Bärsärkarna - Ode to Ian CD (1994)

RAC from Sweden

Tracklist:
01. Ode to Ian
02. Land of ice (Skrewdriver cover)
03. Rape and plunder

Released by Ragnarock Records in 1994.

A far right band upload so know this before you download. Not for everyone but hides one hell of a song in the end. Rape and plunder is just as PC as it might sound and if your ever setting out on a viking crusade i guess this is the song to get psyched to.

A compilation of all their unreleased songs and compilation songs that i uploaded on Down Underground back when i still worked with them.

Most of the songs where given by the members themselfs and are demo-recordings with no release behind them. Also added the mastered songs by Longshot Records and two coveres that The Veros made. The band also released an EP in 2002 but that one will be uploaded on a different occation.

Anyone who knows me know i love to pester people with this band and some poor US bands that wanted nothing more than to give me a demo to promote their band ended up with being forced to listening to this band over and over again. A friend from my old workplace even banned this record from his computer since i always used to put it on after a couple of beers. So yeah i sort of like this group and never understood why people never shared my passion for them.

Sound? Think Counterattack mixed with early Skrewdriver and a ton of handclapps.

Legendary band from Gävle, Sweden that some claim was the first Swedish Oi! band with the charismatic Zluggo on vocals. One of Swedens most hated band for many reasons and even got a digital virus named after themselfs (haha). Most lefty punks never liked them for their clear nationalistic and anti-zionist messages in their songs and most on the extreme right hated them for their clear anti-racist messages.... the rest of us hated them because most of the time they simply sucked at playing music haha. This record was recorded with only a month of musical experience in their trunk and it is plain to hear, but hey it's punk so what did you expect. Me personally have always prefered their more Oi! oriented second LP called "Våldtäkt i vinyl" (will upload some other day).
Those who need more should check the band out since they re-united in 2006 and still do shows.

Tysk höst at a show some weeks ago

Lost in translation #007: Asta Kask - Välkommen hem

A personal favourite of mine in 80's Swedish punk and something as unusual as a Swedish song about Vietnam veterans.

He read about it on the banners, he listened to his fathers nagging
"My son you know your duty, go to Vietnam for your land!"
Through recruitment he joined the rank,s even though his convictions swayed
With the rifle proud in his hand, he went into war for his land

But his choice was far from easy, it never felt quite right
He cried every single night, he cried for every life he had taken
But when he saw Uncle Sam, drop his leathal napalm
His emotions they ran cold, and pain flooded into his bones

From USA to Vietnam, Welcome home!!
From USA to Vietnam, Welcome home!!
From USA to Vietnam, Welcome home!!
From USA to Vietnam, Welcome home!!

In the backalleys of US ghettos, our hero can now be seen
Alone on his heroic crusade, alone in the world of drugs
Forgotten by the same nation, he spilled blood for in Vietnam
Because heros of his kind, are comfortable to forgett

From USA to Vietnam, Welcome home!!
From USA to Vietnam, Welcome home!!
From USA to Vietnam, Welcome home!!
From USA to Vietnam, Welcome home!!

He still has one in the chamber, left for one last killing
One last life for Uncle Sam, he took his own life for his land

From USA to Vietnam, Welcome home!!
From USA to Vietnam, Welcome home!!
From USA to Vietnam, Welcome home!!
From USA to Vietnam, Welcome home!!

Asta Kask's first LP. The songs in the upload is from the CD-reissue from the 90's basicly because i cant find this original record anywhere. The lyrics and the length of the songs should be the same though so see it as a better quality upload of the LP.
