Magnus Sahlgren
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Magnus Sahlgren (b. January 1, 1973) is a Swedish musician. He is the lead guitarist of the metal band Lake of Tears. He also played with Dismember (1998 - 2003) and with Tiamat during the recording of the acclaimed Wildhoney album (1994) though his name is most often associated with Lake of Tears. He helped the band achieve technical proficiency by helping with the songwriting (especially the solos) since he was only a guest artist (starting with 1999). In 2004 he was accepted as a full time member and since then his influences have been even more visible, notably on the album Moons and Mushrooms on which he performs solos on every track. Outside Lake of Tears he is a researcher at the Swedish Institute of Computer Science.
