Dive into the wild world of Swedish punk with Pierre Tornkvist from Helltrain! Growing up in a dark, snowy mountain town, Pierre shares tales of tape trading, punk rock discovery, and the magic of Myspace connections. We explore their journey from local heroes to MTV fame, their collaboration with Rammstein, and the 20th anniversary vinyl re-release of "Route 666". Get ready for stories of punk, music smuggling, and pure rock n' roll adventure!

Can you believe how punk rock transformed from dark Swedish winters to MTV stardom?
