The E.P. Compilation

If the music's gotten boring it's because of the people who want everyone to sound the same. It's time to get our priorities straight, skip the uniforms, quit the punkier-than-you-attitude and start realizing that if punk and hardcore will ever be a threat we need to get our shit together. We pride ourselves in the integrity of our herds, but words are just words are just words, while the brand you wear is the same as mine, we can't be out of step if we're still in line. One more round - we wouldn't want to trade new ground. Read more on Last.fm.

Refused is a hardcore band from Umeå, Sweden, formed in 1991. Members include vocalist Dennis Lyxzén, guitarist Kristofer Steen, drummer David Sandström, and bassist Magnus Flagge. Many sources cite the band as extremely influential in the development of underground music. Refused's lyrics focus mostly on revolutionary politics, drawing on Marxism and anarchism. Formed from the ashes of Step Forward, by the time of their first album the band already had a strong anti-establishment profile. Members were all vegan straight edge until their last show in 1998. After the initial breakup, Lyxzén formed other bands such as the (International) Noise Conspiracy, AC4, and INVSN.
