Goodness knows why, but in the early 80s Solna, a suburb of Stockholm,
found itself the centre of a startlingly fertile scene of high-energy
rock'n'roll that looked back to the 60s for inspiration. This 40-track
compilation rounds up the best of that music, starting and finishing with
Swedish garage's two best-known bands, the Nomads (blistering through a
cover of the Third Bardo's I'm Five Years Ahead of my Time) and the
Leather Nun. In between, snotty aggression is the order of the day,
essayed to thrilling effect during the breakneck snarl of That's the
Breaks by Voodoo Dolls. The audience for this stuff was small, but global
and committed û the riff and refrain of the Screaming Dizbⁿsters' This
Ain't the Summer of Love would crop up on one of the key early grunge
singles out of Seattle, Green River's Swallow My Pride.
