Additional notes
One of the best-respected musicians in metal music. A prolific songwriter, highly-regarded producer, and a seminal figure in progressive death metal, if not progressive metal altogether.
Younger brother of Dag Swanö, who (has) worked with him on many projects, most notably Nightingale, Pan.Thy.Monium and Diabolical Masquerade.
Owner of Unisound, formerly known as Gorysound Studios.
One could say that the album created under the bandname of Dan Swanö was the next Edge of Sanity album. But since Dan left the band, he recorded the album "Moontower" by himself.
Swanö described his music as "if Rush played death metal in the 70s".
Dan Swanö has also recorded a cover of The Sister of Mercy's Lucretia My Reflection under his own name as well as a cover of Black Sabbath's Country Girl together with Peter Tägtgren (Hypocrisy, Pain).
