Comecon was a Swedish death metal project from Stockholm. Formed in 1989 by Pelle Ström and Rasmus Ekman (also active in alternative/progressive metal band Omnitron at the time) the band is notable for the use of a drum machine and for featuring a different session singer on each album, both relatively unusual practices in the genre. Though each album credits a drummer, they are not real people. The two constant members handled all instruments and music, while enlisting the vocal talents of: Lars Göran Petrov (Entombed, Nihilist, Morbid), Martin van Drunen (Pestilence, Asphyx, Hail of Bullets) and Marc Grewe (Morgoth). All three albums were produced by Tomas Skogsberg at Sunlight Studios, renowed for the classic Swedish death metal sound. Comecon were working on a fourth album when record label Century Media lost interest, leading to the group disbanding in 1995. « hide |
