[edit] History

The band formed in late spring 2003 over a bowl of tomato soup at Umeå's Food Not Bombs, a place where many local punks meet. Three of the members were living together in the same apartment at the time, and some of the members were already playing together in other bands. Since all the band members had been playing in various bands before the idea was to start a band where every member had to start from scratch by playing an instrument they never played before. This is obvious when you listen to the bands two releases.

Some of the members also plays in Totalt Jävla Mörker. Inge "Inge Ansvar" Johansson also plays in The (International) noise conspiracy.
