Their biggest influence is Dismember, also from Sweden
2) Lik was a short lived Norwegian duo formed in 1980 which can be said to play a mix of new wave, punk and syntheziser music. The two band members were Trygve Mathiesen and Carl Otto Platou who both were ex-members of loads of other bands like Ingen Adgang, Squirms, Negativ/Positiv, Aktiv Dødshjelp, Left Overs and XTRM. The main inspiration for the band is said to be the German electropunk band D.A.F. Lik are also said to be inspired by the old heavy bands such as Black Sabbath. The band split in 1981.
