They were never at all content with being normal, which may or may not have had something to do with naming an album Unorthodox, but definitely had a lot to do with their music eventually including everything from pop hooks and goth rock vocals to the celebrated prog of Crimson.
Hell, they didn’t even truly adopt the full chewy, buzzsaw “Sunlight Sound” until they used it for a very un-Sunlight album.Įdge of Sanity never fit in because the five men that usually made up Edge of Sanity – vocalist/multi-instrumentalist Dan Swanö, guitarist Andreas Axelsson, guitarist Sami Nerberg, bassist Anders Lindberg, and drummer Benny Larsson – never really wanted to fit in. Although they spent their formative years during the rise of Swedish death metal, they never released a classic regular death metal album, nor did they do the obvious thing and record at Sunlight Studios with Tomas Skogsberg.
