Alternative Rock? Postmodern Grunge?

Who knows? It's a fat sound

Songs were piling up. The singer songwriter Johan found his equals at gigs and partys. It ended with a complete band with Johan, Jeppe and Rickard.

-"We complement each other very nice and we all got the same sick humor."

-"We got very positive comments at the last gig."

 

 

Who are you people?:

The Swedish rock band Amplicrude started by the singer/songwriter and the frontman Johan Frisk. He´s been writing songs since he was a kid.

(Johan, behind the drums for a change)

 

 

 

Do you ever get stuck or tired in songwriting?:

Johan -"At times I have to stop myself from spending hours to get one barely noticeble tone in a song to make the song feel precisely like I want it to."

Do you prefer to write by yourself or with the band?:

-"It differs. Sometimes when we write songs together and you don´t have any expectations, you get kinda surprised when songs turn out so good!"

What is a good song and what is a bad song?:

 -"You know when the song is right cause both the lyrics and every single tune express the idea and the feeling you have. And you wanna play it over and over again. well, to me it is."

What do you like most with writing your own music?:

-"when people comes to you after a gig and tell your´s one of their favorite songs."

 

Former names of the band:

Told, Combination, Chaos Control, Simple Man. Recent name is Amplicrude.

 

New fresh start

 


 

 "Let´s start fresh" 

    

 

       

                      

 

In the end of the summer Johan met Jeppe Hesselgren (bass) at a party at Gotland.

Jeppe -"We met trough our friends. When we met I was pretty loaded, and apparently I was bragging about my bassplaying. After some stiff conversations as usual between strangers. We started joking and talking about music and we got along real good!"

 

And then Jeppe joined the band.

 

Rickard Sjödahl (Drums) a friend of Johan were asked to join. He were quite busy at the time and had to decline. 

 

Rickard -"Finally I got more sparetime and it was great that my drum experience could come in handy in the band instead of putting it on the shelter and just forget everything."

 

All together it might be considered a lucky shot.
