Kitchen + The Plastic Spoons - Screams To God
Review by Wahyu Langit
Screams To God, the latest album by Kitchen + The Plastic Spoons, is a captivating and electrifying work of art. The Swedish band has been around since the late '70s, and their latest offering is a testament to their longevity and creativity.
The album opens with "Ice Cream To God," a track that sets the tone for the rest of the album with its pulsating beat and frenzied vocals. From there, the album takes the listener on a journey through a variety of sounds and styles, from the haunting "Happy Funeral" to the upbeat and danceable "In Bars."
Kitchen + The Plastic Spoons have always been known for their unique sound, combining elements of punk, new wave, and synthpop. This album is no exception, with its use of electronic beats and synthesizers creating a futuristic and otherworldly atmosphere.
One of the standout tracks on the album is "Liberty," which features a catchy chorus and an infectious melody that will have listeners dancing along. Another highlight is "The Poet," a haunting and atmospheric track that showcases the band's ability to create mood and atmosphere with their music.

About Kitchen + The Plastic Spoons
Swedish post-punk band that existed in the years 19801982. They later returned with a number of gigs during the 2000s.
Iggo was playing in a band called Psyco wich had a gig planned at Musikverket in Stockholm. Due to illness the gig was cacelled but Iggo wanted to take the opportunity to do something else. Jackie and Mats played at that time in Porno Pop and together with Jackies new girlfriend Anne they within two days wrote and rehearsed three songs that they performed under the name Gdansk. After two gigs the name was changed into Kitchen and the Plastic Spoons. At the same time Helena joined in playing synth.
After a few more concerts they were invited by the producer Johan Vävare to record a single in a studio he had access to. Four tracks were recorded but only two were put on the record - ¨Fantastic and ¨Happy Funural¨. In the beginning of 1981 Patrik Lindvall joined the band on guitar at the same time as the second single ¨Ice Cream to God ¨ was recorded and to be released that spring. Around summer later that year Anne quit to be replaced by Iodine Jupiter but a few month later Mats and Helena left and the band continued with different members and the name shorten into ¨Kitchen and is considered as a different band.
Kitchen And The Plastic Spoons formed at a basement rehearsal studio in Stockholm, Sweden during the spring of 1980. The band consisted of Anne Taivan (vocals), Helena Lönnqvist (synthesizer), Iggo Karlsson (synthesizer), Jackie Pazda (bass), and Mats Wigerdal (drums). After a few concerts, Kitchen booked some free studio time and recorded their first single Serve You! in two days. Six months later Patrik Lindvall (guitar) joined the group and the band recorded their second single Ice Cream To God in early 1981. Kitchens sound was getting darker and heavier and so was the mood in the band. Anne shortly left and was replaced by Iodine Jupiter on vocals. This new line up recorded a few songs for local compilations. The band broke up in November 1981 before recording their debut LP, but reunited for some gigs 2008-2010
