Swedish high energy rockers THE HELLACOPTERS have been celebrating their 30th anniversary recently and after releasing something new - the much-lauded “Overdriver” album on January 31, 2025, which reached No. 1 in the Swedish charts for the second time in the group’s career – it is time to offer their dedicated fanbase something truly nostalgic. “Cream Of The Crap! Collected Non-Album Works • Volume 3” is the long-overdue follow-up in a series of rarities collections started in 2002 combining material from a myriad of singles, EPs, and compilations. The 24 tracks featured in this set have originally been released between 1995 and 2004, most of them only on vinyl, and include originals like ‘Disappointment Blues,’ ‘Freeway To Hell,’ ‘Doggone Your Bad-Luck Soul’ and ‘Long Gone Losers’ as well as cover versions of songs by MOTÖRHEAD, WILSON PICKETT, MC5, SMOKEY ROBSINSON, ALICE COOPER, the RAMONES, the NOMADS, ADAM WEST – whose singer Jake Starr penned liner notes for this release – and many, many more. Furthermore, a lot of these songs have never been released digitally. Meticulously compiled by Robert Eriksson, transferred from master tapes and vinyl by Henke Jonsson, and remastered for maximum audio fidelity by Magnus Lindberg, with “Cream Of The Crap! Collected Non-Album Works • Volume 3,” THE HELLACOPTERS proudly present a stunning collection of incredible, high-octane rock’n’roll on this over 75 minutes long double vinyl, CD and digital release.
