TUNDRA – Dubbla budskap (EMI, 1982)

  
Swedish vocals
International relevance: -

Largely forgotten and consistently horrible latecomers with poet Jacques Werup of Storm on saxophone. Some lyrics have an anti-militarist sentiment and they're the most progg thing here as the music is mainly slick, radio friendly and occassionally discofied MOR. Lead-off track ”Solfångaren” however displays a clear inspiration from Chilean music. ”Solfångaren” was also recorded for their minor label debut single in 1981 with a non-album track on the flip. They had a couple of singles out in 1984 and 1986 respectively, plus another album in 1985, ”Våga livet”, which is so indescribably nauseating it will make your ears throw up.
