Alright, sweet. Another thing Sweden brings to mind, Volvo, uugghh...

Just had a quick check at youtube; both Parkway Drive and I Killed the Prom Queen seems to be quite good, I´ll definitely check them out a bit more. I don´t know if it´s just me but it seems to me that you can trace something of that "swedish" sound in their music, they´ve got a bit of that gothenburg sound (göteborgssoundet)

He he, I don´t really like volvos myself. I drive a Toyota and I´ll never buy another car if it isnt a Toyota or a Lexus. My brothers volvo breaks down all the time while my Toyota just keeps on running

A little maybe, theres definately a difference in vocals. The guitar tone isnt as noticeable as Swedish metal though, when you hear the intro to any Swedish metal band, you're just like, 'yep, i know where they're from'

[Nephre]

I can´t say what it is but there is something that reminds me of swedish metal. It´s not much but it´s still something

Big fan of Soilwork here as well, and well Meshuggah, I have loved them for years. I stumbled across them accidentally about 12 years ago in the states on tour with some other guys, been a fan ever since. I also like my Frederik Thorendahl solo album, Special Defects I think is the name of it.

I love metal simply because of the complexity, normal rock just trudges along and most sounds the same, but metal has so many different moods and sounds. I also like to fall asleep listening to metal. Recently while helping my wife at a youth camp and feel asleep at night listening to August Burns Red to drown out the kiddies.

I actually thought I posted that for a second!

It would be strange to live in a place where the only food is meatballs or little chewy candy fish....

That would be awesome! Assuming you love both of those foods.
