Surprised no one's voted for Mikael Akerfeldt yet, he's long been my "number 1" Swede in the prog world... whatever that means.

On a side note, I do like all Swedes in prog and while that list looks fabulous, why did you leave out Nicklas Barker of Anekdoten??? He even had his birthday yesterday! He's way up there on my list.

Also Dan Swanö is worth mentioning. He's got a diverse discography and helped a ton of bands as a producer.

Morte Macabre

For Morte Macabre alone, I'd vote for Fiske.


Björn J:Son Lindh is another great Swede.

Yes I like most of the others as well, but Morte Macabre is the reason I felt strongly about mentioning him.

I've like most everything Jonas Reingold has done. I pick him, and he plays with everybody!
