Entombed's debut album was Left Hand Path, a cult favourite that established the band as a popular death metal bands. The follow-up, Clandestine, was just as popular and also featured greatly improved songwriting which helped woo critics. These first two albums were unique in that they featured what was sometimes referred to as an "electric saw" guitar sound. According to the band they came up with it on their own, mixing different distortion effects together to achieve it. It appeared on their debut, "Left hand path", but was improved and refined on the follow up, "Clandestine", on which its effect is in its best form. It was never used as effectively on subsequent recordings. After the Gods of Grind tour, Entombed began changing their sound, which turned off many fans but established their mainstream and critical reputation. Wolverine Blues and Hollowman are widely considered classics of early 1990s heavy metal, but were followed by problems with various record companies. In 1999 (see 1999 in music), Entombed released Uprising, which was an anti-commercial return to the band's roots. The follow-up, though, their latest, Morning Star returned to Hollowman and Wolverine Blues style metal. They have since released 2003's album 'Inferno,' a continuation of the 'death n roll' style that has become their trademark sound. 2006 sees the release of new music from Entombed, with the 'When in Sodom' E.P. on June 6 (or 06/06/06), and the 'Serpent Saints' full length on September 18.
