![Much of the origin and popularity of melodic death metal can be attributed to the bands At the Gates, In Flames, and Dark Tranquillity, whose mid 1990s music releases (namely Slaughter of the Soul, The Jester Race, and The Gallery, respectively) are widely considered to have defined the genre and laid the foundation for the Gothenburg metal scene.[2] Many of the band members from these acts shared a public transportation route through the city. Dark Tranquillity vocalist Mikael Stanne recalled the scene's origins: "The part of Gothenburg we’re all from is really tiny. There is basically one bus route that leads into the city. [...] I was at the first stop on the route, and that was where Tomas Lindberg from At The Gates lived as well. Then it would be [Dark Tranquillity guitarist] Niklas Sundin and Anders Fridén from In Flames. Then we’d meet up with the Björler twins and Anders and Peter Iwers – all on the same bus into the city. Then we’d sit in the park with a tape recorder and tons of beer, and that was it! The community and the friendships started there."[8]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:a6v6jg7hyuzjk3byzybclwm3/bafkreib4y4tudrpu3oyp6bb53zba3fntmxmzonoqe4v2jt3znbph3n4grq)
