Zitter is B gustaf on guitars and Fred Z on vocals and bass. The line up is completed with the tremendously fantastic siblings Roland and Rolandia, responsible for every other sound coming from the Zitter punk n' roll music machine.

We had a manager: I didn?t know we had a manager, but we obviously must have had since we just sacked her. During her ten-year regime she managed to get us one gig, one rotation of Red House n? Naked on a local student radio station and landed us exactly zero record deals. When she captured one of our few shows on videotape, she found it more interesting to film some people in the audience than the guys on stage. When we gave her a badge with the Zitter logo, she wore it on her backpack for one week before it ?fell off?. Then she finally told us, straight to the face: ?Your music suck.? That one hurt. But we are appreciating her as much as we possible can anyway. We must, since Fred is happily married to her.

Strange ways: The last two weeks have been a lil’ strange. First we had to change our rehearsal day from Tuesdays to Mondays. This turned the week a lil’ upside down even though we rehearsed on Mondays some years ago. The first Monday we left the building, we had to say hallo to a band we hadn’t seen in years. They seemed a bit surprised, probably thinking we had quit long ago. They can keep on dreaming.
But the strangest feeling came today when we strapped on our guitars and turned on the amps. The inspiration from this week’s concerts with Ace and the Wildhearts respectively might have been pumping in our veins, but most importantly; the first mix of the Quintus disc is done. That had to be cel...

Motörized: First thing, always the first thing to do after the door to the rehearsal space is locked up, is to put on a record. The second, always the second thing to do, is to make a cup of tea. It’s a sacred ritual. Music should always be vibrating in, through n’ out the cells. Not only for pleasure reasons, but also for inspirational reasons, for example when programming drums.
Up until now I have been the unquestioned master of the CD-player. But things have changed. This summer, Fred got a newborn interest in a good ol’ band. Not only did he buy all their albums from the 90’s n’ 00’s, he also showed up in clothes carrying the bands name n’ logo. Now I’m only waiting for him to ask me whether or n...
