Available for the first time since its release twenty years ago, The Backdoor Men were ultimate mid-1980s jangly garage rock/pop/folk from Sweden. Decades before bands like the
Hives
, Sweden was already well known for it's amazing modern beat-psych through compatriot and influential bands such as the
Creeps
,
Crimson Shadows
,
The Stomachmouths
and of course the sharpest of them all; the Backdoor Men. The mighty Backdoor Men originally started up as the mod-band
Pow
in 1982 but when the amazing vocalist
Robert Jelinek
, who was also in the
Creeps
, joined forces with
Hans Ingemansson
(guitar & vocals),
Stefan Nilsson
(bass), and
Ismail Samie
(drums), they changed their name to The Backdoor Men, playing covers of the
Chocolate Watch Band
,
Music Machine
and
Standells
. The rest is garage rock history. For the first time you can hear all of their recordings and read their exciting story. This album contains lots of unreleased bonus tracks, a groovy booklet with extensive liner notes giving an uncensored, first-hand peak as to what really happened, plus lots of photos. It's all here.
