Big Fish - Fyra Liter Stoft

Facts The cult-status band Big Fish, formed in 1988 in Uppsala, Sweden, originally played experimental industrial music rooted in the troubled but fertile soil of 1980s Europe. However, by the early 1990s, they started drawing inspiration from heavy rock and Scandinavian folk music and began writing lyrics in Swedish. Their debut album Vargavinter from 1992 took the Swedish underground scene by storm — and stirred some confusion — with its uncategorizable energy.

Throughout much of the 1990s, the band toured extensively and released three albums, but disbanded in 1996 when members moved on to other cities, countries, and pursuits. Interest in Big Fish’s distinctive music persisted over the years, and when the original members reunited and released the album Kalla döda drömmar in 2022, a new era began — welcomed with open arms by both new and old fans, as well as rave reviews.
