Tunneln i ljnsets slut (Prank)
by Scott Hefflon

U.S. reissue of the spelling-challenged band’s 2004 crusty gem. Swedish, bleak, metallic punk like few can muster. Blasting and violent, with way more heads cracked than smiles. Like Discharge and such, but seeing as I’m more of an Entombed fan, I’ll liken it to them, but far more ferocious, and replacing most of the death’n’roll grooves with punk rampage, moody, haunting interludes, and spoken word passages I can’t understand, but are surely sinister and brimming with hate and misery. Also of note, the title evidently translates to “The Light at the End of the Tunnel” and has nothing to do with sluts, and the strictly black & white packaging contains no photos, lyrics, or even song titles.
