Firespawn is a Swedish death metal band from Stockholm, formed in 2012 by Alex Impaler of Necrophobic, Lars-Göran Petrov and Victor Brandt, both of Entombed A.D. Originally called Fireborn, the group "wanted to play faster and harder death metal than in our other bands".[1] The later addition of guitarist Fredrik Folkare of Unleashed and Necrophobic and drummer Matte Modin of Defleshed, completed the band's line-up.
On 7 August 2015, the debut 7" Lucifer Has Spoken was released. In November 2015, the band released their debut album, Shadow Realms, on Century Media.[2] The music was written by Victor Brandt and the lyrics were written by both Alex Impaler and Victor Brandt.[1]
On 28 April 2017, the band released their second studio album, entitled The Reprobate, again via Century Media. The band released its third album, Abominate in 2019 on Century Media.
On 7 March 2021, Petrov died from bile duct cancer at the age of 49.[3][4]
On 11 July 2025, the band announced they had reunited and would be continuing with Jörgen Sandström taking over as vocalist following Petrov's death.[5]
