All the other music we listen to might as well.. but this is pretty much it. Until it's updated!
Sounds LikeFROM THE ARCHIVES:

"Gamen" was the first single from our 1999 release "Vedergällningen", aka "Vengeance". We did a low budget live shoot at Studion, a now shut down rock club in Stockholm. Just back from a couple of days in Cannes, it helped that drinks were free.. and it seems to have helped the overall atmosphere too..



"Herr Holger" was a single from the "Guds spelmän" release. We did this video to it. Yes, it's very low budget. Yes, we do understand that it's not the coolest video ever made..



"Den Bortsålda": Our first video. Budget: Absolute zero. Shot illegally without anyone knowing. It's brutal and we like it... and look how absolutely adorable we are! It's 1994 and we look about 8.. the quality is pretty sad but we hope to replace it with a better conversion in the future.



"Vänner & Fränder" is an old live favourite. We tried to shoot a simple video in the same colour scheme as the cover to the album, "Guds spelmän". This is the shorter single version



Filmed in Sardinia, this is the promo video for the second single of the "Vengeance" album. Nuns and bald men and a beatiful scene with Emma and some black birds..

Euchari



This is back on YouTube now.. so enjoy our live version of "En gång skall han gråta"!

   About Garmarna
We ARE personally managing this space!

We started this band in 1990, when we all of a sudden fell in love with the more dramatic old folk music of Sweden. A period of trial and error led to our first recording in 1993, and the setup we have today. The music has evolved from pure folk to something radically different, incorporating elements from almost every musical genre we listen to. It's quite a stew now..

5 releases to date:

"Garmarna", in ´93,
"Vittrad", in ´94,
"Guds spelmän", in ´96,
"Vedergällningen", in ´99
"Hildegard von Bingen" in´01.

The band has been having a lengthy break but we will update this space whenever any news emerge. Please bear with us... stay tuned!

David Franks: Walkabouts Verse



Nov 3 2009 5:42 PM

After you've finished here, you may like to hear this poem sung on myspace...

Poem 162 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse
(please see my blog):
TEES TO TYNE: FIRST IMPRESSIONS - SUMMER 2001

Where traditions are not so rare;
Sea, country and works scent the air;
A multitude of monuments,
Planted tubs and patterned pavements.

The longish pedestrian malls;
The remnants of defensive walls;
Historic buildings are a gauge
Of the respect for heritage.

Wheat, rape and pines in the fields;
Estuaries guarded by shields;
Long sandy beaches and wide scenes;
Romantic-ruin go-betweens.

Rivers in parts licked by trees,
Or fringed by boat clubs, wharfs, gantries,
And crossed by practical delights -
Varied spans, forming pleasing sights.

Fine churches headed at Durham;
Football kits ad infinitum;
Kept castles - one for study;
Masonry behind masonry.

And, with moulding-works out that way,
It’s somewhere for a longer stay..?

(C) David Franks 2003

Bientôt Dietrich tour 2010/2011
Tourneurs Troisquatre

DIETRICH : c'est parti !
Préparez vos agendas pour ne rien manquer de la tournée 2010 de Dietrich. De l'Orient à l'Occident, laissez vous emporter par ces voix de la terre au travers de l'album « EVOK ».
Venez danser et festoyer aux sons de ce duo unique, accompagné de deux musiciens : Toma Venegoni (guitares électrique/acoustique, clavier) et Greg (percussions).

En attendant leur tournée officielle, vous pourrez déjà vous régaler sur les deux dates additionnelles de 2009 : le 21 novembre au Phare à Tournai (be), et le 4 décembre au festival de la Chanson Wallonne à Mons (be).
Retrouvrez les infos sur www.myspace.com/jeucdietrich

Pour patienter...
Juste pour vos yeux et vos oreilles, Jeuc, Anik et leurs compagnons sont en train de concoter un film histoire de vous immerger dans l'univers et la folie de Dietrich.
A découvrir absolument Mi novembre sur leur myspace !

Prochain album, le travail commence !
Dietrich ne s'arrête jamais. C'est pour cela que le nouvel album, que certains attendent déjà certainement avec impatience, se construit tout doucement sous leurs doigts habiles.
Disponible pour fin 2010, restez cependant vigilants, quelques extraits pourraient se glisser dans leur myspace au cours de l'année...

A très bientôt,
DIETRICH

Out now on He Of The House Media

HOTHCOMP001
We'll Leave the Lights On

He Of The House's very first (of many) compilation. Nineteen tracks from twenty artists, the end result of which is possibly one of the most diverse compilations I've ever heard. From soft spoken acoustic folk to raving, churning dirge tunes; from a noisy, industrial cover of a Sonic Youth song to oldschool punk from when it was still raw, fast, and unforgiving. Powerviolence peppers the grounds where spooked whispers whinny along, and the caustic words of a madman festering in his own mind play out over perpetually plucked guitar strings. A true honour it is to work with these amazing artists, and I do hope we can keep them coming back for years.

Featuring: Zombie Battle Axe, xHaroldShitmanx, Kro & Jason "EVIL" Covelli, Nemesism, Ginny Greenteeth, Don't Move, Spiral Vertigo, Chachi On Acid, Mike Bruno, Autopia, Dead Kid Harvester, Jason "EVIL" Covelli, Karmakumulator, Chelsea Wolfe, RedSK vs. teh soup rebellion, Torturing Nurse, Sleepers, Flea McGruff

Housed in handmade & handpainted paper jackets with individually original black tissue cutouts, enclosed with a button. Featuring full page insert artwork by Jason "EVIL" Covelli and a blurb about each band/artist from myself.
Limited to 45 handnumbered copies.

For more information, tracklisting, artwork, and information on future compilations, as well as a wealth of other fun tidbits, visit
