Honningbarna
ESNS:
2012
We haven't finished our crash course Norwegian, so we have to trust the description of Honningbarna's lyrics is right. They should handle adult hypocrisy, cowardly state leaders and the deception and lies by the rich and powerful. Lyrics fitting for punkrock. Made by six very young musicians in a band that just exists for two years, but made quite a statement in that period of time. They are not older than twenty but have the mentality of 1977. Musical conventions will not limit them. Honningbarna makes punkrock, however, that will not stop them to add a perfect guitar solo in their songs. Or to give their music some extra depth with cello and organ. The kick in the ass that Honningbarna gave with debut album La Alarmane Gå was answered with a pat on the back. "This is punkrock the way it should be played, but never has been in Norway. About time", wrote Norway's biggest newspaper.
