Description
What does it mean to be a pioneer? Enhänta Bödlar may not have been the first in Sweden to be fully in tune with industrial music (or were they?). But if you were at all interested in signals from the UK and its avant-garde, truly alternative music scene (yes, Throbbing Gristle, we’re looking at you) in the Swedish 80s, you knew Enhänta Bödlar. The band, sometimes solo with the eternal engine Uddah-Buddah at the helm, sometimes as a duo with Roger Karmanik (perhaps under the stage?), sometimes in other constellations – as on the 1984 cassette album that Fanfar! has now remastered and reissued as a super limited vinyl edition. Here it is a young Conny Nimmersjö, later in bob hund, who together with Uddah-Buddah destroys a stereo in Södertälje. And at the same time the gates of hell open.
There is an energy here that can both move mountains and sink them into the abyss.
Say what you will. “Lychgate Threnody” on vinyl after 40 years. Remastered in the best way. With a cover by Daggan Stamenkovic based on the original – or rather one of the few copies that still exist. This is one of the most important cultural preservation projects Fanfar! has ever undertaken. And it’s done in the knowledge that very few people will be interested in it. That’s why the edition – more or less 80 copies – is exclusive, high quality and designed as a reverse crowdfunding. Those of us who are interested will share the cost. Hence the higher price than we usually have.
If you want this album on vinyl, you’d better get it. The edition is numbered. We sell in numerical order and you keep your place in the queue. Thank you.
