Grave

Emerging from the Swedish death metal scene in the late '80s, Grave first made an impact upon their surroundings with the fittingly titled 1991 debut Into the Grave. Following with their second album, 1992's You'll Never See, the band's line-up remained with Ola Lindgren on guitar, Jensa Paulsson on drums and Jorgen Sandstrom on bass and vocals -- or "growling" as the case may be. After release of the 1993 EP ...And Here I Die...Satisfied, and their third album, 1994's Soulless, Lindgren took over on guitar and vocals after Sandstom respectively departed for Entombed in 1996. Later on that year, Grave's fourth full-length Hating Life was released followed the 1999 live album Extremely Rotten Live. ~ Mike DaRonco, All Music Guide
