The Setup by Kelly 8
Kelly 8 formed in Autumn 2001 in Uppsala, Sweden, having met each other through work and mutual friends. Having already been in a number of bands, from hardcore to rock, they focused on their common influences with Kelly 8, with bands like At The Drive-In, Engine Down, Jawbox, The Jesus Lizard, Fugazi and Shudder to Think providing the heart of their inspiration.
The Setup was their debut release and received fantastic reviews from Kerrang! (who gave the record a maximum 5Ks), Punk Planet, Fracture and scores of fanzines and webzines with many concluding that Pia's vocals were the band's trump-card. As far as introductions go it was a belter.
The band went on to release two albums on Bombed Out, The Technique of Pushing Someone Forward in 2004 and The Union in 2009.
