At The Gates - “Slaughter Of The Soul” (Live, 2008)

Damn. Not bad for old guys.

Gothenburg sound

It is not certain what band originally started the Gothenburg sound, however, it is widely accepted that Dark Tranquillity, At the Gates, and In Flames are three major pioneers of the style; however history yields that At the Gates began playing a much more contemplative and “Neoclassical” style of death metal in their early years, very comparable to the Finnish act Demilich. It wasn’t until their later albums (Slaughter of the Soul being the most commercially known) when the Gothenburg sound was recaptured.
