Everything about Tomas Lindberg totally explained
Tomas Lindberg (born
October 16,
1972), from
Gothenburg,
Sweden, has been active as a musician and composer since the late
1980s. He started as a vocalist in the band
Grotesque under the name Goatspell. When Grotesque fell apart he started
melodic death metal band
At the Gates. At the Gates broke up after the
1995 release of the highly acclaimed
Slaughter of the Soul album, but reformed in
2007. In 1995 Lindberg provided vocals for three tracks on
Ceremonial Oath's "
Carpet" while
Anders Fridén (
In Flames) provided vocals for the other four tracks.
Since then, Lindberg has been involved in many other diverse musical projects within the metal and punk scene. He has fronted
Hide,
The Crown,
Disfear,
Skitsystem and the
grindcore supergroup
Lock Up, in which he performed alongside
Napalm Death members
Shane Embury (bass) and
Jesse Pintado (guitar) and former
Dimmu Borgir drummer,
Nicholas Barker. He also did vocals for the Stockholm-based
Sacrilege GBG on their 1996 European tour due to the difficulty for drummer/vocalist
Daniel Svensson (
In Flames) to do both.
He is earning praise for his Gothenburg-based outfit,
The Great Deceiver, far removed from his previous work — a product of the
Gothenburg melodic death metal scene mixed with influences from artists such as
The Cure and
Joy Division.
More recently he's worked with the band
Nightrage, but shortly after their second album
Descent into Chaos was released in 2005, Lindberg left the band so that a more full-time vocalist could accompany them on tours. Lindberg occasionally provides guest vocals as seen on
Darkest Hour's "The Sadist Nation", Transistor Transistor's "Young Vampires of New Hampshire" 7", and on
Slowmotion Apocalypse's, "The Blessing" on the 2007 '
Obsidian' album.
Decibel Magazine credits the logo of Black Metal band
Darkthrone to be the work of Lindberg.
