Black Heaven

Black Heaven formed in Stockholm around guitarist Gustav Nyström, with drummer Henrik Olsson and bassist Mikael Andersson. Their debut album 'The Smell of Suicide' came out in 2009, and its title track became something of an anthem for certain listeners. The band's sound was raw and tended toward darker themes, which drew both fans and criticism.

Songs like 'Regentanz' and 'Kill The Pain' show their style, melodic but heavy, with lyrics that often dealt with difficult subjects. Their live shows were known for being intense and emotional, though the specifics of their stage presence are harder to pin down from the available material.

The details about specific controversies or later career moves are thin, but the music itself, tracks like 'Flusseslauf' and 'Tireless,' suggests a band that stuck to its particular lane of Scandinavian rock.
