Wolverine (band)
Wolverine is a Swedish progressive metal band, that was formed in 1995 by Stefan Zell and Marcus Losbjer. Career Early releases Wolverine started out playing death metal with melodic influences, but when they released their first EP, ''Fervent Dream'', in November 1999, the music had evolved into progressive metal.
