Editor's note

Backyard Babies' Swedish rock with punk energy

A Swedish band that's been mixing melodic hooks with raw rock since the late '80s.

If you want to hear what they're about, 'Minus Celsius' and 'Shut The Fuck Up' give you the picture. They're both from that late '90s period when their sound really came together.

They've got that specific Swedish rock sound that doesn't quite fit any single category. Songs like 'Shut The Fuck Up' show how they balance catchy melodies with a punk edge. 'Minus Celsius' from their 1998 album 'Total 13' became one of their most recognizable tracks.

They formed in Nacka, Sweden in 1989 and put out their debut 'Diesel and Power' in 1994. The lineup has included Nicke Borg on vocals and Dregen on guitar through albums like 'Making Enemies Is Good' and 'Stockholm Syndrome'.
