Silverbullit

Silverbullit is a Swedish rock band based in Göteborg.

Formed in 1995 under the name "Silverbullet", which was changed after a conflict over the rights for the name. They are known under the name Citizen Bird in the US, and toured under that name and released their album Citizen Bird as a "self-titled" LP there in order to avoid trademark confusion with an American rapper.^[1] The band plays synth-influenced rock music. Amongst others, sources of inspiration are DAF, Depeche Mode, New Order and The Stooges, as well as video game music. The group was nominated for a Grammis for Best Rock Act.^[2] Their album Arclight was announced to be the best Swedish album of 2004 by a vote of music reviewers.,^[3] but have not yet made a real popular break-through.

They have done numerous festival gigs and have also toured together with The Soundtrack of Our Lives, to whom they are sometimes compared.^[4] Lead singer Simon Ohlsson is usually very wild and erratic on stage and several performances have gone awry. For example, early in the band's career, a gig in Varberg ended with Simon being dragged away by police who thought he was on drugs; and at Rookiefestivalen 2004 he jumped out into the sparse crowd and was thrown out from the venue by a security guard, while the rest of the band kept playing.
