Tomas Lindberg

Tomas Lindberg, from Gothenburg, Sweden, has been active as a musician and composer since the late 1980s. To date, he is most famous for his time as vocalist with Swedish melodic death metal band, At The Gates[?]. At The Gates broke up shortly after the 1995 release of the highly acclaimed Slaughter Of The Soul[?] album.

Since then, Lindberg has been involved in many other diverse musical projects within the metal scene. He has fronted Hide, The Crown, Disfear, Skitsystem, and the grindcore supergroup Lockup[?], in which he performed alongside members of Napalm Death Shane Embury (bass) and Jesse Pintado (guitar) and current-Dimmu Borgir drummer, Nick Barker.

He is earning praise for his Gothenberg based outfit, The Great Deceiver, far removed from his previous work -- a product of the Gothenberg melodic death metal scene mixed with influences from artists such as The Cure and Joy Division.
