A new album with Sparzanza is always worth the wait! A band that, when they play at their best, is in my ears one of the absolute best metal bands in Sweden! With this album, they kind of startled us with the title “Announcing The Read More …

Strange Peps Music – Part 2 – The Sinners
For me, The Sinners is a kind of the beginning of the Hives, and the band that gave me the title: “Ah, it’s that Peps kind of music…“! The first time I heard the band was on national radio in 1990 with the single “Love You More Than This“, Read More …
Nale – new Swedish music
Say hi to Nale, a fresch bit of air. This is a relative new (for me at least) Stockholm-based band that in my opinion mixes a bit of Motörhead with Danko Jones. And maybe a touch of rockabilly. It’s hard, it’s melodic and it’s impossible Read More …
Strange Peps Music – Part 1 – Sator
Well, this is maybe not that strange, but maybe an easy way into my journey… I think that we’ll start in the late 80s, with Sator from Borlänge, a middle-sized town in the lower part of middle Sweden. In my opinion, there’s never been a Read More …

It’s been a long cold winter for me right now! Most metal-shit coming out right now, well it doesnt get me in the right place. For the moment there are very few “high-five-moments”. Most metal isn’t for me (maybe I’m getting old…) But thankfully the Read More …

Female fronted bands
Rediscovered two bands today. Sad to say that both bands don’t exists today. Both bands fronted by heavy metal women. Would really like to see more of that. We need more women in heavy metal. First band on my list is Crucified Barbara. A band Read More …

Yesterday, the greatest voice of rock, no – THE rock n’ roll hero of Sweden turned 60! I’m talking about the one and only Joakim Thåström. The myth, the legend that started the greatest punk-rock band in Sweden (Ebba Grön), and the best rock-band in the Read More …
