About Me

At the moment we are writing new material.
In may 2007 we released our debut album - "Famous Smashed Songs". Daniel Bengston and BjÃ¶rn Ã–qvist from Pennebaker have produced and our dear friend, Marcus MÃ¥rtenson (www.marcusmartenson.com) provided us with a beautiful cover.
We've changed line-up and musical focus over the years. For a while were so deep down in the LOFI pool that we nearly drowned. This was when Rickard from Hell on wheels was our drummer. A horrid concert performance led to our first break up. For a few years we were apart in other projects and there were some bitterness.
In 2000 we kissed and made up, the original line up was back together.
2003 we spray-painted the cover to our first single "Wrong Side Of 75"
In 2004 we released a Split CD with Martin Bonnier on Maffioso Rosso Circulatores.
In 2005 came the some what gloomy "Fire in the night E.P." This time we hand painted the covers on a balcony.
