Final Exit

**Final Exit** is a hardcore punk band hailing from Umeå, Sweden, a city renowned for its influential DIY music scene. Formed in the late 1990s/early 2000s, the group channels raw, fast-paced energy with politically charged lyrics, embodying the spirit of Scandinavian hardcore. Their lineup has included members like vocalist Andreas Johansson, who also played in bands like Step Forward, and musicians connected to Umeå’s tight-knit punk community.

Known for their relentless sound and grassroots ethos, Final Exit has released material through independent labels like Reflections Records and Distortion Records. Tracks like “Umeå” and “Teg” (from their 2023 split release *Final Exit / Cloud*) showcase their unapologetic intensity and focus on social critique, staying true to their underground roots. While maintaining a low profile outside niche circles, they’ve earned respect for blistering live shows and unwavering commitment to punk ideals.
