Refused (也称为Refused )是一支瑞典硬核朋克乐队，起源于于默奥，成立于 1991 年。Refused 由主唱Dennis Lyxzén、吉他手Kristofer Steen、鼓手David Sandström和贝斯手 Magnus Flagge 组成。吉他手Jon Brännström从 1994 年开始是乐队成员，后来重组，直到 2014 年底被解雇。他们的歌词往往具有不墨守成规和政治极左的性质，一度与直刃族亚文化联系在一起。

1994 年，乐队发行了首张专辑《This Just Might Be... the Truth》。随后，他们又发行了《Songs to Fan the Flames of Discontent》（1996 年）和五张 EP。1998 年，乐队发行了《The Shape of Punk to Come 》，将爵士和电子音乐的影响融入其中，但最初在商业和评论方面都反响不佳。乐队在随后的巡演中不久后解散。尽管 Refused 在当时取得的成功有限，但他们对随后几十年摇滚乐的发展产生了深远的影响。

2012 年，乐队重组并开始重聚巡演，随后又发行了更多专辑《自由》（2015 年）和《战争音乐》（2019 年）。

演艺经历

The members of Refused were all in different bands in Umeå in the early nineties, aware of each other, playing shows together but separated by the unshakeable apartheid of underground music. A small town's subcultural cliques are not to be trifled with: since there's no actual subculture the cliques are all people have.

1991年 In the winter of 91 however, David, previously lodged in the tiny Death metal faction of the scene, and Dennis, 3 years David's senior and a local punk icon, flatly rejected this code when forming Refused.

Thereafter they did what bands do: toured, put out ok records, evolved, disagreed regarding the bands essence and broke up for 14 years before reconvening for a triumphant comeback tour.

They say ruins are the triumph of oxygen and time, and time had definitely not treated all parts of the Refused machine with the same care, but after some fine-tuning they were able to set about re-configuring their artistic objective. DH Lawrence wrote: "It's better to die than live mechanically a life that is a repetition of repetitions" and that basically sums up the band's ethos.

So is there a point to this rambling? The answer is no. But if you've made it this far I guess you deserve some sort of pay off, so here's a joke by the great Norm Macdonald: "I wouldn't call myself a fan of Steampunk. But I will say, it is the healthiest way to prepare punk."

Refused have a new record out called "War music" and it's absolutely brilliant.
