About

Millencolin is a Swedish punk rock band that formed in 1992. They take their name from an aerial skateboard trick known as “melancholy.” The band sites skateboarding as the reason they all came together. Millencolin hails from Örebro, Sweden. Current band members are Nikola Sarcevic on bass and vocals, Mathias Färm on guitar, Erik Ohlsson on guitar and Fredrik Larzon on drums.

In early 1993, they released their first demo tape Goofy. In the summer of 1993, they released their second demo called Melak and sent a copy to the label Burning Heart. Their sound boasted the pop/punk/ska sound popular in the early 1990s. They were signed to Burning Heart in 1993 and produced the single “Use Your Nose,” released that November. Millencolin released their first full-length album Tiny Tunes in 1994 but faced issues with Warner Brothers over the title and cover art. In 1996, they rereleased the album under the title Same Old Tunes.

Their second full-length album with Burning Heart, Life on a Plate was later rereleased in the United States on Epitaph. They began touring globally in 1995 and were part of the 1997 Vans Warped Tour. Life on a Plate was followed with albums For Monkeys and The Melancholy Collection.

As the musical stylings of Millencolin evolved, they found their groove with the release of Pennybridge Pioneers in 2000. In 2002, the band released the album Home from Home and won the “Best Swedish Rock” award. Their follow-up album Kingwood made its debut at number two on the Swedish charts. The band hosted an annual skateboard competition in 2007 in their hometown to honor the sport that united them.

In 2008, they released Machine 15 followed by the album True Brew in 2015. True Brew reflects the band’s influences as well as showcases the sound of a band that has been together for more than 20 years.
