From AllMusic:
What the MC5 and Stooges were to the ’60s, what Sonic’s Rendezvous Band and Radio Birdman were to the ’70s, and what the Celibate Rifles were to the ’80s — that’s what Sweden’s Hellacopters were to the ’90s. Young, strapping, and rocking out to almost cartoon-like proportions, the Hellacopters have made quite a name for themselves in Europe and Australia. And a deal with Sub Pop had them targeting the States. The rock — fast, extremely hard, and loud beyond reason — has gotten the band noticed by several of their seminal influences, such as Scott Morgan, who has performed with them many times as well as collaborated on a single for the aforementioned Sub Pop label, and alsothe Dictators, with whom they have done several European tours.
