Akutt Innleggelse from Fjellstrand started off as a noisy punk outfit in the early 80's, featuring adolescents Thomas & Bengt (aged approximately 13 or 14) and their friends Rolf and Espen (only slighty older). Their first trip to the studio, in 1983, yielded the Echoes From The Asylum EP, released on Thomas' newly-formed Straightjacket label. After replacing Espen and adding Bjørn on vocals, the band headed in a more "hardcore"-sounding direction. An April '84 session produced a nine-song demo; several tracks from this ended up on various international compilations. In 1985, the band called it quits. Thomas (aka Happy-Tom) and Bengt (aka Bingo) went on to play in Turbonegro. (Thanks to Bård) A raw, mid-tempo three-track EP from Norway. On their first vinyl release, Akutt Innleggelse displays a primitive, amateurish punk attack. It kind of slouches along without noteworthy choruses, but the lyrics are good and the guitar lead in "Superstjerne" is awkward enough to be really cool. -Jeff Bale (from Maximum Rocknroll #16, August 1984) - On numerous compilations to guest, great stuff!
