SVART FRAMTID - 1984 EP

Svart Framtid (Black Future) is regarded as the first one-piece band out of the Blitz-House and they were pioneers because they were the first Norwegian hardcore band that went on international tour. The Band had no bandbil so they bought instead interrail tickets and took the train around Germany from city to city and almost booked gigs along the way. Svart Framtid released only this awesome six-track EP which came out as the first release on vocalist Gunnar Nuven its newly established label Plateselskap and a live tape called "Live Blitz" which was recorded live at Blitz Oslo on 23.12.84. Gunnar Nuven was from the first era of punks in Oslo, he had among others and made his mark as a vocalist in the band Rush. The band dissolved in 1984 and Gunnar Nuven continued in bands like Kafka Process and So Much Hate. Harald Tredal continued in the band Locked Doors and Behind Bars and has also tried acting with a small role in the Norwegian film Schpaaa 1998. Nils Aune continued in the band Four Fæle guys, Kafka Process and Raga Rockers. Anders Eide continued in Behind Bars. This EP has high aggregate value and traded a few times a year for well over a thousand tag on eBay. "Scorching those decibels with an uproarious thrash barrage is Norway's Svart Framtid, jumping from chord to chord with different paces and plucks. Six exciting numbers that focus on major world wide problems, as the crude vocalist screams out in agony, like the people who feel it day after day. Speedy guitar with rapid drum splashings lead Svart Framtid into a hectic dose of creative, yet alarming piledrivers. Great active stuff, the tip of the iceburg in Norway. On X-Port Plater." - Pushead, from Puszone, January 1985

SO MUCH HATE - Lies 1993

The fifth and last album by this four piece Hardcores from Oslo, active 1986-1996, on X-Mist Records/Progress Records. So Much Hate consisted of members of Svart Framtid, Kafka Process and Bannlyst. The band was one of the hardest Norwegian hardcore bands in the 80's and 90's. They played over 400 concerts in Norway and abroad. So Much Hate was strongly linked to the Blitz House and the plates, and especially their lyrics appear to be time-sculptures from Blitz's history. So Much Hate was more uncompromising and hard-hitting than any other Norwegian band from their time and were one of the leading underground bands in Europe. They were on tour including with Ignition and played more concerts together with greats such as Fugazi, Indigesti and Kina. After a farewell tour in Europe in fall 1996, they played their last concert at Blitz on November 14, 1996. Vocalist Gunnar (vocals) moved shortly to Germany and settled there, Løvik (guitars) joined the band Captain Not Responsible, while Per (bass) and Finn (drums) joined Drunk. Løvik died in March 2007. If you like the album I recommend their third Blind Alley (listen).

V/A - Hurra For Norge #4 2008

Uncooked, wild, partly unpublished, rough and excellent material also offers the fourth outpouring from Svindel Records, whose mini-series Hurra For Norge takes us deeply into the fantastic Norwegian subculture and shows its diversity with thirty-four blasts from the period 1978-1988. The sound is variable as usual and many bands never saw the inside of a studio, several of the recordings are from live gigs and from rehearsal rooms, but in a good sound quality, I would say. Definitely interesting for all collectors and punkers who like the rare and rough, and those who like to discover new stuff. So friends, that's it for today. I slowly tune myself for the upcoming important match ⚽ against Leverkusen.

V/A - Hurra For Norge 2007

Hurra For Norge is a damn good series from Svindel Records and they compiled rare goodies from original live/demo tapes and vinyl of early norway punk, mostly in an edition of 500 copies. Overall, there are five issues released and all are outstanding and lovingly designed with all infos about the recordings/bands. I have four of them only this one not so I am very pleased that the Network Of Friends is intact. The artwork is unfortunately not there, maybe anyone send this in. Musically a punk firework with massive hits and further volumes will follow, guaranteed.

STENGTE DØRER - Sangen Om Vår Vidunderlige Verden 1988

This is the debut album, released by the German label Double A Records, by this Norwegian language hardcore/punk band from Oslo, with origins in the environment around the Blitz house Pilestredet, started in the spring of 1985. Those who were behind the band was Anders Eide (guitar), Harald Tredal (drums) & Dag Rasmussen (bass) - all had a history in Svart Framtid - and Hasse Jørgensen (vox). The songs are all decorated in the typical merciless hardcore/punk sound which is a mark of quality and here I must not long explain what's on it. Tough and loud tunes, brilliant production and each number is a blast. They manage with their energy and untamed rage to ignite a fire. And for those who do not speak the Norwegian language, like me, an English translation is attached, one more plus point. - So, the holy thunder god Thor has once again slammed mercilessly. Great band, awesome record, download obligation!!!! 

- Huge Thx to Fredrik -
