Refused at HISTORY

Refused

Originating from Umea, Swedish hardcore punk band Refused formed in 1991. Enjoying a long and lasting legacy thanks to their unique blend of hardcore, punk and metal, the outfit broke many a rocker's heart when they split up following the release of the seminal album The Shape of Punk To Come in 1998. Luckily the punk gods intervened and the outfit announced their long-awaited reunion in 2012, a miracle considering the band's original and explicit declaration to never reunite! But now, the Swedish outfit are breaking up once again and kick off their farewell tour next year!
