Refused is an experimental hardcore punk act from Umeå Sweden, who are frequently cited for their extremist anti-capitalistic viewpoints. Their music seamlessly blends death metal, punk rock, electronica, and jazz into an intricate and clearly formulated style, and pushes political discourse to the forefront of their lyrics.
Dennis Lyxzen , David Sandstrom, Par Hansson, and Jonas Lindgren formed Refused in 1991 and within that year released their very first demo “Refused”. They followed it up in 1993 with their debut EP “This Is the New Deal” and a year later put out their first studio album “This Just Might Be the Truth”. Between the time of their formation and their studio debut the group’s line up had been shifting dramatically, but by the time they released their 1996 sophomore album “Songs to Fan the Flame of Discontent” they had congealed into a stable entity consisting of vocalist Dennis Lyxzen, guitarists Kristofer Steen and Jon Brannstrom, and drummer David Sandstrom. Prior to the release of their 2nd studio album they had issued four additional EPs “Pump the Breaks” (1994), “Everlasting” (1995), “Refused Loves Randy” (1995), and “Rather Be Dead E.P. (1996).
In 1997 Refused released two expansive compilation albums both which featured a variety of cover songs. “The E.P. Compilation” contained re-workings of the Misfit’s “Bullet”, The Prodigy’s “Voodoo People”, Born Against’s “Half Mast”, and Afro Jetz “I Wish”/ “D.R.S.S” (the later of the group’s was Lxyzén’s previous music project). “The Demo Compilation” featured cover songs of AC/DC, Motley Crue, Beastie Boys, and the Gorilla Biscuits.
The group’s seminal 3rd studio album “The Shape of Punk to Come” was released on 13 April 1998. The title is a reference to Ornette Coleman’s album “the Shape of Jazz to Come” and was also inspired by punk act The Nation of Ulysses. This album while considered a punk classic subverted the traditional framework of the genre and introduced techno, art rock, and jazz under a hardcore guise. It was a record with anti-establishment lyrics and had the perfect soundtrack to back it. Apart from it’s unexpected musical influences such as Bo Diddley and Igor Stravinsky this album also referenced literary works by Allen Ginsberg and Henry Miller.
Though Refused disbanded shortly after this release, “The Shape of Punk to Come” is considered a landmark album in punk music as well as one of the most creative recordings of the 20th century. It has since been included on Kerrang! magazines’s 50 Most Influential Albums of All Time List as well as Rock Hard magazine’s book “The 500 Greatest Rock & Metal Albums of All Time”.
In 2012 Refused ended their 14 year hiatus with an appearance at Coachella Festival and went on to play many other highly publicized shows that year. They continued on with their reunion tour in 2013 and in 2014 announced that they will be returning to the stage to play Leeds Music Festival. Refused have influenced countless bands among them including the Used, Paramore, Underoath, Rise Against, Blink-182, La Dispute, and Code Orange.
Leer másRefused’s 1998 album The Shape of Punk to Come is without a doubt one of the most important hardcore punk records ever. It paved the way for all the post-hardcore and melodic metalcore bands of the noughties – without Refused, there would be no Bring Me The Horizon, Thursday, Enter Shikari, etc. The Swedish band actually broke up few months after the release of this album, having performed just a handful of shows in support of it, and never really received the credit they deserved. But Refused and their landmark album retrospectively became legendary, so when they finally reunited in 2012 it didn’t feel like a cash-in; I truly believed their intention to ‘give the album the tour it deserved’. When the band announced their London shows at The Forum I was ecstatic but a little worried they wouldn’t live up to my enormous expectations. How wrong I was. Refused were incredible, brimming with authentic punk rock energy and blessed with serious musicianship. Seeing songs like ‘Liberation Frequency’ and ‘The Deadly Rhythm’ performed live was a dream come true. The band sounded ferocious and on-point, with frontman Dennis Lyxzén passionately screaming his way through their best songs, shimmying and bouncing like a man half his age. When they eventually launched into their hardcore punk anthem ‘New Noise’ during the encore the place erupted. It’s such a shame their reunion proved to be short-lived, but hopefully they will be inspired to get back together again one day…
Hardcore punk is not a genre often affiliated with Sweden, a country far better known for its power pop exports has an anomaly when you consider the importance of quartet Refused. They were known to be incredibly politically charged during the early years and these themes continued through the important first albums such as 'This Just Might Be... the Truth' and 'Songs to Fan the Flames of Discontent'.
Due to inter-band disputes, the group parted ways at the end of the 90s so their discography remains stationery at three albums. However since reforming in 2012, the group has returned to the live circuit much to the delight of the loyal fanbase with a newly designed stage show which really emphasises the hardcore elements of their music. Video interludes, impending instrumentals and developed reworking of classic material such as 'The Holy Drinker' keeps the audience thoroughly engaged. They appear to be a band revived so it will be exciting to see where they take their career next as a new album, which should hopefully be accompanied by a new tour is rumoured to be in the pipeline.
An amazing performance! Went on recommendation from a friend who lent me Shape of Punk to Come a few years back. They didn't disappoint. They look great. They sound great. Relentless energy and noise. I've seen some great bands this year and this was the last gig of 2015 for me and was right up there with some of the finest performances I've ever seen in the past 30 years. Thank goodness they reformed. Look forward to seeing them again!
What an amazing line up this was .. a two piece electronic hardcore with female vocalist loud and intense. The second band Metz was great I mean the guitar work was outta control drums were crazy and driving bass lines for an over big wall of noise sound. Refused as we all know killed it. Great stage presence awesome performance played most of there hits so yeah great show
Bucket list band checked off.
If if you ever have chance to watch this band don't sleep on them, there one of the best live bands I've ever seen and that don't show any signs of slowing down.
From their perfect setlist that covers each era of the bands discography, to their amazing on stage showmanship of their front man Dennis Lyxzen. they really won't disappoint.
This band is a must-see live show. I’ve seen them twice now, and this time was even better than the last (which was also outstanding). Flawless, high-energy performance and not to mention, sounded great! If they come to your town, do yourself a favor and go!
