YEAR0001

Viagra Boys are a Swedish post-punk band from Stockholm. Formed in 2015, the band consists of members from various other bands such as Les Big Byrd, Pig Eyes, and Nitad. Their debut album Street Worms was released in 2018 and received high praise from Nils Hansson, a journalist at Dagens Nyheter. Hansson commended their unique musical style, clever use of black humor and satire, giving the album a perfect rating of five out of five.

YEAR0001 is an independent record label based in Stockholm, Sweden. Founded in 2015 by two visionary individuals, it has quickly established itself as a force to be reckoned with in the music industry.

Our goal is simple: to help our artists reach their full potential while delivering exceptional music experiences for our listeners.

Some say Viagra Boys is something akin to a looking glass pointed at the absurdity of existence and misconceptions of modern society. A depraved and ferociously bass-driven judgement on western civilization, a distorted 24/7 party on the acid highway whilst the world slowly rots away. Others claim they´re more like a gross joke on masculinity, gleefully serving up escapist narratives lacking any form of self-preservation; like an obfuscated back alley door into the backwaters of the human psyche. Metaphors aside, Viagra Boys is an unapologetically raw sextet comprised of classically trained jazz musicians, karaoke loving tattoo artists and seasoned hardcore scene veterans.

They churn out pulsating sounds from the sub levels of contemporary rock music - a bellowing, unstoppable force majeure of latter-day punk, PTSD disco and synthetically enhanced kraut. With several Swedish Grammy nominations, an Impala Award for "European Independent Album Of the Year" and a spot at Coachella Festival 2020 in the bag, Viagra Boys unveil their new EP Common Sense.
