Info for In Distortion We Trust (Remaster)
Crucified Barbara is a Stockholm based rock/metal band that has been around since 1998 and they released their first album "In distortion we trust" in 2005. This is really an amazing and solid debut from these swedish girls. What we get here is a band capable of delivering quality heavy rock and roll and they really kick ass. I read somewhere that "this is Runaways crossed with Motörhead" and I think that is a really good description of what you get on this album and I would like to add some Skid Row to it all. The girls all play very tight and Mia Coldhearts voice fits perfectly with this kind of music.
This album is really packed with great sleazy metal riffs and giant melodic hooks, just listen the single that preceded the album, "Losing the Game", and you will see what I mean. And with their cocky lyrics like "Life's a bitch but so am I you see, I dedicate my love to a Flying V" they really show a great attitude and they do it with so much love and conviction that it works perfectly. Other great songs on this album are "Play Me Hard," the title song "In distortion we trust","Motorfucker", "My heart is black" and "I wet myself". This is a great album and I recommend it for fans of 80s sleazerock / hard rock and metal.

Crucified Barbara
Formed in Stockholm in 1998 by bassist Ida Evileye and guitarist Klara Force, CRUCIFIED BARBARA is Sweden's hardest rocking quartet, playing a fiery brand of rock 'n' roll tinged with metal and lashings of punk, pop, thrash, and whatever else dares to cross their path.
No strangers to hard work or success, CRUCIFIED BARBARA’s debut single from their 2005 debut In Distortion We Trust climbed to #8 on the Swedish pop charts. They played Australia, toured across Europe opening for Motörhead, Sepultura, In Flames, and Doro, and earned a prestigious slot alongside Black Sabbath, Velvet Revolver, and System Of A Down at the U.K. Download Festival. With all that touring, it would be four years before the band got around to recording their second album, 2009’s ‘Til Death Do Us Party. Next thing you know, there they were on national television performing in Eurovision’s 2010 Song Contest and made it to the semi-finals. Go figure.
Entering the legendary Music-A-Matic Vintage Recording Studio in Gothenberg with sound engineer Henryk Lipp and producer Chips Kiesby to create CRUCIFIED BARBARA’s third studio release, The Midnight Chase features the beautifully evil “Rock Me Like The Devil,” the anthemic “Everything We Need,” and the commandeering “Into The Fire.” Ida Evileye dominates her trusty Sandberg bass, Klara Force rocks steady on her ’76 Gibson Explorer, Mia Coldheart belts out her unapologetic vocals while riffing all over her Gibson Gothic Flying V, and Nicki Wicked pounds on her glittered Yamaha Maple drum kit until you’re splayed across the floor with a bull’s-eye knock-out punch that’ll make you spit your teeth out. Now you know what happens when Motörhead mates with The Runaways.
So how did they get their name? The band members attended Denmark’s legendary Roskilde Festival and came across something very unexpected in a nearby forest: a blow-up doll (generically called “Barbara” throughout Sweden) attached to a crucifix. And no, they didn’t identify with the victim, they claimed the power of the aggressor right on the spot and have never looked back.
This album contains no booklet.
