The debut, self-titled EP by Swedish alternative rock group **Bring the Hoax** is
out now on **Lövely Records.** Combining sweet melodies with fuzzed out guitars 
into colorful, energetic, and dynamic rock music, the EP ”Bring the Hoax” offers
5 crackling tracks that, among other things, take you on a road trip to Mexico, 
a jungle trip in the deepest Guyana and all the way back to 1993. Taking inspiration
from the massive soundscapes coming out from the punk-, indie- and grunge-era of
the 90s and blending it with their own distinct, fresh sound, ”Bring the Hoax” includes
everything you want in an action-packed 2022 indie rock record.

_”We’re constantly striving for the perfect blend of coarse-grained oversteered 
guitars that meets sweet melodies in some sort of asymmetrical harmony. And I think
we did a pretty good job on these tracks!” – _**_Hasse Karlsson_**

_”Dynamic energy, soft aggression and distorted harmony, all in the same package”–_**
_Karl Nordahl_**

”Bring the Hoax” was recorded by the band themselves, in rehearsal room and studio,
and mixed by Markus Ingberg. The EP is available on all streaming platforms from
the 28th of October, 2022.

**Biography:**
The four piece Bring the Hoax infuse their indie rock songs with 
strong fuzzy guitars and delicately sweet melodies. The songs are held together 
by an unapologetic force that hardly leaves anyone untouched. It’s clear that the
band members take their influences from the finishing decades of the 20th century.
You can hear hints of Sonic Youth, Dinosaur Jr, Built to Spill and Smashing Pumpkins
to name some.

Bring The Hoax is a rowdy, but yet polished and pleasant companion in the world 
of indie rock. Gritty dynamics are key in the songs of Bring the Hoax and the balance
between the dirty and beautiful guitar tones versus the mountains of distortion 
and fuzz can be heard in pretty much every song they ever written. The lyrics are
poetic and tell suggestive tales about politics, relationships and the everyday 
struggle that is life.

_“Ever since we were kids we have adored a sweet and catchy melody wrapped in a 
big fuzzy blanket of guitar distortion” – _**_Hasse Karlsson_**

Karl Nordahl and Hasse Karlsson both grew up in Viksjö, north of Stockholm, Sweden,
and were probably destined to become friends since they both were equally unable
to resist the mesmerizing pull of the massive soundscapes coming out from the punk-,
indie- and grunge-era of the 90s.

When they many years later had their apartments just shy of a 100 meters apart, 
it was time to start making music together. The first light the band name Bring 
the Hoax saw was of the fluorescent kind in a dark hotel room without windows, in
the basement of a cheap bed and breakfast in Rhodos, Greece, in 2010.

They asked Mark Petterson (My God Damn Territory, Washing Machina) – who Hasse had
played with in a couple of bands and projects earlier – to join them on bass. A 
bunch of drummers later Mark took the seat himself behind the drums when Sara Engström(
Washing Machina, Dag och Natt, Tam Tapir) was able to join on bass.

Bring the Hoax has recorded and produced 2 eps during the years prior to the 2022
signing with Lövely Records. Many great things are going to be revealed in the present
future.
