The word for Monday comes today from Distortion Records with this superb compilation by E.A.T.E.R. (Ernst And The Edsholm Rebels). Originally formed 1982 in Grums, they released four EPs and the legendary split tape together with Incharge. Eighteen decent hardcore smasher from the Eighties (including the EP, the split tape & the Really Fast compi goodies). In the mid 80's Ernst & the Rebels dissolved after tremendous turbulence but reunited 1985 with new members, Snake (bass) and Jerker (drums). Some gigs were made with this setting. In 1986, the band was reunited once again with Pelle back on the drums, when they, among other things, did a European Tour and in 1989 they split up finally. - They reunited in spring 2010 again with new members and played at Punk Illegal, their first gig in twenty-four years. During the summer more gigs followed and in September they recorded their second EP If Nothing's Right...Go Left! with five newly written songs, released in 500 copies with a deluxe folding cover and splatter-colored vinyl. In October came this little fucker on vinyl in a limited edition of 300 copies in transparent vinyl, 700 in black. More touring through the States (2011) & Japan (2013). A fourth 7Inch Projectiles For The People came in 2015 with five more songs on Ernst Records. In January 2017 EATER decides to close down all operations after two years of inactivity. And now.... enjoy loud, shrill, upbeat melodies.
