- The Kristet Utseende
The Kristet Utseende is a Swedish punk/metal/pop-group with roots in parts around
Gnarp betweenSundsvall andHudiksvall . The group themselves have said that their genre is "Narcotic Gay Metal" which would make them pioneers of this, otherwise very thin, genre.The Kristet Utseendes music is inspired by bands such as Misfits,
Metallica andThomas Di Leva . Those influences began to show when they left their demo period and received a recording contract by the Swedish record company "Eggtapes & records". On the old demo recordings there were an undisted pop sound through and through. The lyrics deals withhomosexuality ,drug liberalism ,christianity andmysticism . The band managed to complete several tours and to release three full length records and anEP -record before they split up after a final farewell gig on theHultsfred Festival in 1999.In 2005 the band reunited and performed on the Hultsfred Festival as well as on
Augustibuller (literally: August sound pollution), "Piteå dansar och ler" (literally:Piteå dances and smiles), "Sundsvalls gatufest" (literally: Sundsvalls street party), "Arvikafestivalen" (literally:Arvika festival) and inLund .This time there were no longer gigs in exchange of beer anddistilled beverage , instead they had a well thought out concept which they followed. This was because the band members had become more responsible individuals and that some of them had gotten their own family.In
May 25 ,2006 The Kristet Utseende released their new album "Sieg Hallelujah" on the "Black Lodge" record company. The single "Inferno Pervers" landed in third place at the Swedish single charts.Members
