Clandestine is an album by Scandinavian death metal band Entombed, released in 1991. It helped establish a distinctively Swedish sound in the death metal genre, while being more accessible than its predecessor, the atonal debut Left Hand Path. Largely written by drummer Nicke Andersson, the album's slowed-down speed metal rhythms have remained perhaps its most notable hallmark.
