| V/A - Brewed In Sweden 2 (Blind Beggar Records) Listen up all streetpunk and Oi! fans in all over the world!!!! Sweden�s finest bands have once again united and released a compilation that will blow your brain out. 15 band are featured, in all of 30 tracks (19 unreleased tracks, 4 tracks can only be found on vinyl = 7 tracks can be found somewhere else), 77 minutes of what the fuck this is all about. The bands should need no introducing but here they are: Blisterhead, The Sluggers, Dim�s Rebellion, St Laura, The Clockwork Crew, Da Skywalkers, Agent Bulldogg, Scumbags, Smalltown, Down And Away, Topper, SIC, The Loiters, Radio 69 and Battlescarred. For you people who bought the first Brewed In Sweden i say to you. You won�t be dissapointed. This issue is probably even better, our scene have grown even more during the last year and here�s the price of all the work that all people in the scene have putted down. No track feels weak, not even one feels mediocre. Agent Bulldogg is singing in swedish again. Giving for me, the TRUE, Bulldogg sound. Last years upcommers Dim�s Rebellion won�t dissapoint you this year as well, they still kick ass. The Sluggers from Ume� gives the scene a real kick of aggro streetpunk. Scumbags gives you old style aggro punk. Battlescarred countinues with their old style Oi! sound. The Clockwork Crew is here with their unique sound aswell putting some more old style Oi! on this compilation. Some new acts like Topper , Down And Away and St Laura won�t dissapoint you either. As far as i know they are pretty unknown but sure know how to play punk like fuck. Tracks like "Once A Punk Always A Punk"by Topper, "Punks. Inc" by Down And Away and "9 2 5" by St Laura really wonders why i haven�t heard of these bands before. And other older streetpunk and punkrock acts like Radio 69, , Da Skywalkers, Smalltown and Sic, gives you a real chock of brilliant modern punk tunes - proving that the swedish scene is really something. The newcommers The Loiters won�t dissapoint you either with slower, singalong, punk sounds about our lifestyle. And an other new band that�s really have made a fast, but damn good career is Blisterhead and i can just sum them up with one word: Brilliant. This compilation makes me proud of being swedish, of being skinhead, of putting so much time into supporting the scene. Of everything. This is, in my eyes, truly one of the best compilations in streetpunk and Oi! history. This is THE streetpunk compilation of the year - in all of the world! And if you don�t get it then get the fuck away from our scene. Thanks thanks THANKS Pike, Blind Beggar and everyone else out there for putting up a second to the already classic Brewed In Sweden 1 and everyone else out there making this possible. We Will Never Die! Music: 5/5 One of the strongest streetpunK/oi! compilations ever to hit us. Get it! Lyrics: 5/5 True lyrics, no bullshit, almost no cliques disturbing me. Get it! Overall: 5/5 What the fuck are you waiting for? Buy it! |
