The Pain "77, Sweden's Blurbs |
About me:
Swedens first prime punk group,first named Pain in my ass, started 1976 in Stockholm, Sweden.
Spiv Åland and Håkan Uppgren came home from Paris, were they jumped into this Punk package with The Damned, Clash, Subway Sect, Roogalator and Tyla Gang.
Thats IT. After playing around in different school/basement bands as Henshead they went for it.
The first planned setting was:
Spiv Åland, vocals
Hocky, guitar
Håkan Uppgren, guitar
Marshall, bass
Stejmo, drums
Well. Marshall never got hold of a bass, so Hocky took over.
After a year Håkan had enough and left to play with Reeperbahn. So we got connected with a guy from Nacka called Ant, Janne Oldaeus, who put in a lot of Stooges power. We made an EP.
Well, Janne was tired and we moved on, he later formed Rost, and also plays with Jerry Williams.
So, we had to find us another guitar player. We tried Christian Falk, later Imperiet, but he was too much of a hippie.
Lucky enough, we bumped into an old schoolfriend Janne Mandarin. Janne Andersson had played with Four Mandarines and was eager to play.
With him in the group we became more pop. We recorded a single and some demos.
In the middle of 1979, Janne quit to play with Radio (ex Tears) and touring with Ulf Lundell. Thats punk!
Later he and Stejmo formed Japop.
So, after a few attempts with Andy McCoy, later Hanoi Rocks, Pain broke up.
Spiv went on to form B-Films.
Hocky joined Chatterbox.
But thats another story.
