Book Reviews of Swedish Death Metal
Book Review: A little disappointing
Summary: 3 Stars
All of the big metal magazines advertised this book, but this isn't really a book on "Swedish death metal." Don't buy it thinking that you will be getting anything near a comprehensive history of the genre. Instead, a more appropriate title would have been "My Favorite Swedish bands by Daniel Ekeroth." It isn't a bad book, but you should know what you're getting before you buy it. Ekeroth is a big fan of Entombed and admits his bias in the preface. As such, he seems to trace all "good" Swedish death metal to their doorstep. There's very little in here, for instance, on other good bands like Arch Enemy, Amon Amarth, Dark Tranquillity, Opeth, or In Flames, and how could you leave all of these out of a book called "Swedish death metal"?!! Disappointing.
