Kampen

Kampen are a Swedish punk band from Gothenburg, often specifically referencing the Majorna district in their music. Their sound is raw and energetic, drawing heavily from Oi! and street punk influences, while their lyrics often focus on working-class struggles, social injustice, and anti-fascism. They've built a dedicated following with their politically charged anthems and boisterous live shows.

While rooted in punk's rebellious spirit, Kampen also incorporate elements of folk music, giving their sound a distinctly Swedish flavor. Songs like "Arbetarklasshamnstad" (Working Class Harbor City) and "Hard Times in Majorna" reflect their connection to their hometown and the experiences of its working-class communities. They're not afraid to tackle tough topics, and their music serves as a rallying cry for those fighting against oppression.
