Huvudtvätt (Headcleaners) - Complete Discography 1981-1984 CD (lim. 300)

The band existed between 1981 and 1984 and was formed by the brothers Mats and Torulf Nilsson. After the demise of Sundsvall's most famous (and orthodox) punk band Massmedia in 1980, the two brothers moved to Linköping to study, and they were eager to play again. It was originally planned as a solo project by Mats, but it resulted in Huvudtvätt (HT). With new influences from the US hardcore scene and England’s Discharge, they took a step towards a tougher punk style.
HT was focused on the Swedish market. All the song titles had a cleaning theme, and the ambiguous lyrics were humorous but serious at the same time.
The band also appeared on the international market as Headcleaners, whose name came from a cleaning cassette. The music was shared with HT, but the social critical English texts were written primarily by Janne, at the Uppsala label Malign Massacre. Through him the band also contacted and got a record deal with the English label Xcentric Noise Records and Tapes. With the help of this label and other contacts, highly valued discs and tapes were spread with great success all over the world.
Huvudtvätt had during their four years four different singers: Huw, Hasse, Janne and last but not least Lasse P. Patrik of Massmedia took care of the drums, except on the last album when the band borrowed from Kurt I Kuvös. On stage Huvudtvätt only performed once during their career. It was in Sundsvall in autumn 1982.
