I realize Dissection probably isn't too well known in these parts. Anyway, I'm a huge fan of the band and was looking forward to seeing them this fall in NYC.

Here's the blabbermouth article:

DISSECTION frontman Jon Nödtveidt has committed suicide, informed sources have told BLABBERMOUTH.NET. Nödtveidt's death was confirmed by the Swedish distributor Sound Pollution, whose staff has worked with DISSECTION throughout the band's career. A posting on the Sound Pollution web site, www.soundpollution.se, reads: "RIP Jon Nödtveidt 1975-2006. Condolences from Sound Pollution & Black Lodge."

Nödtveidt formed DISSECTION in 1989 and released two full-length albums with the group — "The Somberlain" (1993) and "Storm of the Light's Bane" (1995) — before he was convicted in Sweden of felony murder of 37-year-old homosexual Algerian Josef Ben Maddour in 1997. He was released from prison in 2004, at which point he restarted DISSECTION.

DISSECTION announced in May that it would split up imediately following its final performances in support of its recently released CD, "Reinkaos". The band was subsequently forced to cancel its two previously announced appearances in North America (Sept. 1 at the House of Blues in West Hollywood, CA and Sept. 6 at B.B. King Blues Club in New York City) after Nödtveidt was denied legal entry into the United States as a result of his conviction.

DISSECTION's most recent album, "Reinkaos", was released in May on The End Records.

That's one of those bands whose logo is so cryptic and can't even tell what the hell it is.

hmm... a murderer AND a no-talent. more oxygen for the rest of us.

I wouldn't say no talent...

really? I listened to the clip... did you?

nice bump, good god

If you don't like that type of music, why listen?

So, why was this bumped after three years?

Must've been some of that excess oxygen finally made its way to MA.

The song sounded fine to me, although I don't really know what they're singing about.

Interesting bump, though.

found this thread looking for something else....hence the bump.

The 3:00 - breakdown into solo and into the killer riff is why I posted the song. Thought I'd share for those who weren't familiar. Some amazing hooks (and monster fills)

Because he's still dead?

Reinkaos is a masterpiece.

"Boy, that's great stuff..."
