Skurkarna - Crimewave Escapade [LP]

2012 release from the Swedish 'Crime Rock' outfit. A Crimewave Escapade features 12 twangy and distorted tales about what is really happening in the dark and shady streets of Gothenburg City. The perfect album to listen to when driving late at night, with someone screaming in the back of your trunk. Imagine Link Wray robbing a bank while hallucinating on mescaline. That is probably the closest you will ever come to describe Skurkarna. The band is an all instrumental "Crime-Rock" outfit from parts unknown. Some call them criminally insane. Others describe them as a much needed remedy for the dull and static social rules of a government controlled society.
