Jon Jefferson Klingberg combines his writing with a music career. He plays the guitar for Swedish veterans Docenterna, and used to wield the axe in internationally known Whale and several local death metal bands at the end of the 80's.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. The definitive history of Swedish death metal and theunderground scene that reshaped extreme music worldwide.Blood, Fire, Death: A Swedish Metal Story by Ika Johannessontraces the rise of Swedish death and black metal from its roots in 1970s hardrock through the explosive underground movements of the 1990s and beyond. Asbands like Entombed, Dismember, and At the Gates gained international recognition,Sweden emerged as a central force in extreme music-helping define a sound andvisual aesthetic that would influence metal scenes across the globe.Through interviews, archival research, and scenedocumentation, Johannesson examines how a tight-knit network of musicians,fans, tape traders, and small labels built a movement that extended far beyondmusic. The book explores the evolution of the Swedish scene alongside the moreinfamous Norwegian black metal era, situating church burnings, ideologicalextremism, and media panic within a broader cultural and artistic context. Atthe same time, it highlights the community, friendship, and creative ambitionthat sustained the scene over decades.Both cultural history and music journalism, Blood, Fire,Death offers a detailed account of how Swedish metal developed its distinctivesound, imagery, and international reach. The book connects the genre's earlyDIY networks to its later global influence, showing how underground musicscenes evolve through collaboration, competition, and shared mythology.A key title for readers of heavy metal history, subculturestudies, Scandinavian culture, and modern music journalism. A full history of the black and death metal scene in the 90s. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781627310673
