Peter Dolving‘s ROSVO is currently in studio recording new songs. Check out HERE the first web episode recording the drum tracks.
ROSVO is a a sonic cross between houses falling from a great high, very traditional hardcore punkrock and the noisier sides of things. Taking the world of bands like Unsane, early Today Is The Day, or peers ken Mode to another level.
The Rosvo live experience is audience engaging, tight, funny, communicate, and verbally provocative, unlike the jockmentality of many ”muscle & tattoo”-bands in the world of hardcore/metal.
“Theme Park Family Fun”
ROSVO are Hans Simonen, Peter Dolving, Martin Lundgren, David Andersson
“Theme Park Family Fun”, the new video from ROSVO, the Swedish hardcore band fronted by former THE HAUNTED vocalist Peter Dolving, can be seen HERE. The song comes off the group’s debut EP, “Ticks And Ants”, which is available on iTunes. The clip was created by THE HAUNTED guitarist Anders Björler, Hans Simonen and Mark Alan Loso as “a continued cooperation of vigilante art for art’s own sake.” “Ticks And Ants” track listing:
01. Mommy Dearest
02. Start Chopping
03. Seasick
04. Theme Park Family Fun
ROSVO is currently touring Scandinavia and putting the finishing touches on the material for the follow-up to “Ticks And Ants”. According to Dolving, the forthcoming effort will be “a nice friendly audio anvil administered to the frontallobe of our beloved audience.”
ROSVO has been entertaining “tiny punk rock clubs and drunkard pub audiences” around Sweden and Denmark in January and February and will continue to do so throughout 2012. Currently unsigned and quite happily so, the four-piece outfit delivers a diverse and highly personal brand of intense, catchy heaviness more akin to that of DEAD GUY, COALESCE, CONVERGE and KEN MODE than more traditional hardcore.
In an interview with Metal Shock Finland, Dolving stated about ROSVO, “[The band] in itself is not really open for speculation or storytelling. It’s all about the music and the words. Anything outside of that, and the images it brings out are really completely uninteresting.”
Regarding ROSVO‘s musical direction and lyrical themes, Dolving said, “We are like a fastfood hardcore. We ARE the identikit. We ARE the cool tattoos. We ARE the macho. The über-tough guys, and a token of a politically correct. We are more straight-edge than an ecological box, We are stamped justice mince soy and we are angry. Very very angry. I’m sure some people will feel a great deal of discomfort by our well-defined agro. We are like Ninja in the night. Oh yes. Beware.”
ROSVO consists of Dolving, Hans Simonen, Martin Lundgren and David Andersson.
Dolving announced his departure from THE HAUNTED earlier today, writing on his Facebook page, “I have had it. I will NOT answer questions to why. It’s no one else’s business. I am looking forward to seeing you people at other shows with other projects.”

Commented Dolving: “[THE HAUNTED guitarist Anders Björler and I] shot this video in 45 minutes [in] Shibuya, Tokyo [during THE HAUNTED‘s early December Japanese tour]. Anders and Peter, one iPhone and a bunch of people on their way somewhere wondering what the hell the guy with the beard was going on about. Anders edited it in a couple of hours when we got home and here we have it.”
In a recent interview with Metal Shock Finland, Dolving stated about ROSVO, “[The band] in itself is not really open for speculation or storytelling. It’s all about the music and the words. Anything outside of that, and the images it brings out are really completely uninteresting.”

To describe Swedish hardcore band ROSVO, there’s no other better way than to quote Peter Dolving‘s own words: “ROSVO is a riddle. It is an enigma. A cult. A band of dissidents, creative volcanoes in his infernal majesty’s service to the fullest. I am not at liberty to tell you anything more about it.” … but let’s try to find out more about this enigma, wish me luck though… ;-P
*Hej Peter, Jag heter Tarja, välkommen till Metal Shock! Hur mår du idag?
*Hej Tarja! Jag är nöjd och utmattad. Jag har just jobbat färdigt med sångläggning för ett annat projekt som heter SCIENCE. Det är krävande att jobba så här intensivt som jag gör i år, men jag är ändå genuint tacksam och lycklig över att jag får möjlighet att arbeta med de här människorna.
Well, you don’t reveal a lot about Rosvo on your website or on your facebook… so, to start, I gotta ask you to tell me about Rosvo, how all began? And why you decided to form the band?
Honestly I think it’s, well, I mean ROSVO in itself is not really open for speculation or storytelling. It’s all about the music and the words. Anything outside of that, and the images it brings out are really completely uninteresting. Continue Reading
