Vocals:
Johan Lindstrand (1998-2001, 2002-2004) (Impious, One Man Army and the Undead Quartet, Incapacity)
Tomas "Tompa" Lindberg (2001-2002) (At the Gates, Grotesque (Swe), Infestation (Swe), Liers in Wait, Lock Up, Nightrage, Ben-Hur, Conquest, Disfear, Hide, Skitsystem, The Great Deceiver, World Without End) | | Additional notes | Their original moniker (until 1998) was Crown of Thorns (Swe) for the band's first two albums, which had to be changed due to the US band Crown of Thorns threatening legal action.
Tomas Lindberg perfromed guest vocals on one song on "Deathrace King" before replacing Johan Lindstrand for "Crowned in Terror." Lindstrand rejoined The Crown after this and the album was re-recorded as "Crowned Unholy."
The band split up in 2004. Lindstrand went on to form One Man Army and the Undead Quartet. Marko went on to form a solo band called Angel Blake, named after the Danzig song.
In 2008 the entire line-up other than Lindstrand formed a new band alongside Andreas Bergh of Swordmaster called Dobermann. Jonas Stålhammar later replaced Bergh, and in December 2009 they changed the name of the project to The Crown. | | Buy their stuff | Buy from The End Records
