Skambankt
Here is another great track for the hard rock fans. I'll note that while Skambankt (Norwegian for beaten to shit) is a good band, this is by far their best song, in my opinion.
"Skambankt (Beaten to a pulp or beaten up) is a Norwegian Hardcore band from Klepp, just south of Stavanger. They play a mixture of classic rock'n'roll, punk and hardrock in the tradition of bands like Motörhead, AC/DC, Sex Pistols, Ramones and The Stooges. All the lyrics are in Norwegian, and they convey the real spirit of punk: against the state, against the system, against corruption, capitalism, monitoring, religious fanaticism, and generally hate and treachery."
they appear very angry and hostile.
ReplyDeletecannot understand what they are screaming about?
It's expressed well on Wiki:
