My Dear Addiction

My Dear Addiction is a Swedish melodic metalcore outfit that emerged from the ashes of the band Blind in 2010. Based in Älmhult, the band epitomizes the 'modern metal' movement that swept through Europe in the early 21st century, characterized by a fusion of melodic death metal's harmonic sensibilities and metalcore's rhythmic intensity.

Their sound identity is defined by the interplay between Kim Lindstén’s versatile vocal range and the dual-guitar architecture of Christoffer Holm and Ludwig Blaesild. Throughout their career, they have maintained a reputation for high-intensity live performances, notably touring with genre peers like Dead By April and dEmotional. Critically, they are viewed as torchbearers for the Swedish metal tradition, successfully navigating the transition from underground unsigned finalists to established label artists. Their discography, particularly 'Follow' and 'Kill the Silence', showcases an evolution toward more complex arrangements and higher production values, cementing their place in the contemporary European metal scene.
