People who've read the Swedish death metal book, know that this gig -the first time Morbid Angel played Sweden- kicked the Swedish deathmetal scene into overdrive. Entombed released the blueprint with Left hand path and everything went from that point on. A key process in death metal imo.

Nah, I wouldn't say so. Bands like Dismember, Grave, Entombed, Unleashed ETC had demos out already in ´88.

You are right, because of tapetading with Morbid Angel and other bands, but this gig is one of the big events that set it all into overdrive.

And, I dare say because of being drunk, they all released albums afterwards, not before.

Not that I care about swedish death metal I think it's sucks, and most of the bands are copycats of Entombed, But I wouldn't say that this MOrbid Angel gig kickstarted the swedish scene. Most of the guys got their hands on a Repulsion or Autopsy cassette in 86-87, In the same era that they started their bands.

I'll change the title more precisely.



Page 144 and 146 of the Swedish death metal book says it.
