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.

they reunite in 2016 after winning the case of entombed name.

Full of Hell
Entombed Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

At my worst I'm at my best
Wide awake but I let sanity rest
I'm full of hell
All kinds of hell

I've got a heart like a graveyard
They're dying to get in
I'm from a lot of different places
And I'm full of hell and sin
I'm offended by human nature
Was told the truth by someone who lied
There are times when not being human
Would be a source of inner pride

At my worst I'm at my best
Wide awake but I let sanity rest
In my heart and deep within
I've got it's fire under my skin
I'm full of hell
All kinds of hell

I'm full of hell
All kinds of hell

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Entombed's song Full of Hell are a reflection of the inner turmoil and chaos that the singer is experiencing. The first stanza conveys the idea that the singer's mind is like a busy highway with countless thoughts running through it. The analogy of a peace of mind being like a brainstorm shows that the singer is struggling to find calm and serenity. The mention of sympathy for the devil and demons in their veins suggests that the singer has a darker side to them, and they are aware of it. The phrase 'organized chaos' indicates that although their thoughts may seem random and haphazard, there is some order to the madness. Finally, the line 'don't call me stupid, I'm insane' could be interpreted as a defiance against anyone who may dismiss their feelings as irrational.

In the second stanza, the singer compares their heart to a graveyard, a place where the dead are buried. This metaphor suggests that the singer has experienced a lot of loss, and their heart is filled with pain and sadness. The line 'I'm offended by human nature' conveys the idea that the singer is disillusioned by humanity and the flaws that come with being human. The next line 'was told the truth by someone who lied' could be interpreted as a reference to a person who betrayed the singer or gave them false hope. The final line 'not being human would be a source of inner pride' is a poignant statement that highlights the depth of the singer's pain.
