Swedish Post-Punk is a genre of music that emerged in the late 1970s and early 1980s in Sweden. It is characterized by its dark, brooding sound, often featuring distorted guitars, driving rhythms, and a heavy emphasis on atmosphere. The genre is heavily influenced by punk, but also incorporates elements of new wave, gothic rock, and post-punk. Swedish Post-Punk bands often explore themes of alienation, nihilism, and existentialism, and often feature lyrics in Swedish. Notable bands in the genre include The Leather Nun, Kriminella Gitarrer, and The Soundtrack of Our Lives.
