Description
Kristiansand Group Munch was formed in 1986 and consisted of Ivar Mykland (vocals), Lars Årdal (keyboards), Rune Bergstø (bass), Alf Solbakken (guitar) and Rich Nordskog (drums). In addition, the lighting engineer Jarle Johansen and the sound engineer Harald Hempel (ex Lily & The Gigolos and in parallel with The Passengers) were band members to be counted, as their work was crucial to Munch 's artistic expression. Munch was one of the few art and industrial rock bands in Norway, and among the leaders in the field. The band started its own record label – T23, which became a gathering point for related and other music from the region. The music press had seen a “Norwegian Einstürzende Neubauten or Laibach”. The LP Excessive Mobility was released in 1990, but today costs a fortune in second-hand stores and is very difficult to find.
