Archive material and source history
Arkentype is a melodic death metal band from Sweden that formed in 2007. The group was started by vocalist and guitarist Markus Heikkinen, who has remained the consistent presence through various lineup changes. Their early years involved some financial struggles, but they managed to put out a debut EP called 'Anguish and Despair' in 2009.
Their 2011 album 'A Dying Casket of Dreams' included the track 'Ashes and Dirt,' which became a fan favorite. They've released several albums since then, including 'Burn the World Alive' in 2014, 'Chaos and Torment' in 2016, and 'Path of No Return' in 2019. Some critics have taken issue with their lyrical content, though Heikkinen has described it as exploring human darkness rather than glorifying violence.
