Anyone here a fan? I think they would be a fantastic opening act for NIN, although looks like that is not ever going to happen. They are a Swedish goth/doom(?) band. Very lyrically driven especially over their last 5 albums or so. The first two albums featured Mikael from Opeth and vocals, mainly death growls. Now they have transitioned to almost exclusively clean vocals by Jonas Renske. Very worth checking out IMHO.

Last Fair Deal Gone Down or Viva Emptiness are good places to start. They have a new album coming out in October called Night is the New Day that I'm really looking forward to.

Katatonia is one of my all time favorite bands. I feel fortunate to have seen them twice at tiny clubs in the states. Glad to see they are making it over this way! I agree with the above: Last Fair Deal...or Viva Emptiness is a great place to start!
