Since 1992 we have now and then re-released some classical recordings from the vinyl-vault. So far we have released Rasta Hunden, Krunch and The Kristet Utseende and two compilation-albums covering some of ours (and others) classical punkrecordings from 1978-1982. Vägra Raggarna Benzin Vol. 1 & 2, Punk från Provinserna 1978-82, will in spring 2004 be completed by Vol. 3 - the lost singles and unreleased tracks from the early Swedish punk outside Stockholm and Gothenburg. During 2003 we have released Left Hand Solution and Garmarnas debut-EPs remastered with bonustracks as full albums.
To top that you can find all the 10 first Massproduktion singles on Punksvall 1979-80. In the works in a Traste & Superstararna compilation.
A collection of early The Kristet Utseende demos is also planned for spring 2006.

RASTA HUNDEN
This local reggae-punk-pop group existed for only one year, hardly played outside Sundsvall and released only one album and broke up shortly after, but still is one of Massproduktions bigsellers. Their humorous lyrics, with a whole gallery of short portraits of local figures and singalong tunes is still finding new audiences. The CD also includes two previously unreleased live tracks.

KRUNCH
Another of Massproduktions bigsellers. Krunch from Timrå, a small municipal town close to Sundsvall, was one on the most important Swedish punkband of the mid-eighties and met a large international interest. They toured Europe twice but at that time interest for punk in Sweden was at it´s lowest level. Which did not stop them from having a small but very devoted following. High speed punk with neckbreaking turns and lyrics who could have been written with by Majakovski on lust gas made them to something special. Not to mention their liveshows...This CD includes all their recordings, except for the first Hello Bob EP. The band also finished the six tracks that would have been their last miniLP where they ended in 1989. So the album includes four previously unreleased tracks and two remixes.

THE KRISTET UTSEENDE
To really understand what these weirdos really are doing you must understand Swedish and have a large potion of somewhat perverted humor.
The Kristet Utseende is created from the belief that just in the outskirts of Gnarp there is a Christian sect, totally devoted to perverted sexgames, drugs and scandalous living in general. From this beliefs, all of their lyrics origin from and mixed with their punk and metal influences it makes a blend that don't have a comparison in Sweden.
