BACKENGRILLEN – Backengrillen – LP – Black Vinyl [JAN 23]

LP – Black Vinyl

The GRILL will fucking rule things Backengrillens debut album out in January

Backengrillen’s music is a paean to chaos and destruction. The basic idea is to take a death/doom metal or noise rock riff and play it until it loses meaning and then break it apart like a ravenous cat would a tiny forest mouse. It’s filled to the brim with the self-hatred endemic to the province of Vsterbotten from whence the members hail. The record was written on a Thursday during their first ever rehearsal, performed live on a Friday and recorded on a Saturday, so what you’re hearing is raw, stupid, gut-instinct music played by seasoned purveyors of hardcore punk, metal, free jazz, noise et cetera. Record no. 2 is in the making less stupid, more ugly. Stay tuned and fuck the pigs.”
Backengrillen, November 2025

Backengrillen is a new ensemble with their roots in HC, punk, noise, and free jazz. All members from Ume, with roots in the original version of Refused and one with starting points in the jazz-rock ensemble Nirvana (1980). With a solid and yet varied background in the creativities of Refused, TEXT, INVSN, Fire Orchestra, The International Noise Conspiracy, The End, Serpent, The Thing, Final Exit, and other classic jazz combos, we will now start our journey of four colliding locomotives, creating a new form of beauty and energy.

Antifascist, antiracist free-form deathjazz in the memory of Lars Lystedt Backengrillen arrives with new perspectives on jazz. And punk. In-your-face HC jazz inspired by The Cramps, Little Richard, Albert Ayler, Polly Bradfield, Entombed, John Zorn, Misfits, Stooges, Lars Gullin, Can, and much more.

Backengrillens self-titled debut album is out on January 23rd, 2026 on vinyl, CD, and digitally on Bandcamp via Svart Records.
