Biografia:
A banda sueca Nomads tem se destacado de outros grupos garageiros revivalistas por causa da intensidade das suas performances e da ampla gama das suas influências, que abrangem não só a sonoridade das indefectíveis bandas sessentistas mas também punk setentista, heavy metal, rockabilly e blues.
Seu primeiro disco apresentou uma crua regravação de "Psycho", da Sonics; a banda tirou 500 cópias do autofinanciado single em 1981; 50, porém, revelaram-se defeituosas e foram descartadas. Seguiu-se outro single, contendo uma energética interpretação de "Night Time", da Strangeloves, e, ato contínuo, o reconhecimento pelo seu primeiro minidisco, "Where The Wolf Bane Blooms". Em 1984, o grupo realizou sua primeira turnê europeia e chamou a atenção dos Estados Unidos com seu disco "Outburst". Apesar das tentativas bem-sucedidas de elastecer seu som, usando metais na gravação de "She Pays The Rent", de Jeff Conolly, e um dispensável sintetizador em "My Deadly Game" (com influência da Suicide), a banda angariou um pequeno grupo de admiradores nos Estados Unidos; isso pode ter ocorrido devido à gravação de poucas canções originais. Assim mesmo, conseguiu criar, de certa maneira, uma música genuinamente empolgante, ainda que não muito inovadora (Todd Kristel, AllMusic; tradução livre do inglês).
