As growing up in the 90s there was no such thing as staying home with a sick kid. So I, Björn, hade to follow my dad to work. The sound of the angle grinder the smell from the TIG-welder and hours after hours hanging around surrounded with hard working men, black coffee poor ventilation and slightly dressed women on the walls. I guess it where the foundation was made. Being picked up at school in a Dodge van made me feel like a king with the roaring engine and Springsteen on the stereo. The ram it self was way cooler than all the classmates Volvos.
In early ages I came across bands like Metallica, Iron Maiden and Guns n Roses. Since then my musical path was laid. Start playing drums as 11 year old in my parents basement. Started my first band two years later. Been playing various instruments and styles over the years. Do it yourself shows, demo-tapes, home made merch. Become vegan and are still Straight Edge, record collector and tattoo addictive.
Dyxon Apparel combines the grease workshops, fatherhood and punk-mentality. When I became a dad and felt the need of doing something else than just being a worker so I started Dyxon Apparel, named after my two sons Jaxon and Dylan.
Dyxon Apparel is that Smokey burnout at the strip. The smell of melting rubber on asphalt a warm summer day. The DIY show at your local venue filled with stage dives. A home for the hand made and hardcore!
