TUNGSTEN – Tundra (2020)
Scandinavian metal is a phenomenon in its own rights, with a vast number of super good bands across all possible sub-genres of best quality heavy metal. Amongst them, Swedish quarter TUNGSTEN stands out with their specific style. Truth be told, it is hard to put this band in a box, which is what makes pure, raw talents so intriguing to follow.
Founded by renowned drummer Anders Johansson with his musician sons joining him – including family-related Jens Johannson who drops some of his keyboard magic – Tungsten put their own stamp on the genre with “Tundra“; at places traditional melodic metal, at others progressive / symphonic, at others adding electronics to the mix.
