Norway Punk Rock

About Me


Hello, hello! Semi-political, climate friendly, nowhere near religious and alotof nonsense with a message every now and then, just like any other world saving bands.
This is a four-piece punk rock institution straight out of eastern Norway (Hurum/Oslo),with a billboard proclaiming the value of global warming as an increasingly high marketprice. We're all shareholders of the ozon-layer, and we want you to work just a littleharder to get it back in shape. And not to risk that gas masks and clear water willbecome the new oil.
The tunes are slightly fast, melodic, there's no way to avoid mentioning that theyenjoy music from artists such as Rancid, J.Cash, Strike Anywhere, The Clash, StrungOut, Tom Waits and numerous other fantastic songwriters and composers.
Offpist released the debut-album "DeahRace Circus" in December 06, as a follow-up to2004's acclaimed Ep "Self-titled". A new album is taking shape, and a few tracks willsurely be posted on MySpace for free streaming.
We travel wherever we can to export a power-chord formula, with all the energy we cangive, with the hope that we can contribute a little more to keep the air fresh. We'renot ready for the mask-age just yet.
