Dawn is a Swedish melodic black / death metal band formed in 1990 by guitarist Fredrik Söderberg. The outfit stands as an absolute cult force and one of the most revered, highly influential, yet underrated pillars of the 1990s Swedish extreme metal scene. The band's sonic signature is defined by an exceptional balance between relentless, high-speed blast-beat aggression and monumental, icy tremolo-picked guitar harmonies that weave a majestic, tragic atmosphere. Conceptually and lyrically, the project is strictly dedicated to themes of darkness, winter cold, anti-Christianity, misanthropy, occult mysticism, and the decay of the human spirit.
