Bödel Released New Single “Grisarna Och Snuten”

F-A-S-T-E-R is the best word that comes to mind to describe the Swedish punk hardcore band Bödel career up to this point. When the drummer Masken (from ex Antabus, Sub Alert) in late 2023 heard the punk band Chörnobyl where the singer Leya has done some vocal parts, he immediately contacted Leya and her father Arvid (from The Crown, Deny, Mähälium) if they would be interested to start a band together. With no intentions of reinventing the wheel, to play d-beat-driven hardcore and punk, the way it has always been done. Sure thing, Henke from Pastoratet and Liptones was involved on bass, and the first rehearsal went down in February 2024, three songs were made and the chemistry within the band was there right away. A snippet video from the rehearsal was recorded and put on their Facebook page – and boom! Promoters and labels worldwide contacted the band and wanted to sign them. Bödel entered the studio a weekend in March 2024 to record ten songs for different releases. The first live show went down 31st of March at Skjulet in Gothenburg, Sweden. They finally signed a record deal with the US label Atrocious Disarray to release their first vinyl during autumn 2024, in co-op with Swedish DiSTAT. In the end of June Bödel released a limited cassette by Bruse Tapes, Fightback Records, and Mossil which sold out after only two days… The first single “Bilan faller” was released on the 14th of June, made a big buzz in the punk community, and received great reviews and airplay worldwide.

The future is to keep that raw uncompromising punk/hardcore going. Still don’t want to reinvent the wheel but just spin it a little bit faster…
