The Maharajas "Unrelated Statements" 2004

In the end of the 1990's, Jens Lindberg decided it was time to start a new group, focused on playing the more moody stuff related to the 60's garage music scene. The group was named The Maharajas......During this period Jens, and the drummer of the band, Anders Öberg got involved in a new project: The Maggots. For a while, the Maharajas ceased to exist. Together with Måns Månsson the Maggots soon released a couple of singles on various labels around Europe.
But Jens and Anders had difficulties in keeping up with Måns in his effort to make the Maggots famous. Summer of 1999, Jens and Anders left the Maggots, and took up the Maharajas once more. This time Anders introduced Ulf Guttormsson as a new friend and bass player to Jens. The trio recorded a four-song demo at the beginning of 2000. Once again foreign labels were interested in the group’s moody music. As a result, Loser Records in England released a 4-track EP during spring 2001.
2001 was also the year when Mathias Lilja, former singer/guitarist of the Strollers, joined Maharajas. With him in the band, the group was now ready for their first full-length album “H-minor”.
The songs were most Jens. Their second album "Unrelated Statements" was the result of a band working together. The album had great reviews all over the world and the band several tours around Europe.
Their third album "A Third Opinion" was the last album with the drummer Anders Öberg. It was a tension between the member and not much happened after the release. Anders decided to leave the band and they started the search for a new drummer. They found Ricard Harryson from The Roadrunners. They recorded a 4-track EP for Crusher Records and it worked out really well. Ricard was now the new drummer…
