Grisen skriker was the headlining act at the first punk gig I went to in spring 1979. I loved them and I played this their first record to death.
The TV Eye // Drummer and I once dressed up and played on the streets of Linkoping equiped with two acoustic guitars and Sextiofem was in our set. I still remember this old lady that asked us over and over to play Sextiofem(65 a song about being that old and have nothing to live for). It was great but somewhat sad since I think the lyric reflected exactly how she felt.

Damn, I love this EP!! And even better- it’s Swedish! Funny story about holding a concert for that old lady. But what happened on their other EP? It’s a letdown compared to this one. I wonder how the handful of unreleased tracks sound on the Grisen Skriker reissue CD.
this record is so fucking awesome. i downloaded it and played it 100’s of times. keeps sticking in my head. so simple yet so melodic…aarghh
would love to hear that Mogligsvamp song too…
Ahhh here we have something for an upcoming repost then :).
Woaah!
Does this bring back memories..!
Without a doubt one of the best, funniest and anarchistic punkgroups of the early Swedish punk years. Awesome live ! Punx 4 real, no posers!!
Love’um still!
The best Swedish punk, Grisen skriker…this songs kick my ass…very great sound, more than interesting, really…
Awesome! Finally a song that I knew “back in the day.” “Ett tusen punks” was on the ROIR “World Class Punk” tape comp that I bought 23 years ago. A lot of great stuff one there & this is a great song, too.
THIS IS A GREAT RECORD ANY ONE WHAT INFO ABOUT THE ONE WITHA COVER OF A GUY WEARING A SUIT? IT IS SELF TITLED TOO, IT IS COOLER THAN THIS?
