Riddarna

Riddarna is a trio originally from Gotland. The music is based on the despair and frustration and is in a pretty unique genre. To quote Göteborgs-Posten: ”Stoner. Pop. Rattling. Punk. Hard Rock. Psychedelia. Garage. Riddarna pushed all of this screaming into a blender. Drove around, poured it out on the altar of rock altar and read the intestines. The conclusion was ”Rock’n’Roll is dead”, so Riddarna turned the knobs to eleven and decided to resurrect it. Here it is: shaking, lurching and screaming in Swedish. And my god it swings! Rock music is dead! Long live Riddarna! If you are not a music puritan you are probably already dancing.” In other words, the music follows no rules and go on instinct. ”In essence, rock music at it’s best – wild, unruly, without the slightest intention to back down.”(The Magazine Kulturen)
”Those guys manage to sound heavy AND melodic, powerful and fun.” (Absolut Noise).

Riddarna are: Erik Dahlström, Patrik Jakubowski and Edward Forslund.
