Afflicted was a death metal band that formed in Sweden in the early 90's. Originally formed by Joakim Broms (vocals), Jesper Thorsson (guitar), Joacim Carlsson (guitar), Phillip Von Sebegaden (bass) and Yasil Hillborg (drums), Afflicted was an important and influential part of the Swedish death metal scene, though being overshadowed by more well known bands like Entombed and Dismember. Despite the band being of a death metal genre, their debut album, Prodigal Sun portrayed a different and more distinctive approach to death metal.
