Punk & Oi! in the U.K. webzine
BREWED IN SWEDEN - various (Blind Beggar Records)
26 tracks by 14 of Sweden's finest punk and Oi! bands. This CD is well worth getting just to listen to the different bands as a taster, then you can go out and buy their full albums. Most songs are in english. Bands include Agent Bulldogg, Dims Rebellion, The Pints and The Negatives, plus many more. An excellant mixture.

Camden Town #14 papperzine
VVAA ”Brewed In Sweden” CD. (Blind Beggar)
Second volume from the serie “Brewed In...” from the German label Blind Beggar, this time it compiles the best from the actual Swedish scene. This Cd is really a bomb, because of the bands selection (there’s no bad band featured!) and also because of the quality of the tracks which are mainly unreleased before. In total we find 14 bands and nothing less than 26 songs. Some are famous names: Agent Bulldogg or Headhunters, and a bunch of young bands: Unit Lost, Dims Rebellion, The Pints, The Righteous, Perkele, Wildcat Strike, etc etc. The best aportations are for my taste Unit Lost “Do You Wanna Know?”, Headhunters “Destination Nowhere”, Dims Rebellion “Next To The Gods”, Pints “Shadow Of The Past” and Perkele “My Home”. A very good oportunity to know the best out of Scandinavia.

Pissed & Proud webzine
V/A Brewed in Sweden "The Premier leauge of Swedish Oi!/Streetpunk"
This is the result of the proud and strong swedish scene. This is probably what many of the bands fought for to get, a own swedish compilation with the BEST from the scene. The CD got 26 tracks and are played by following bands: Agent Bulldogg, Dim´s Rebellion, Unit Lost, Perkele, Headhunters, The Pints, Medborgargardet, Free Martins, Negatives, Sniffing Glue, The Righteous, Wildcat Strike, The Fisticuffs & Planet Pogo.
This masterpiece is made by Blind Beggar Records and many of the songs are unique for this compilation.
WARNING: for you geekos who enjoy the so called "streetpunk" that mainstream companies like Burning Heart releases, get the fuck away, this is PURE fuckin Oi! from the REAL streets.
Its hard, its spelled SKINHEAD MUSIC and SKINHEAD PRIDE and is nothing for people who enjoys peace and order. This is pure SWEDISH Oi! PRIDE in short.
This is going to be a classic in the swedish Skinhead history with the Oi! heroes of tomorrow, its a must for every descent skinhead in sweden & rest of the world. Get it!
Rank: 5/5

Skrutt webzine
BREWED IN SWEDEN (CD-BLIND BEGGAR BEG CD 022)
A compilation with 13 streetpunkband/punkband/oiband or what we shall call them. it´s very diffiuclt to choose the best because all 13 holds very high class and I gets more and more impressed by how good the swedish punkrockscene is. But to the point Agent Bulldogg plays a nice streetpunk and I can notice that they have been on the road for a while. Wildcats Strike have a little thin sound but I hear Exploited and Blitz there. Negatives plays wonderful 77-punk and so do Headhunters with their melodic style. Rancid have influenced Planet Pogo in a good way and Perkele have really getting better. Please check this out because it´s wonderful.
