Krymplings
Encyclopedia
Krymplings was a Swedish
supergroup
punk band consisting of five lead singers in Swedish punk music which existed in 1994.
The band was Ulke (Strebers
, Dia Psalma
), Mart Hällgren (De Lyckliga Kompisarna
), Per Granberg (Charta 77), Curre Sandgren (Coca Carola
) and Mongo (Köttgrottorna
).
Everyone wrote the songs, and everyone sang, except for the one who wrote the song, who was not allowed to sing.
Krymplings made a record and a tour (called Dunken tur -94), and then stopped playing. However they made a slight comeback in the summer of 2004 for one concert at the Swedish music festival Augustibuller, and one concert at Kafé 44
in Stockholm.
Since that, nothing more has happened.
