MALCONTENT – s​/​t EP

MALCONTENT

Continuing with the flood of Swedish d-beat I reach out for an expert label on new and less known Swedish bands – Phobia Records. MALCONTENT is made up of members from Dissekerad, Makabert Fynd, Avskum, Kakafoni, The Nature and Hellkontroll, so we are talking credentials here. This EP is their only one release so far […]

Featuring members from DISSEKERAD, MAKABERT FYND, HELLKONTROL and EYEHATEGOD, this Swedish and New Orleans band sounds the […]
