ANTIBIOTICA is a Swedish Thrash/Heavy Metal band that was formed by Jack Hagström and Hugo Bengtsson in february 2023. A short time later, the drummer Martin was found and they could start laying the foundations for the first self-written songs. Martin also recommended bringing in his cousin Kasper on bass, which worked out great. 

With this line-up they started planning their first recording. It was decided that it would be a two track single including title track “The Butcher Of The Soul” and ”Deceiver”. Two songs that reflect well what ANTIBIOTICA is about, a hybrid of Thrash and Heavy Metal. Influences are taken from everything like KREATOR, TESTAMENT and SODOM to IRON MAIDEN, ANGEL WITCH and JUDAS PRIEST. The list could be made long. 

In October 2023 they entered the studio to record their two-song single debut with Henrik Borg (SATUREYE, 100 YEARS, TPFDT etc.) as recording, mixing and mastering guy. They decided early on to do the recording without clicks, just to get that old feeling of energy and a genuine vibe. 

The single is self-released and is so far only available digitally on all major streaming platforms. But if a record company with interest is found, it will also be released on vinyl. Of course, there is also a search for a good record company to sign for a full-length album.

Clubs and festivals are more than welcome to get in touch if you want to book ANTIBIOTICA.

Prepare for a sonic explosion as punk rock discovery Elukas drops the official video for “Vein.” This power-packed track is part of their EP “Loomad Koos,” scheduled for re-release through Wormholedeath.In their music video “Vein”, the band showcased an unwavering DIY spirit, working with a short budget. The video’s direction was skillfully handled by their bassist, Alan, who was eager to explore his talents as a music video director. Impressively, all the daring stunts featured in the video were executed by their nearly-semiprofessional stuntman, who also happens to be the band’s lead vocalist, Karl.The song itself delves into the theme of addiction, and the band wanted to convey that message visually in the video. Even if the lyrics might not be crystal clear to all their listeners, Elukas hopes the video tells the story in a powerful and visual way.
Experience the punk-rock revolution as Elukas unleashes “Vein” on the world.

In May, they recorded 3 singles at Sinusoid Studio and held a writing camp at the drummer’s summer house. In late summer, their original bass player left, and singer Karl took on bass duties. In the fall of 2022, they released three singles at monthly intervals. “Ajurünnak” gained recognition on RockFM and Raadio2. Due to an injury, Alan filled in on bass and later joined permanently. In February, the band recorded their debut EP “Loomad Koos”. The single “Vein” (April 7, 2023) made it to the top 5 best new rock songs by RockFM listeners.
