“Autocrats” is the first single from “WAR” – the new album from Norwegian underground legend Schwein, which will be released on September 13th.

Schwein is known for playing in bands such as Russian Amcar Club, Kaare & Partiet, Ym:stammen, Schweinhund and more, and as a sound technician on various recordings with Jokke & Valentinerne, Raga rockers, Dum Dum Boys and Satyricon. Live engineer for Khold, Cradle of Filth, Satyricon and Dimmu Borgir – and the list could go on.
At one point he even won a drum audition for the legendary Spinal Tap – No joke!

This new album is the sound of war regarded to the crazy situation with wars in Ukraine and Gaza, and autocrats worldwide. This song especially is about all the shitty autocrats all around the world abusing their power, written when Ukraine was first attacked by Russia.

The single & album was performed, recorded, mixed and produced by Svein in his studio in the deep forests of Østerdalen, Norway during 2022/23.
