Den döende dandyn (album)
Den döende dandyn ("The dying dandy") is a 1986 album from Swedish pop and rock artist Magnus Uggla.
Den döende dandyn is also the name of a notable painting by Nils Dardel, which in 1984 famously had been bought by financier Fredrik Roos for what was then a record price for a Swedish painting.
The song "Joey Killer" mocks the hair metal subculture, which gained much popularity during the middle to late 1980s.
