Avesta, Sweden (2004 – present)

Scar Symmetry is a band from Avesta, Sweden formed in 2004. In addition to the typical aesthetics (numerous melodies and harmonies in the guitars, growling vocals, etc.), they incorporate synthesised sounds into their music. Their lyrics are themed towards astronomy, philosophy, mysticism and inner struggles.

The band’s third album “Holographic Universe” was released on June 20, 2008. Following the release, Scar Symmetry did not embark on tours and released a statement 11 September 2008, announcing that they had parted ways with vocalist Christian Älvestam, due to touring conflicts and creative differences. On 6 October, they announced the replacements for Christian Älvestam: they will continue with two singers, Roberth Karlsson (growls) and Lars Palmqvist (clean vocals).

Members and other projects:
* Roberth Karlsson - Lead Vocals (growls) (Facebreaker, Aktiv Dödshjälp and Tormented)
* Lars Palmqvist - Lead Vocals (clean vocals) (Last Temptation)
* Henrik Ohlsson - Drums (Altered Aeon, Mutant (Swe), Theory In Practice, ex-Diabolical (Swe), ex-Thrawn)
* Jonas Kjellgren - Guitars (Pexilated, Centinex, World Below, ex-Carnal Forge, ex-Dellamorte, ex-Sickenside, guest for Incapacity)
* Per Nilsson - Guitars, backing vocals (Kaipa, Altered Aeon, ex-World Below, ex-Thrawn)
* Kenneth Seil - Bass (Soul Royale)

    dudes, taste differs, at least she likes some awesome bands like Scar Symmetry, Hypocrisy, Insomnium and Amorphis.Though it really might be the most radiofriendly library at lastfm. But as long as she enjoys the music and don't want to try to belong to the mainstream everything should be fine ... Kthx, bye...

    Not shitty, just not really diverse. It's got Amorphis and Insomnium... both are epic and recommended to any Scar Symmetry fan.

    @oliver_kane You might approve one of the following ones! Check out those: Sybreed - "Orbital", Solution.45 - "Gravitational Lensing", Blinded Colony - "My Halo", Code For Silence - "Fields Of No More" & "Giant Man", Insomnium - "Where The Last Wave Broke", Amorphis - "From the Heaven of My Heart", In Vain - "Captivating Solitude", Barren Earth - every song they've ever done, but primarily "World in Haze" and "As It Is Written", The Chronicles of Israfel - "Starborn Part I - Empire of Light", Mygrain - "Plastic" and "Darkbound" and very similiar to HU: Paul Wardingham - "Cyber Warfare". All of those are amazing songs and my favorites. Also recommended: Disarmonia Mundi, Universum, Crematory, Axenstar & the new Tracedawn!
