Background notes

Archive material and source history

Imperiet formed in 1982 with Joakim Thåström on vocals, Christian Falk on keyboards, and Ulf Dageby on drums. They started with a post-punk sound but shifted toward synthpop, which became their main direction. Their 1985 album '19hundra80sju' was a breakthrough in Sweden, with the title track becoming one of their most recognized songs.

The band released several albums through the late 1980s, including 'Smalax' in 1986 and 'Blå himlen blues' in 1987. Songs like 'Du Aer Religion' and 'Afrika' show their blend of synthesizers with melodic hooks.

They kept recording into the early 1990s before eventually disbanding. Their synthpop style left a noticeable mark on Swedish music from that period, and tracks like '21st Century Sign' and 'Alltid Attack' still get played on Swedish radio decades later.
