ASBJØRN SLETTEMARK // WE – SMUGGLERS 2004
After ten years of intense space rock, it was a bang in 2004, when Smugglers suddenly landed. All of a sudden, the Oslo band We, which had painstakingly built itself up, was at the top of the VG charts. They scooped up awards and rave reviews, and became one of Norway's biggest and most talked about bands.
