Lars Göran Petrov, born 17 February 1972, better known simply as LG Petrov, is a Swedish singer. He is best known for his work with the band Entombed. In 1991 he was forced to quit Entombed, due to personal problems. He then did the vocals for Comecon's debut album Megatrends in Brutality. In 1992, he returned to Entombed and has been with the band ever since. He also played drums in Morbid with Per Yngve "Dead" Ohlin in its original line up. Lars Göran also works for a moving company in Stockholm, Sweden.[1]
Although mostly known for his brutal and aggressive death metal delivery, he has on occasion also sung in a controlled clean baritone, as can be heard in Entombed originals such as "Bitter Loss" (although briefly), and covers such as Stillborn's "Albino Flogged In Black" as well as the cover of Lee Hazlewood & Nancy Sinatra's "Some Velvet Morning".
In 2008, he did guest vocals for the track "Guardians of Asgaard" on Amon Amarth's album Twilight of the Thunder God.[2]
