Swedish post-punk is a genre that emerged in the late 1970s and early 1980s, characterized by its dark and moody sound, driven by heavy basslines and angular guitar riffs. The lyrics often deal with themes of alienation, social critique, and political commentary. The genre has evolved over time, incorporating elements of new wave, goth, and indie rock. Today, it continues to be a vibrant and influential part of the Swedish music scene.
