Wolverine
Wolverine (somewhat oddly named for the Marvel comics character)
formed in 1995 by the two Zell brothers Stefan and Mikael.
Their musical progression has been steady from the onset --
their early days were spent as a death metal band, and
their debut EP,
A Fervent Dream, still displayed many of
those early tendencies, though with an eye towards progession.
By the time of
The Window Purpose in 2001, they had shifted
from a death band with progressive tendencies to a progressive
band with death tendencies (the latter mostly being drummer
Marcus Losbjer's growls, sung in tandem with Stefan Zell's
clean vocals to good effect).
Finally, in 2003, came
Cold Light Of Monday, and the
transformation was complete.
Now completely a emotive, introspective, somewhat quiet
progressive metal
band,
Cold Light (a concept album no less)
shows a even more mature, refined, and
diverse band at work.
Judged purely on a traditional metal basis, the album isn't
as heavy as even other prog metal bands, but it more than
makes up for this in terms of emotion and tranquil style.
Wolverine has come a long way in a relatively short time,
and now are poised to rank among progressive metal's elite
bands.
