Punk transformed during the early 1980s from the pub rock influences in the -70s to a musically brutalized so called D-beat sound via bands like Exploited and Discharge. In Sweden, Gothenburg located Anti-Cimex took a frontal position. Youth got inspired by this new, more energic punk. It reborned as the nastiest child among teenage cultures with even more vulgar clothings, hair cuts and attitudes than earlier. The main ingredients were, and still are, the music, the visual look and the ideology; criticism against war, violence, racism, fascism, religion and the globalized capitalism. A clear dissociation from drugs, alcoholics and meat industry in the start, has though split up into different groups. It´s a small but strong, worldwide culture that has influenced other part of the underground scenes, i.e. black metal, goth and hellectro. My pictures never were ment to be published, until I, 30 years later, discovered what this period in the 80s and early 90s really was all about: the birth of a very special youth culture - the hardcore. It´s fantastic to have experienced this. I realize now.
