UNTER DEN LINDEN - Motstånd I Läder EP 1983

Now to a Swedish combo (and very underrated in my opinion) from Karlshamn which were formed in 1980 and consisted of Björn, Jochen, Leif, Ulf. Their first gig was October 22, 1980 and they released two singles and two albums on Amalthea in the 80s. They collaborated with the band Att Som and recorded together the debut Unter Den Linden/Att Som slab and the band members of the two bands played on each other songs. From the band name one would think that it could be cozy and poppy music, but it's far from it. The A-side is a solid three minute stomper which infect you instantly. But with the flip they kick the shit out of your ass with two fantastic fast punk smasher (spontaneously I can't find another Swedish combo in comparison that played such killer riffs)... Hell Yeah! Besser geht's nicht!  Also represented on some compilations. The band split up in 1987, but you should definitely take a closer look at.
