*200 copies limited edition* Gustafsson and Lindsjö had collaborated in the mid-eighties in the Swedish-American group The Bad Quartet. Playing local gigs in both New York and Lund. Lindsjö later moved back from New York City to reunite with Gustafsson in Stockholm, where the ensemble Gush had just begun to establish itself. With their shared American influences in mind, Raymond Strid was recruited on drums to form the trio Maxcolic.

The trio started off in a free improv funk/rock that contrasted Gush's more European tradition. Inyourface-no-wave-infused-improvised-music with an ambition to swing (in our own tradition). Inspired by Ornette Coleman, Bern Nix, Robert Quine, Tony Oxley, Amin Ali, James Blood Ulmer, Thore Skogman and Anders Ångest and always looking for more, now is the time for their debut release. Recorded in 1990 in the rehearsal space of “Ett minne för livet” and Gush in Stockholm.

Maxcolic's relatively short existence was marked by various collaborations where musicians such as David Moss, Christian Munthe and, as here (mainly visual artist) Edward Jarvis contributed to filling the dance floors.
