A diferencia de la mayoría de las bandas de rock actuales, que luchan sin objeto por ser originales (una palabra que raramente significa brillante), o simplemente intentan copiar las tendencias de moda (lo que normalmente significa insulso), The Hellacopters son una banda con sentido de la identidad además de una idea muy clara de su lugar en los 60 años de historia de la música grabada. Dentro de esta historia existe una gran tradición de melodías intemporales, autenticas, que salen directas de los corazones de hombres y mujeres que trabajan muy duro, y es en esta tradición en la que mejor se encuadran los Copters de Estocolmo.

What the MC5 and Stooges were to the '60s, what Sonic's Rendezvous Band and Radio Birdman were to the '70s, and what the Celibate Rifles were to the '80s -- that's what Sweden's Hellacopters were to the '90s. Young, strapping, and rocking out to almost cartoon-like proportions, the Hellacopters have made quite a name for themselves in Europe and Australia. And a deal with Sub Pop had them targeting the States. The rock -- fast, extremely hard, and loud beyond reason -- has gotten the band noticed by several of their seminal influences, such as Scott Morgan, who has performed with them many times as well as collaborated on a single for the aforementioned Sub Pop label, and also the Dictators, with whom they have done several European tours.
