Dark Tranquillity
Dark Tranquillity is one of the Gothenburg Three — alongside At the Gates and In Flames — that defined the melodic death metal genre in the early 1990s. Their extensive discography, from Skydancer through decades of evolution, has shaped the sound of an entire subgenre while the band has continually refined and expanded their approach to melodic extremity.
