Background notes
Archive material and source history
Give Up! formed in Gothenburg, Sweden in 1999 with Johannes Berglund on vocals and guitar, Mattias Berglund on drums, Joel Lindberg on guitar and vocals, and Jonatan Burstedt on bass. Their music had a raw quality that felt more like a direct expression than a polished product.
In 2007, their album 'No! No! No!' included the song 'Terrible Place,' which became something of an indie rock touchstone for a while. The track's emotional weight and Berglund's vocal delivery connected with listeners who appreciated music that didn't shy away from difficult feelings.
Bassist Burstedt left the band in 2010, and around that time there were rumors about internal tensions within the group. Their songs like 'Forever' and 'I Want To' continued to explore themes that felt personal and sometimes heavy, which seemed to be what their audience responded to most.
