NJUTÅNGER – Grodden/Vem leker med dockor? (7”. Fest Produktion, 1981) / Njutånger (12”, Fest Produktion, 1982)

International relevance: **/**
Swedish vocals

A band from the northern town of Skelleftehamn, and that enjoy some interest from progg fans. Their debut 45 ”Grodden” b/w ”Vem leker med dockor” is straight ahead rock in a Rekyl/Kylans Rockorkester vein, with heavy guitars working in its progg favour. The self-titled, four track 12” EP is a bit different, with a few post punk shadings unusual to progg on ”Havet är djupt”.

Both discs were released by Manfest's subsidiary label Fest, but for their full length debut ”Bitterljuv” from 1983, the band moved to the main imprint. A reformed Njutånger recorded a couple of demos more interesting than their early material. Those and more can be heard on Njutånger's Youtube channel.
