Biography:
Dictator Ship! A frenetic rock’n’roll quartet channeling their inner obsession of 60‘s soul and doo-wop, inspired by early giants such as Sam & Dave, Sly & The Family Stone, Jackie Wilson and The Platters. Their live act is often described as a combination of the raging sound of The Sonics, the discontent attitude of MC5 and the pure stamina of Elvis Presley in Las Vegas.
Dictator Ship released their debut album “Your Favorites” on The Sign Records in 2020. The album was received with acclaim and Classic Rock Magazine marks it as ”An astounding live-in-studio debut from a raw twin-guitar-fronted quartet of Swedes, all of whom double on vocals, channeling the MC5‘s explosive, action-rock remodel of 60s soul. Essential. 9/10”. In 2021, Dictator Ship released two singles that will be followed by their second album ”Electric Jihad” in September 2023, along with three more singles.
”Electric Jihad” is a step up from the debut album in every single way, with more harmonies in the vocals and more structure in the guitars. It‘s also a reflection of how the band feels about the society they live in.
