia.

[@nenikiato3230]

[@Jim_86]

Meshuggah, Amon Amarth, In Flames Dark Tranquility and Arch Enemy are my favorite bands. Amon Amarth's songs are about Viking mythology and history, and so they have sometimes been labeled "Viking metal" although the band insists they play melodic death metal.

[@TheRipa89]

I like In Flames, Soilwork, Dark Tranquility, Katatonia, The Haunted, Sonic Syndicate, At the gates, Dead By April and many more. It is amazing how good metal bands comes from Sweden. Just like from Finland.

[@matstjader]

Pretty much every band on that list have in some form pioneered some sub genre of metal music and every single one in those band are excellent musicians. In my view, the one band notably missing from the list is Sabaton. While I'm not listening to them myself they are the only (Swedish) band today that are anywhere close to filling arenas by themselves. From a personal point, Orbit Culture is one of my most listened to bands (and they just released a new single).

[@Moja421]

I think Ghost can fill pretty big stadiums too but I guess you could argue if they are metal

[@michaelsandstrom911]

therion was the first real symphonic metal band.. evolved from a more death metal band.. they need way more recognition

[@Sweboben]

In flames is hands down my favourite. But amon amarth and arch enemy is really good live. Wicked energy and crowd going nuts. Also love Sabaton as many said in the comments. Worth mentioning is the halo effect, imminence and soilwork. Bit smaller bands but I really enjoy their music. Cant believe someone created a list of swedish metal bands without Sabaton or Ghost for that matter. I would not say metal is the most popular music in sweden. Among my friends (not very good sample) I would say 2/3 listen to some metal songs. Growling seems to be the hardest to digest for my friends but I love it.

[@pr1m0n]

My top 5: 1. Orbit Culture 2. Sabaton 3. In Flames 4. Amon Amarth 5. Dark Tranquillity

[@Censeo]

I practically agree with the list. I'm familiar with all of the bands. I guess because I'm a gen X metal head living close to Sweden. I discovered Opeth in 1998 and they blew me away instantly. Also love their new prog rock style

[@Dabluekitten]

My top 10 (no special order) Amon Amarth Vanha Arch Enemy Opeth At the gates Orbit culture When nothing remains In flames October tide Doom:VS Of these? Amon Amarth 🤘🖤

[@kitcorpse]

Mert, it would be interesting to hear your top Scottish Metal bands. BTW Candlemass is my top

[@renejensen7799]

No Orbit Culture on list, are you kidding me!! they are by far the metal band in the world making big things at moment imo.. 1. Orbit Culture 2. Sabaton 3. Opeth 4. Arch Enemy 5. Therion 6. Meshuggah 7. In Flames 8. Amaranthe 9. Hammerfall 10.Amon Amarth Could be like this, and my 3 first picks is bands i listen to regulary, rest only now and then.. Orbit Culture is what i listen most to at moment, Sabaton maybe the band i respect the most overall.. Opeth got some real good songs that i absolutly love.. Therion is also a band i respect a lot, they kind of invented the genre Symfonic metal.. Arch enemy is a band i would love to go to a live concert , even i dont listen to their studio that much..

[@ann-sofienilsson9400]

Some of my favorites that are not included on this list are Sabaton, Hellacopters, Imperial state electric and Mustasch there are also Ghost and lots of other bands I think you will enjoy listening to them.

[@HelvetetsPort]

1. Gotham City 2. Zone Zero 3. Heavy Load 4. Mindless Sinner 5. Axewitch 6. Witch 7. Onyx 8. Rubycon 9. Insane 10. Highlight

[@JohnnyThulin]

You should check out Sabaton and Majestica.

[@JörgenSvensson-c9o]

Europe is probably the best metal band in Sweden, but my personal favorite vill always be Silver Mountain from Malmö.

[@MaskinJunior]

I would say most Swedish metal bands are bigger outside Sweden than inside Sweden. The genre is not that enourmous in mainstream Sweden. But you will find metal-fans everywhere.

[@eldsdrak]

At the gates is not in that list!? I see you get many good recommendations in the comments. But I'd like to add The crown. The five first albums are great. On Crowned in terror Tomas Lindberg (At the gates) does the vocals and writes some of the lyrics.

[@loris-bismar]

There are so many good metal bands from all genres in Sweden and it would take me forever to write them all down. So, i will instead give a shoutout to some bands for either being childhood friends or who i got to know while we played on tours/festivals together: Avatar Månegarm Fejd Amon Amarth Warheim Istapp Thyrfing The Last Band They all deserve their praise. I of course did the Swedish thing here and never mentioned my own band 😂

You could make a top 40 list and still only have world class metal. Having a swedish metal band list without Sabaton, Soilwork, At the gates and Dissection just feels wrong but so does removing any of the bands from this list.

[@AlvisHundalskare]

Sweden? Where is this magical place that makes such wonderful music? I would travel there to see these bands then I’d be forced to visit my brother, my sisters and my parents. Not worth going back home for just some music.

From the list I like Arch Enemy, Hammerfall, Amon Amarth but there are missing atleast two definitely worth of mention like Amaranthe and especially Sabaton that is very close being the biggest metal band in the Sweden at the moment. Then I shall add very energetic Dynazty and Brothers of Metal that is nice etheric viking mythology style band.

[@YonasBonas]

Amon Amarth is probably the best viking metal band there is. and At the gats is an honorable mention, their album "Slaughter of the soul" might be the most influential metal album of all time.

Nr 1 for me is Sabaton, History metal, and I can't believe that the aren't on the list. Another one that is missing from the list is In Flames. Songs from Sabaton, a lot of people when reacting start with Bismark or No Bullets Fly animated story video. In flames I would say listen to Meet Your Maker. Amaranthe is another favorite for me and favorite song off them is still Nexus. Amon Amarth/viking metal made a collaboration with Saxon if you heard of them, song is Saxons and Viking.

Therion was one of the first Swedish Metal Bands i listened, Opeth and Arch Enemy amongst my favs too

[@johanbatcron1206]

Yeah I would say that’s an alright list. Some of my favorites are: Bathory, Marduk, Sarcator, Eternal Evil, Gehennah, Watain, Dismember, Nifelheim, Bastard Priest etc.

All the Nordic countries put out a lot of good metal bands. Metal is big here, but it do not gain much media coverage. At the same time, death metal bands sells out 10+ arena. Just this weekend I saw Soilwork, Arch Enemy and In Flames. But it is not a big thing really, if someone listens to metal. It is just what it is. My personal top 10 would look different, definatly. But it all comes down to personal preferance. Check out a most influential metal bands or something. Because Sweden have a lot more of them then what people think. Doom, melo death, black metal.. the list goes on.

[@larsuppling981]

all these are amazing bands, definitely a worthy Top 10 list. But... where is Sabaton?... :O

[@ingemarjohansson6847]

You need to listen to . ORBIT CULTURE . They are so awesome . You're list was good to . 👍👍🖤🖤🤘🤘

[@michaeltunnicliffe4935]

Won't Lie, I was expecting In Flames to be number 1. So when they came in at 3, I quickly thought, what are 2 Swedish bands more successful than In Flames. At risk of pissing off a lot of metal fans, I did think maybe they would count Ghost. I know, not metal. But I thought this video might have counted them. But the one which shocked me was the lack of Sabaton. I thought they would be a top 3, maybe one of the few who could beat In Flames even. But there is so much amazing Swedish metal. Some personal honourable mentions have to be Evergrey, At the Gates, Scar Symmetry, Avatar, The Haunted and Orbit Culture.

[@williamdegrey]

Best Swedish metal band is Candlemass.

[@hazeman4755]

I know most of these bands but I don't really listen to any of them. As so many have commented it's weird that my favourite Swedish metal band Sabaton wasn't on the list. Being from Finland, I have listened mainly to Finnish metal (no shortage there) and Nightwish has always been my favourite. Hälsningar från Finland!

[@dennisgustafsson9826]

There is only ONE true favorite for me. Opeth !

[@dannethedude7099]
