Українська рок-артилерія / Ukrainian Folk-Metall

Agent Side Grinder is an electronic band from Stockholm, formed in 2005.

Their first two albums, "Agent Side Grinder" (2008) and "Irish Recording Tape" (2009) were rooted in post-punk, industrial and dark electro. The band quickly gained an underground following throughout Europe.

Their third album "Hardware" (2012) showed a bigger and more textured sound and was met with universal acclaim. It was named "album of the month" in Vice Magazine, topped several annual "best of-lists" including Dagens Nyheter, Metro and Time Out Paris and won the Manifest-award (Swedish indie-grammy) for best synth album in 2013.

In 2015 they released their magnum opus “Alkimia”, a dramatic and melodic album that exceeded the success of “Hardware” (another Manifest win) and cemented ASG’s position as one of Europe’s leading synth-wave bands.

ASG has a reputation of being a powerful and mighty live band. They have done seven European tours and played festivals such as Wave-Gotik Treffen, M'era Luna, The Great Escape, Eurosonic, Les Transmusicales de Rennes, NCN Festival, Terminus, Entremurahlas, Bimfest, Drop Dead Festival and Arvikafestivalen. They have opened for bands such as Suicide and Laibach and collaborated with artists like Dirk Ivens, Kite and Henric de la Cour.

Derzhkordon is a short form for saying "state border" in Ukrainian. This is where the name of this project comes from. The legal form of the Ukrainian state border must be restored – this is what inspires me to make music these days.

I like to explore different styles of music and do the recordings in my living room.
I know the tracks are imperfect and often in kind of a demo state but they were fun to play and record.
I don't mind making errors if I still manage to transport my ideas.
And of course I try to improve my performances over time.

Enjoy & support Ukraine
