Refused: reunion rumours are“fucking weird”

Swedish hardcore punk band Refused split in 1998 shortly after the release of the The Shape Of Punk To Come: A Chimerical Bombination In 12 Bursts album which has recently been re-released.

The reissue led some fans to believe that the band was likely to reunite, but in an interview with FasterLouder’s reporter brittles the groups drummer David Sandström has denied the reports wondering “who makes that shit up” and calling the rumours “fucking weird” and “just annoying”.

In the full interview, which will be published on FasterLouder soon, Sandström tells us about the reissued album, the state of punk and hardcore today and making a record in Swedish with his Grandad.
