Uppt Vggarna, probably one of the most obscure early 70''s Proto-Hard Rock bands to emerge from Sweden. Back in 1970, the Swedish hard rock scene had just taken its first deep breath with the band November''s riff-laden debut album, "En ny tid r hr" (A New Time is Here). Later the same year, another band started to take form, highly influenced by the aforementioned pioneers. The band was named Uppt Vggarna (a Swedish expression for "Outrageous" or "Absurd"), and in 1971, they released their first and only 7" single, "Jag hatar politik/Jag frdas". Over the years it has become
quite the collectors item, both for its historical value as well as the quality of the band''s songwriting. Finally, after 51 years, "Jag hatar politik" is now reissued, accompanied by two previously unknown and unreleased bonus tracks, recorded later the same year. A true collectors item, now on
12" format including the story of the band, hear righteous & raw hard rock straight from the earliest Scandinavian soil!
