I got lucky enough to meet both David and Dennis before Refused shows 3 times. They're very nice, accommodating people. They're intelligent and like to listen and converse. Easy people to talk to, even though they've been heroes of mine. Makes them more heroic to me because of the people they actually are. Get to a Refused show and get there two hours before the show starts, they'll be wandering around outside and aren't afraid to be recognized or talked to.

David Sandström is a genius. Fantastic drummer.

[@dannycheesums]

Awesome to see them mentioning Robert Wyatt - all his stuff is great, both solo and in soft machine

Dennis, caught a drumstick from a set u guys did in Melbourne with international noise conspiracy supporting rise against, one of the few memories in my life I can take to my grave and smile about

[@nicp2039]

Would love to know what u guys are listening to these days

So I realize this video is 3 years old, but how awesome are Denis‘ shoes? Holy fuck. Love it!

I remember meeting David at the train station in Arvika, Sweden in 1997 after the festival was over.. Cool guy

david sandström - my last living idol

[@Pr0d.AlfoNs]

he is my music teacher

[@wojciechgrzybowski7497]

I feel they are somewhat ashamed of their straight edge past. Early 90s, "Pump the Breaks", Earth Crisis influence and tons of great bands from their home town, Umea...

Also: Around the 9 minute mark Dennis recommends a noise-rock band - Bludit?!

[@Fairclough666]

I'm assuming this is the HC band he mentions leperhc.bandcamp.com/

This show in Vancouver with Refused and Metz was the last concert I went to before the world went into lockdown. Wouldn't have been a bad show to be my last.
