So, where have you heard Mattias playing guitar? I know he´s a good guitarist, but in Katatonia he is a bassist.

 

[ether]

well, Mattias plays guitar in Subdive

and I also noticed that in these questions the importace of bassists is undervalued....poor bassists they do such an important job in a band and no one cares to mention them...

See Dellamorte

 

[ether]

See Dellamorte

I was forgetting DellaMorte, thought Mattias didn't play in this band anymore...but thanks for the link, I also downloaded a couple of samples from their site and they rock! They remind me a little bit of Subdive, maybe less hard-core and more death-metal in comparison...Mattias rulez!
