Hailing from Helsingborg, Sweden, Fifty Grand Suicide is the brainchild of former Soilwork axman Ola Frenning. Connoisseurs of Scandinavian death metal will welcome this latest addition to the scene, a torchbearer to acts such as In Flames or Mnemic.
Incorporating elements of hardcore and rock ambience, their hybrid melodic yet aggressive hardcore sound are sure to live up to the expectations of both new and old metal enthusiasts.
The sextet is comprised of Ola Frenning and Henrik Blomquist (guitars), Daniel Wilhelmsson (bass), Jesper Sunnhagen (drums), and vocalists Alf Wemmenlind and Nicklas Malmquist.
All six members serve to deliver a cocktail of scorching riffs, intelligent structure and exhilarating brutality.
Their first single Steadfast is now available, to be followed by their upcoming EP, due to be released in 2012.
