Since it was created as a manifestation of the idea of direct democracy, the chosen name was Kommun (meaning Muncipality in Swedish) . The men behind the new institution has a background in the town called Östersund and the bands Vapnet, Sibiria and Hospitalet. They deliver politics and black humor, together with classic guitar pop. Harmonies and production are recognized, but the sound is updated with a crunchiness that comes from a successful recording trip to Henrik Ojas studio in Umeå.
In addition, the community has changed language to English, without losing the sharpness and humor that characterizes the aforementioned bands. Many of the songs concern the conflict between ideology and practice,
Sense and Sensibility. Kommun catches how the heart stops beating in a greedy C.E.O in the text of “Death of a CEO” and wonder if it is the angels singing for the dying one, or just laughing voices from the poor and unemployed…
In true collectivist spirit, the songwriters Martin Abrahamsson, Martin Hanberg and Erik Laquist write four songs each. And when the band enters the stage of the debut gig, we would be really surprised if not everyone in the band stands behind a microphone – not to sing in, but for talking to the audience in their own words between the songs.
