Swedish death/thrash band formed in 1990, known for high-speed, technical and aggressive music; referenced in DeBaser reviews for albums such as Deathrace King and Crowned In Terror.

Formed around 1990 (originally as Crown of Thorns). Reviews reference vocalist Johan Lindstrand, guest vocals by Thomas Lindberg on Crowned In Terror, bassist Magnus Olsfelt (including re-recorded bass lines on the Crowned Unholy reissue), drummer Janne Saarenpää and a guitar duo referred to as Tervonen-Sunesson. Reviews note a split/hiatus around 2004.

DeBaser reviews portray The Crown as a Swedish death/thrash band delivering high-speed, technical and aggressive music. Reviewers praise performances (notably drumming and vocals) and highlight albums like Deathrace King and Crowned In Terror. Reviews also document a 2004 split and the band's position in the Gothenburg-area extreme metal scene.

For:Fans of high-speed death metal, thrash metal and aggressive, technical extreme music.

 A real punch in the ass, and if you want to hear a good album of pure death metal, go buy it!!!

 It's a real shame for their technique and the immediacy of the extreme music they proposed.

 Deathrace King which...well, without beating around the bush, really kicks ass.
