Kitchen punks Unite!

About Me


Folkzine is a web/fanzine from Sweden, by me Andreas, inspired by mother nature and alternative-music. Here you'll find, reviews and interviews of not just punk, but also alternative, rock/metal and folk-music. Different articles about both large and small things, poetry, thoughts about life, and of course loads of Vegan recipes. I've also got an ongoing list of current events, mainly centered around the lower half of Sweden and Denmark, to some extent (but I'm hoping to expand).

So, if you have a new demo/record (or old) and you'd like a review of it, send me a copy and I'll throw a review up. If you have an article, some poetry or art, or even a tasty recipe send me a mail or even a regular letter (they are more fun), I'd love to bring it in the zine.

I'D BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO HELP YOUR BAND/LABEL SPREADING YOUR MUSIC!I'm also involved in HBG HC (Helsingborg Hardcore), we set up gigs here in Helsingborg. So if your band is on tour and need help, or if you just want a gig. contact me.

Concerning THAT wolf article

It has gone way out of proportions, all because I didn't wish to get caught up in a legal rights feud with lawyers in something I can't know which is right or wrong. And all of the sudden the man wh...
