Slagsmalsklubben: seven inches of Scandanavian synth heaven
Slagsmalsklubben, Sponsored By Destiny (Zarcorp)
When white 7" singles drop though my letter box with commercially suicidal band names, they're usually from artists just starting their career, boutique vinyl being cannily collectable in our MP3 age. Slagsmalsklubben, however, which means The Fight Club in their native tongue, are a six-piece from Norrkoping in Sweden who have three albums under their belt.
