    Sweden’s Legendary D-Beat Band AVSKUM return with their first new album since 2008, “ En Annan Värld Ar Möjlig" ( Another World Is Possible). Their fifth album has 17 new tracks of rage filled D-beat hardcore supporting Indigenous rights, Self-determination and attacking Fascism, Militarism, Misogyny and political corruption. Avskum’s sound has it’s roots in their 1982 origins at the earliest stages of Swedish hardcore punk, with harshly screamed vocals and quick blasting songs, underlined over the ensuing decades by a rock driven heaviness with searing guitar solos, thundering bass lines and rampaging drum attack. Recorded by Kenko at Communichaos Studios, the album features guest vocals from Tompa from At The Gates / Disfear, TB from Asocial / Uncurbed and Mattis from Makabert Fynd. With two stunning cover illustrations by Jordan Barlow to hammer home their vision of empowerment and resistance. AVSKUM will tour the U.S. Midwest and the West Coast in September 2023 with Resistant Culture.

lyrics

THIS SILENCE IS A VIOLENCE

So I’m talking to you
Those who live in the secret
Chorus:
This silence is violence To the soul, To the soul Silence is A Violence Violence to the Soul

So I’m talking talking to you those who are of the secret

Rise up take back your power Cause it´s fucking time
Cause it´s fucking time


This lyric and the sound-clip/intro is taken from a public speech written and performed by Zhou Anihera Angela and Lauren Piiata Tiakitai Turi-Heenan, two courageous Maori Women who choose to rise up and speak out about the sexual abuse in their community. Speaking from my own experiences, as an incest survivor, breaking out of the surrounding shame and silence is crucial to heal you’re wounded soul/Gunnar.
