Swedish thrash metal band Methane have enlisted a new drummer and enter the studio to complete recordings of the bands sophomore album ‘Kill It With Fire’. After a tumultuous couple of years with the CoronaVirus epidemic and swapping tenures of drummers that only can be rivaled by Spinal Tap, Methane has found and recruited 22 year old Jonathan Fundin as full time drummer. Jonathan, who has been playing live with Methane for over a year has proven he is not only a phenomenal drummer, but a tight, technical, seasoned proformer.

Methane has had a new album written and has been waiting in the wings to find the missing cog to boost the music to a new level of aural depravity.  With influences like Dave Lombardo (Slayer/Testament) and Joey Jordison (Slipknot), Jonathan brings high energy to Methane’s heavily groove influenced thrash sound. Fundin says himself that his playing style is influenced by everything from jazz to death metal.

“After hearing the music and meeting Jimi, Tim and Markus I knew I was in for a ride! I love the challenge of playing the songs but also hanging out with the guys, they are the best really!”
