More treasure from Alex Hellid: "Leif - The Father of Stockholm Sound" 💀 The Birth of the Stockholm Sound – Kista, 1987 – a northern Stockholm suburb. I (Sassa, aka Alex) headed over to Leif "Leffe" Cuzner’s house to check out his first electric guitar and rig. There it was – a strangely shaped Quest guitar (I’ve never seen another one before or since), a 15-30 watt Marshall transistor amp, and the distortion pedal.

Leffe had been hoping for the mint-green Ibanez Tube Screamer—probably because that’s what Uffe used in Morbid—but instead, he got… this orange, toy-like piece of crap. "It sounds like s**t no matter what I do," he muttered, shaking his head. Then—grinning—"The only thing I like is when I do this…"

He cranked all the k***s to eleven and laughed. "Listen—it’s fu***ng ridiculous!"

He played. We laughed. And his sound was born. A ridiculously mad, distorted tone… whatever he did, it sounded like nothing else. History, in its most brutal making.

And now, Leffe’s guitar and pedal—the very gear that created this unique sound—can be seen at the Total Metal exhibition at in Stockholm.

Leif, you will always be a part of Entombed. We miss you deeply and remember you with love❤️

Over and out, Alex

CITY BABY....attacked by books! 📕📗📙 Cut the safety net and read CITY BABY, bassist Ross Lomas's book of painfully honest tales from thirty-plus years with G.B.H. 👶🏼🧷 "So Captain Sensible showed Jock how to tune his guitar. He explained about guitar tuners, and politely suggested we might find them helpful. Thanks to him, we learned how to play in tune. If I’m honest, we were more excited about getting to talk to him than about learning how to tune up properly. Acquiring a tuner remained just an ambition, an impossible luxury we would get around to some day when we weren’t spending all our money on chips and beer." 🍟🍺

Go get it, ! 💀⚰️🫳

Back in the Studio – After All These Years! 🤘🔥 We started working on new material at Nicke’s studio—digging into the riffs, tones, and everything in between. Even dusted off the Peavey Studio Pro 40, the same amp used on Left Hand Path, to see if it still had some magic left in it. Things are coming together, and we can’t wait to share more with you all as soon as possible. Stay tuned!

🎸 L-R: Nicke Andersson, Uffe Cederlund dialing in the sound, and Alex Hellid (partly visible in the reflection) capturing the moment.
