Biography

Formed in 2012, Spiders is a Swedish rock band known for their high-energy performances and their powerful blend of classic and modern rock influences. With three albums under their belt, they’ve become a staple in the European rock scene and continue to capture audiences worldwide.

In partnership with the legendary Wild Kingdom Records, Spiders is ready to carve a new chapter in rock history. Sharp Objects brings together shattered dreams, lofty visions, and the raw essence of rock ‘n’ roll, creating an album that’s both nostalgic and fiercely modern.

As with their previous releases, Spiders’ sound is deeply rooted in classic rock ‘n’ roll. However, Sharp Objects offers something fresh, weaving in influences from the early 80s’ new wave and garage rock scene. This album takes listeners on a sonic journey – from the legendary Truckstop Alaska in Gothenburg, across New York’s iconic Bleecker Street, through London’s vibrant Soho, and back again. Along the way, you’ll encounter a musical landscape where the spirit of bands like The Faces, Dead Boys, Fred Cole, and Bikini Kill lives on, while a rebellious Debbie Harry gives a defiant nod to the present.

Founded in 2012, Spiders quickly made their mark with their debut album Flash Point and continued to build their reputation with follow-ups Shake Electric (2014) and Killer Machine (2018). Over the years, they’ve toured extensively, bringing their electrifying performances to rock clubs and festival stages across Europe and the U.S.

With Sharp Objects, Spiders are set to push boundaries once again, offering a record that blends grit, attitude, and a deep respect for rock’s past and future.

“Sharp Objects” will be available worldwide in February 2025.
