 Majestica is a Symphonic Power Metal band based in Boden, Sweden, fronted by tenor vocalist and guitarist Tommy Johansson.Originally known as ReinXeed (pronounced like "rain exceed"), the group began as a solo project by Johansson that over subsequent albums expanded into a musical trio. They released six albums from 2008 to 2013 but remained relatively obscure.In 2005, though, Johansson was playing the latest new releases disc from Sweden Rock Magazine and came across a song called "Primo Victoria" from another Swedish group, Sabaton. He got to know the band members, and in 2012, following most of the musicians leaving the group, Tommy was asked to join the band as a guitarist. At the time, he declined because ReinXeed seemed to be taking off, but following a slow period after the release of A New World in 2013, Tommy did join them in 2017, replacing Thobbe Englund.In 2019, the band, now reduced in scope to a side project due to Johansson's full-time commitment to Sabaton, was renamed Majestica and signed to Nuclear Blast Records. They have released two albums to date.In 2024, Tommy announced he was leaving Sabaton to refocus his attention on Majestica full-time.

 Vocal Dissonance

comment
 Vocal Dissonance: Tommy's speaking voice is fairly deep and gruff with a relatively thick Swedish accent. As a singer he's an operatic baritone capable of some pretty impressive high notes.

 Power Metal: Fantasy-focused lyrics, fast beats and guitars, higher-pitched clean male vocals, the works.

 Singing Voice Dissonance

comment
 Singing Voice Dissonance: Tommy's speaking voice is pretty deep, but he usually sings in a tenor range, although he can go as low as a baritone.

 Symphonic Metal: The band uses a lot of orchestral music sampling in their backing tracks, and Tommy's singing voice tends to have a fairly operatic quality to it.
