The Duskfall is a Sweedish death metal band from
Luleå, Sweden. Their style is notable as being in the vein of melodic death but also having a lot of technical ability, especially prevalent in the numerous harmonic riffs and passages in their songs.
Kai Jaakkola (lead singer) has a unique style of growling/yelling, similar to
Randy Blythe from Lamb of God in that it is very harsh, yet still understandable. The guitar and drum work go very good together, blending well together and giving the songs an almost
epic-like feel without straying too far into the power genre. If you are into death metal that is not just mindless double bass and tremolo picking with unintelligible growls/screams, you should probably check this band out.
