The Backdoor Men Sweden

Biography

There are two artists: 1) Sweden's mighty Backdoor Men originally started up as the mod band Pow in 1982. Two years later Robert Jelinek, a Czechoslovak immigrant, joined the group and the sound and look changed and became wilder. The band released two brilliant singles and later Jelinek and Hans Ingemansson went on and formed The Creeps. The rest is garage rock history. Later drummer Ismael Samie joined The Livingstones - a "super" group who also featured members from Crimson Shadows and The Stomachmouths.
