(THIS IS THE OFFICIAL NISSES NOTTER MYSPACE PROFILE)
In the early 80s four really young schoolmates started a band,
they took the name: MUMS GONORRÉ
The first line-up was:
Hasse - Vocals
Hansi - Guitar
Nico - Bass
Tommie - Drums
The boys rehearsed at their school in the evenings, It's name is
Hammarkullsskolan (Hammerhillsschool),
It's located in the suburb Hammarkullen in Gothenburg, Sweden.
The name was soon changed to SIB 69 (short for: Spik i bajjan 69)
and the line up became:
Nico - Vocals
Hansi - Guitar
Tommie - Bass
Hasse - Drums
In late 1983 they changed the name again into NISSES NÖTTER.
At this point they had started to rehearse in the basement of a daycare center,
Usually on saturday mornings...Pre-party anyone?
(there was always some punks hanging around during the rehearsals)
"NN" did many gigs and a recorded their first tape (the one and only!):
Knäckta Nötter 84,
It was released by Egg Tapes & Records .
At this point the band had made themselves a reputation
in sweden as the "Youngest punk band ever",
They were cult already at the age of thirteen!!!
Now they were one of the 80s many important Hardcore punk bands
in Sweden.
"NN" gigged with bands like:
TA.S.K
Sötlimpa
Ab Hjärntvätt
Total Armsvett
Gbg Punx
Rattus
Avskum
Libresse
All important/legendary bands that played in the 80s.
in the end of 1984/beginning of 1985 a new tape was recorded, It's called:
"Live at replokalen"(Live at the rehearsal room)
and it is still unreleased.
You can hear a few songs from that tape here!
Only a few weeks after the recording Tommie left "NN" for some reason...
....The band needed a new bassplayer so (a good friend/Schoolmate) Paul joined in.
Paul was also and a member of: HK PUNKS
A few gigs were made with the line up:
Nico - Vocals
Hansi - Guitar
Hasse - Drums
Paul - Bass.
There was maybe made a recording too? "still searching for that tape"
In the end of 1985 "NN" changed their sound into more -77 punkrock.
There was also talk about changing the name of the band.
It all ended up in the boys going separate ways in december 1985.
"NN" regrouped again in 1993 to play live!
with all members present
(two bassplayers!Tommie and Paul)
Along with the release of the compilation Cd GBG HARDCORE 81 - 85
It was a great night! almoust
everyband on the record was playing! even Absurd
(with MÃ¥ns, who is a priest!)
"NN" influenced a lot of people back in the 80s/90s, And
"it's like time has been standing still"
because even today people crave their music worldwide
(that is one of the reasons why this site came up).
Punks from the USA, Brasil and Japan have contacted the band in search for more songs.
And there is actually some recordings that might be released on a record in the near future...
Keep your eyes and ears open, Info will be put up here....
(More info on "NN" will be put up here as time goes by,
Check back again in a while to read more)....
