Daniel Svensson (born on November 20, 1977 in Gothenburg, Sweden) is the current drummer and youngest member of the Swedish band In Flames, and drummer / vocalist for the band Sacrilege GBG. He was also in Diabolique before he joined In Flames in 1998 to fill the position created when Björn Gelotte moved from drums to guitars. In Flames' first album with him as drummer along with Peter Iwers was Colony, and it was released the following year. He rejoined Sacrilege GBG in 2006. Daniel is a good example of a drummer often using the so called Moeller Method. ________________________________________ When I was around 14 years old my younger brother started to take drum lessons. He was very serious about it so our parents bought him a drumkit so he could pratice at home. Now, with a drumkit in our livingroom, I wanted to try playing aswell and found out that playing drums was real fun. I never took any lessons but played along to some of my death-metalalbums, and learned how to play that way. Later I formed my first band, Sacrilege, with a couple of friends and recorded two demos in 1994. Eventually we got signed by a small label (Black Sun Records) from Gothenburg, Sweden on which we released two albums in 1995 and 1996. We were very influenced by the Gothenburg scene at that time and listened a lot to At the Gates and In Flames among other bands. So when I got asked to join In Flames as a permanent member in 1998 I was totally stunned. Since then I have participated on 6 studio albums, 3 EP:s, 1 livealbum, 1 Live DVD and played far more than 1000 shows with In Flames. - Daniel Svensson ________________________________________ Equipment: Drums – Tama Starclassic Maple/Bubinga, Piano White [1] 12"×9" Maple Tom 13"×10" Maple Tom 16"×16" Maple Floor Tom 18"×16" Maple Floor Tom 22"×16" Bubinga Bass Drum (×2) 14"×5.5" Bubinga Snare Drum Cymbals - Meinl MB20 14" Heavy Soundwave Hi-Hat 16" Heavy Crash 18" Heavy Crash (×2) 18" Rock China 22" Heavy Bell Ride 12“ Rock Splash 10“ Rock Splash 6, 8“ Classics Bell Effect Cymbal Drum Heads - Evans Toms - Clear EC2 Bass - Clear EQ3 Snare - G1 Coated Hardware - Tama IronCobra Power-Glide double pedal IronCobra Lever-Glide hi-hat stand Power Tower Rack System 1st Chair Ergo-Rider Drum Throne Other Pro-Mark Millenium II 5A Daniel Svensson signature sticks
