Though Entombed began their career as an early pioneer of Scandinavian death metal, by the early 1990s their sound had broadened to include groove metal, alternative metal and hard rock.
Entombed's debut album was Left Hand Path, a cult favorite that established the band as a popular death metal band. The follow-up, Clandestine, was just as popular. These first two albums were unique in that they featured what was sometimes referred to as a "chainsaw" guitar sound which became a staple of Swedish death metal worldwide. It was created using the Boss Heavy Metal distortion pedal and a Peavey amplifier. This iconic guitar tone spawned the niche sub-genre referred to as 'entombedcore' which consists of just hardcore bands using the infamous chainsaw tone as part of their sound.
After the Gods of Grind tour, Entombed began changing their sound into a mix of groove metal, hard rock and death metal frequently called death n roll. Although this may have turned off many fans, it established their mainstream and critical reputation. Wolverine Blues and Hollowman are widely considered classics of early 1990s death metal, but were followed by problems with various record companies.
In 1999, Entombed released Uprising, which was an anti-commercial return to the band's roots. The follow-up, Morning Star returned to Hollowman and Wolverine Blues style metal. They have since released 2003's album Inferno, a continuation of the 'death n roll' style that has become their trademark sound.
2006 saw the release of new music from Entombed, with the When in Sodom EP on June 6 (or 06/06/06), and the full length album Serpent Saints - The Ten Amendments was released on July 9th, 2007. This album is the group's first release with drummer Olle Dahlstedt (of Alpha Safari and ex-Misery Loves Co.), who replaced long-time drummer Peter Stjärnvind in 2006.

DCLXVI - To Ride, Shoot Straight and Speak the Truth
Entombed Lyrics
Boats Went for the money No way to please them all Have had…
Damn Deal Done He's a man Gonna do what the can to make this…
DCLXVI [Instrumental]…
Just As Sad God's an insect with a six-legged disbelief Burning bridges …
Lights Out Midnight, the subway train is here There's a body on…
Like This With the Devil There ain't no god that will save you from regret It's…
Parasight When all you have's a hammer All you see is nails When…
Put Me Out You break my bones Crush my head with stones You dance on…
Somewhat Peculiar I don't know where it came from Just what it meant It's…
They Sudden low of an all time high Willing to believe what…
Uffe's Horrorshow A private horror show is playing in my head Movie after…
Wound I bare my scars with pride My bone are cold right…
Wreckage Say what? Well come again Do you think you can change…
