Uncanny is a Death Metal band from Avesta, Sweden, that was formed in 1990.
In 1991 and 1992 they released two demos "Transportation To The Uncanny" and "Nyktalgia".
In 1993 they recorded a split 12" ep with Ancient Rites and in 1994 Unisound Records released their full-length album "Splenium For Nyktophobia" that was recorded with Dan Swanö.
Then the band split up and Fredrik Norrman joined Katatonia, Kennet joined Dellamorte and Moondark,
Mats Forsell had his other band Fulmination and Jens continued to do the vocals in Uncurbed.
Several years later in January 2008 Uncanny did a reunion gig at Daniel Ekeroth's second release party 
for his book "Swedish Death Metal" together with Treblinka and Obscurity.
The lineup was updated with Mattias Norrman (ex Katatonia, Dellamorte etc) on bass 
and Johan Jansson (Interment, Demonical etc) on guitar.
In the middle of 2011 Uncanny was offered to release an 7" ep on Dark Descent.
Two new songs were made by Fredrik Norrman that we later recorded in November in studio SoundPeaQ 
by Petri Kuusisto (ex Carnal Forge, In Thy Dreams etc).
The vinyl was released in 2012 entitled "The Path Of Flesh".
In 2016 the ep "Liturgy" was released and featured three new songs.

  1. This is a great record. Just wanted to also say thanks a lot for your blog! I've discovered a lot of really sick music. Don't mean to shamelessly promote, but I also share random music that I think should be heard over here, in case you're interested https://celestial-den.blogspot.com/
