Homy Hogs

Homy Hogs was a Swedish punk band, active from 1979 to 1982 and reunited on different occasions during the 80s. They are counted as the true Swedish pioneers in HC-punk together with bands like Headcleaners, Anti Cimex, Missbrukarna and Shitlickers. This considers their first two releases, the album Noje For Nekrofiler from 1981 and the EP Smash Overdose from 1982. Thereafter, the band played in a more regular punkrock style. They also made some appearances and an album under the name Werewolves on Wheels, taken from the title on their second album.
