* MohsScaleOfRockAndMetalHardness: Mostly a hard 9/low 10 early on, but complicated increasingly on later albums due to the ProgressiveRock influences, occasional quiet passages and EpicRocking. ''Crimson'' in particular is VERY hard to measure for all these reasons.

* ConceptAlbum: Crimson and Crimson II, [[CaptainObvious obviously.]]

Edge of Sanity was a Swedish death metal band fronted by musical genius Dan Swanö, who is renowned among the metal underground for all the numerous musical projects he has fronted and also for his work as a producer. The band is commonly regarded alongside {{Opeth}} as being the first to combine extreme metal styles like [[DeathMetal Death]] and BlackMetal with genuine ProgressiveRock, which eventually culminated in the release of the album Crimson, a single forty-minute conceptual song dealing with a post-apocalyptic future in which mankind has lost the ability to breed.

* IAmTheBand: Dan Swanö on ''Crimson II''. Apart from a couple of guest spots, he performed every single instrument and all the vocals. Justified as the band had broken up by that point.

* EpicRocking: Crimson as well as it's sequel are both 40 MINUTES long and take up the entire album.
