Trivia
- Snäckmark said that he had not watched a single episode of Idol previously and thinks that the whole TV-show is against his principle as a metalhead. The reason that Snäckmark still applied for Idol was because he had made a bet with his friends concerning it and lost.
- Due to his choice of clothing (a kilt) during the 1st round final (29 April), Snäckmark was nicknamed "Braveheart" by jury member Peter Swartling.
- He is currently the singer of the heavy metal band Aktaion, and plays bass for the rock band Honeyburst.
