THRASHING SWEDISH JAZZ-PUNK RIOT
- SLUTAVVERKNING RELEASES NEW EP -
September 5th, 2025 - Swedish avant-garde noise-rock collective Slutavverkning releases Skräp (aka. “Garbage”), the incendiary follow-up EP to their acclaimed debut full-length, Levande Charader (2023). The new set captures the band at their most raucous, primal and spirited form yet.
Keeping things DIY, guitarist Pelle Andersson recorded and mixed the deliberately shambolic affair; “We wanted to take all the forbidden sounds and production techniques, and squeeze it all into a pair of pants that’s too tight. Push everything a bit too far, right up to the breaking point!”
Four songs of idiosyncratic jazz-punk debauchery about the garbage we consume, believe, produce and leave behind. Skräp is irreverent, visceral and wild. A timely sound!
Available on limited 7” and all major streaming platforms via Feral Cuts.
“Drawing from the raw, unrestrained energy of The Birthday Party, the fiery ethos of Fugazi, and the unapologetic spirit of Fear, Slutavverkning forges a cacophonous alchemy.”

SKRONKY SWEDISH JAZZ-PUNK DYNAMITE - SLUTAVVERKNING RELEASES NEW SINGLE AND ANNOUNCES UPCOMING EP
July 31, 2025 - “Den mänskliga vredens arkitekter” is the lead single off Slutavverkning’s upcoming EP Skräp, set to release on September 5th via Feral Cuts. The demented jazz-punk gang of seasoned Swedish avant-garde veterans infused the dark, experimental atmosphere of their debut full-length (Levande Charader, 2023) with the invigorating energy of their early EPs (Arbetets sorgemusik del I-III, 2019-2020), then boiled it down to four abrasive and absorbing fresh cuts. Skräp is a visceral set from the far-out regions of noise rock, for fans of The Birthday Party, Flipper and Sonic Youth.
Acclaimed for their “unique sound and vision” (Maximum RNR), the new EP is all about garbage - with this particular single taking inspiration from our current political climate, as well as an iconic pop culture phenomenon. “This song is about waste management - by fear! I’ve been watching too much news… Or too much Sopranos?” - Jon Ekström, vocals.
Skräp will be out September 5th on limited 7” and all major streaming platforms. Pre-order available now on Bandcamp.
“It gets weird and I want more!”

LOW-BUDGET/HIGH-IMPACT NOISE ROCK FROM SWEDEN - SLUTAVVERKNING RELEASES NEW SINGLE AND LYRIC VIDEO
August 21, 2025 - The second single from Slutavverkning’s upcoming EP Skräp, “Lågbudgetrock” is a short and potent blast of ferocious jazz-punk. Recalling the Swedish supergroup’s earliest releases (Arbetets sorgemusik del I-III, 2019-2020), it’s fast and aggressive noise rock amplified by blistering clarinet. The band’s signature style is simultaneously abrasive yet catchy, and they are turning both the chaos and the fun up a notch.
“We wanted to do a real “trash-can song”, that is constantly on the edge of falling apart. We all challenged ourselves in different ways… For example, I wrote much faster guitar parts than I can comfortably play, while Isak decided to play the clarinet like a drunk who just found it and tries it out for the first time.” - guitarist Pelle Andersson.
The chorus asks the listener “What is waltz and tango compared to rock n roll?” - then answers it right away - with pure attitude.
Skräp will be out September 5th via Feral Cuts. Pre-order available now on Bandcamp.
“There is an omnipresent darkness in the sound that would rival that of The Cramps and The Birthday Party” - The Sleeping Shaman

- SLUTAVVERKNING BIOGRAPHY -
Slutavverkning first put its nose to the grindstone in 2018 to explore the sweet spot between proletarian noise-rock and unhinged acid-jazz.
On a trio of acclaimed EPs collectively titled “Music of Labour and Sorrow I-III”, core-members Pelle Andersson (guitar), Jon Ekström (vocals) and Marcus Källström (drums) were accompanied by renowned saxophone virtuoso Per Texas Johansson (Fire! Orchestra, Stockholm Jazz Orchestra). Shortly after, Per Wiberg joined on bass (ex-Opeth, Candlemass, Spiritual Beggars…), while Johansson’s Fire! Orchestra bandmate Isak Hedtjärn took over saxophone and clarinet duties. The already unique sound expanded into truly outlandish territories with this, as it can be heard on their debut full-length “Levande Charader” (2023).
Capturing the raw energy of their ramshackle live appearances, the same lineup recorded the incendiary follow-up EP “Skräp”, set to release on September 5th, 2025.
Slutavverkning is:
Jon Ekström - Vocals
Pelle Andersson - Guitar / Mix / Master
Marcus Källström - Drums
Per Wiberg - Bass
Isak Hedtjärn - Saxophone & Clarinet
