MOB 47 INTERVIEW-1984

Punks Is Hippies is a online archive for DIY punk and hard core fanzines. The following are translations from interviews first published in Swedish fanzine Skottkärrans Ande #1 from 1984. The name of this fanzine from Åkersberga, Sweden, translates as "The Spirit of the Handcart", and was made by Peter Hirseland who is more famous from political crustband legend Svart Snö. The zine included Stockholm punk scene report, Ernst and The Edsholm Rebels (E.A.T.E.R.), Moderat Likvidation, Varukers, Anti-Cimex, Riistetyt, Mob47 and more.

You can download the complete zine here:

Translation by Slobodan Burgher, PunksIsHippies."
Mob-47 from Skottkaran's Ande # 1

"Here we have then the interview with Stockholm's absolute best hard core band Mob-47, first they are going to explain how the band started etc (unusual question (1))
Mob: Ake, Jogge and Chrille started Cencur in the summer of 82, in the summer of 83 MenTis [sic] came along on vocals and then we also changed name to Mob-47.

It is Mentis who sings on the 'Hardcore attack' cassette-tape. In Feb 84 we kicked out Mentis because he was so fucking lost (2).
Current line up is: Jogge - bass & vocals

Ake - guitar & vocals

Chrille -drums

What favourite bands do you have?
Ake: Crucifix, Neos, D.R.I., Eu's Arse, MDC.
Chrille: Discharge, ChAos UK [sic], Crucifix, Varukers.
Jogge: Abrasive Wheels, GBH, Bad Brains.

What political views do you have?
ALL POLITIC IS SHIT!!!!!!!

What do you think would be the best way to achieve peace on earth?
Obviously disarmament (3). But first we must disarm the police and the military who are protecting the warsystem.

What do you think about religion then?
All religion is shit, because it is based on submission of the individual.
Religion only creates prejudice and hate (only look at Belfast and Beirut).

Who writes the lyrics & music?
A guy who is called Per Lundstrom writes most of our lyrics (4). Ake makes the music and Jogge adds something little here and there.

What is more important the lyrics or the music?
The music, but good lyrics is a plus.

What do YOU THINK about the Stockholm punk scene, that everyone says is so crap?
-Worthless, only shitbands like Aggressiv & Krixhjalters are good (says Ake).
-Too few mangel-band!!! (says Chrille)
-Och 'B' (5) (says Jogge).

How can you make it better then?
MANGEL AS HELL!!!! (6)

If we can change the subject then....What do you think of Finnish punk?
Fucking great, in Finland they have fucking great mangel-bands like KAAOS, TERVEET KADET and RIISTETYT [Note: also interviewed in this fanzine, a few pages before this interview].

What do you think of animal testing/eating meat and all that bollocks?
All animal testing is murder (that's right - ed. note).
Of course it is double standard to eat meat but if you have been raised to eat meat it is hard to break the pattern.

Punk only gets faster and rawer for every day that passes, what do you think this is because of?
Punk has always been an agressive musical style and all the mangel-bands are inspiring each other to play faster.

And finally, DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING TO ADD??????
Thanks to the Hedemora mangelbands ASOCIAL & DISTRUST, who let us play Bunkern at 10/3. (7)

Translations notes:
(1) I.e. this is not an unusual question.
(2) Slang-term used here and therefore somewhat ambiguous or hard to translate - the direct translation is 'sunk' as in past sense 'the boat sunk'. The intended meaning is closer to 'fucked-up' (for whatever reason or reasons, which are obviously not mentioned). Trivia: the word "sänkt" in Swedish is also the same used by Protes Bengt "Bengt e sänkt".
(3) It is not stated specifically 'nuclear disarmament' and while you can use the term disarmament for many different types of weapons or forces, it is quite clear that what is meant is disarmament in relation to nuclear weaponry.
(4) Not sure who this is, could be real or it could be a joke.
(5) "B" = substandard.
(6) The word 'mangel' should be known to all fans of Mob 47 and Swedish hard core in general. The best translation would be 'thrash'. The answer to the question here can be directly translated as "mangel as iron" - in other words the Stockholm scene would be much better if the bands would do like Mob 47 and thrash like hell (as Swedish fans always scream at bands that play live: "play faster").
(7) Hedemora is a town slightly north of Stockholm, while Asocial are well-known, I can't remember a band called Distrust, Bunkern = The Bunker, a venue assumingly in Hedemora.

ANTI-CIMEX INTERVIEW 1984

Skottkaran's Ande # 1: Anti-Cimex interview
Translated by Tony Gunnarsson

"Here comes an interview with one of Sweden's most known punk bands, ANTI-CIMEX from Skaraborg (1).

The interview is quite old, but but. Jocke-guitars answered all the questions..."

"When did you form?
Sept 81.

What is the line-up?
Me guitar, Charlie drums, Sixten bass, Tomas vocals.

How would you describe your music?
It's a kind of noise you know. (2)

What are you lyrics about?
Religion, life and lyrics about the threats that are around us.

Do you think that you can change anything with your lyrics?
It is probably both + and -, if someone reads a powerful lyric then maybe that can lead to contemplation.

What do you think about society?
Society is not safe, there are always lots of dangers around you. It is expensive to live, double standards, unemployment, waste emissions etc.

Religion?
Hahahaha...Is it a joke? (2)

What is punk for you?
To have inner morals for that which matters/is real (3). To actually live a different way of life.

How many records/cassettes have you made?
2 vinyls and soon there will be a third. Cassette-tapes I don't really know, I don't keep track of that.

Do you think punk will change anything in the world?
I really don't know, but the world won't change me, I hope.

Why do you sing in English on your second EP?
Because a large part goes abroad.

Will you do army service?
Free-pass' first, but if I can't get that then it will be 'TOTAL REFUSE'. (3)

Do you have anything to add?
Do you have Anti-Cimex from Westsweden? (4)

Translator's Notes:
(1) This is a district region between the two great lakes, sort of between Stockholm and Goteborg but closer to the latter; more exactly some of the members are from the towns Mariestad and Skovde which is in the east of Skaraborg.
(2) English in original
(3) Exact meaning may be ambiguous, but essentially it means can mean both]
(3)Up until recently Sweden had mandatory army conscription at the age of 18, but significantly as a neutral country this service never meant that it was served in 'true' battle or 'real' war circumstances, in fact at most it meant what punks called "liberated from freedom", i.e. forced to do time in army barrack for a period lasting between 6 and 18 months.

At the age of 16 you go for a mandatory fitness test for army service. You could get a 'Free pass' if you managed to convince the psychologist or physicians that you were unsuitable for army service; in Swedish folklore, 1000s of would-be-recruits claim that they are 'bed-wetters' or simply crazy in order to get a 'free pass' (not that Jocke refers to any of this in saying that he will try to get a 'free pass').

Despite the army being a permanent peacetime institution, army service is a very common theme for tons and tons of Swedish punk bands, including Anti-Cimex's own 'Warmachine' ("Are you ready to die for your land?") which is of course about army service, originally it was sung with Swedish lyrics; most famous song is probably Ebba Gron's "Totalvagra" -which is what Jocke says he will do if he won't get a 'free pass', this carried a very serious risk of being sent to prison for up to 2 years -to say that you are going to 'totally refuse' was a sign of one's obvious hard line approach, though it is very sceptical whether any punks actually did any time for this]

(4) My italics. I have no idea what this refers to, could be a record or compilation or tape or article even or anything...But my guess is that it is a joke referring to what someone wrote in English, possibly because to say that Anti-Cimex is from west Sweden is not entirely correct. For e.g. Goteborg is on the west-coast while Stockholm is on the east-coast, Skaraborg as a whole is usually not considered to be west but sort of in between west and east. Incidentally, later Tomas Jonsson moved to Goteborg semi-permanently and at some stage Anti-Cimex became known as being from Goteborg, which is very usual for Swedes to say so to make it easier for foreigners to understand where about in the country they are from.
