We’re very happy to present one of Sweden’s finest bands at the moment. The title track of their current album Islands & Shores is simply impossible to describe without an excessive use of superlatives. It’s been on heavy rotation at Gimme Indie since September. We caught the band upon their second night of two sold out shows at Berns, one of Stockholm’s most beautiful venues. Enjoy some hardcore Umeå quality, a band to love.

Meet Umeå-based band Deportees through the voices of Anders Stenberg (guitar) and Thomas Hedlund (drums). They discuss… well, guitars and drums obviously. They also reveal the idea behind the cover of their new album and answer a question from fellow Northern artist Jennie Abrahamson.
