Rävjunk - Uppsala Stadhotell Brinner


"Rävjunk mix long track space rock with some early Stooges psych punk for something wholly original."
Ignoring the track Hello Little Girl, which sounds like a creepy pedophile anthem, you'll find some real badass jams here. Especially VI Ses (Vid Taj Mahal) and Mahal Revisited which sound like Can rocking with Wooden Shjips and Earthless (Snöspår is also really great). If you like krautrock at all you must hear these tracks. Also Rävjunk means Fox piss. Awesome.

Actually I think that "Rävjunk" means "Fox wank" in an Swedish dialect. It's supposed to be spelled "Rävrunk". I'm from Sweden myself so I think that's what the band meant.
