The first two are Swedish language only, the third is a nix of Swedish and English.

Seems like Sweden has some serious prog talent, most of which (massive prog fan as I am) I've never come across before. Anyone else got any fave Swedish prog bands?
Not just prog, but some of the best bands have come out of Sweden in the last 15 years or so, especially in the metal and prog categories.

Pain of Salvation, Evergrey, Flower Kings, Opeth, Dark Tranquillity, In Flames, At the Gates, Tiamat, Meshuggah and Hypocrisy to name some.

The two most interesting are probably Pain of Salvation and Tiamat each with their particular brand of prog metal.
