not better than Motorhead, no way, not by a long shot.
I didn't realize it was a competition, but if you ask me, Dan shits all over Lemmy and Motorhead.

You'll also notice that every album reviewed (that got scores) but one got a better score than Iron Fist, so that should be the most telling thing of all.

I am a huge Swano fan too. Anything that has his name attached to it comes out great (although I was not that taken by Diabolical Masquerade). Speaking of Infernal. I love that album. You could feel the album splitting EoS in half, Swano going on his own tangent, and the rest of the team staying old school. I can't count how many times I have been switching allegiances one day liking Dan's songs, another day loving good ol' Swedish death. In the end Dan wins. Hands down.
Diabolical Masquerade was more of a Blakkheim project, Dan was involved, but not very much, some vocals, drums, keyboards, etc. I only have Death's Design and I think the album is awesome.
Have you heard Unicorn and Odyssey?
Good list of Swano stuff, but you forget him doing vocals on Theli from Therion.......
