the history of KRANKEN SVINE
The band KRANKEN SVINE
started up in the summer of 1996
and the members are :
MANGE :SLAP BASS
ALEX : GUITAR AND VOX
ANTON : DRUMS AND VOX
The band started with Anton and Mange and we had to searh for a guitarrist for a few months but throu an add in the paper we found Alex . The band was set and ready to Rock´n´roll , the first gig we made was in a small pizza place in a town called Södertälje (south of Stockholm) and it was just because one of our friends had his birthdayparty there . After that we have been playing a lot in different carclubs in the Stockholm area . Its hard for psychobands to get gigs in Stockholm so we have to play in those places but it´s allright. The latest coupple of months we have been starting to play more of our own material instead of playing covers . We got some own songs that are appreaciated by the swedish psychos .
So here is some
stuff about the members .....

30 years old and have been playing the slapbass for about a year , I got
four kids and a new girlfriend , I come from Stockholm and have been living
here my whole life . I started to listen to psychobilly for about 5 years
ago and have been listening to Rockabilly before , I grew up with rock´n´roll
because my parents listened it .
