death metal
The Lurking Fear formed in Gothenburg, Sweden in 2016 as a death metal collective drawing on the old-school Swedish tradition, assembled from members of At the Gates, The Haunted, God Macabre, Skitsystem, and Disfear. The lineup centered on vocalist Tomas Lindberg, drummer Adrian Erlandsson, and guitarist Jonas Stålhammer, giving the project an immediate pedigree. Their debut Out of the Voiceless Grave (2017) and the Lovecraft-inspired Death, Madness, Horror, Decay (2021) were both released on Century Media to strong critical reception. The band disbanded in 2025 following Lindberg's death.
