Gramm




Gramm was an Icelandic Record Company created by Ásmundur Jónsson and Einar Örn Benediktsson in 1981 .

Located in Reykjavík , Gramm’s first release was a 10-track 7" vinyl titled '' Tilf '' by Purrkur Pillnikk , a Punk group led by Einar Örn.

Besides releasing all Purrkur Pillnikk’ records, Gramm also issued works of artists like the English experimental group Psychic TV , Björk s first band Tappi Tíkarrass and KUKL (featuring Björk and Einar Örn). There were others like the legendary rock band Þeyr , punk groups such as Vonbrigði and others.

In 1987 Gramm went bankrupt. Ásmundur and some of the musicians who were playing in KUKL created Smekkleysa, that ultimately became Bad Taste , worldwide known by The Sugarcubes .
