Perkele is a Swedish Oi! and street punk band from Gothenburg, formed in 1993 by vocalist and guitarist Ron Halinoja. Starting out with punk roots and touches of Swedish folk music, the trio gradually shifted toward the Oi! sound and built a loyal following through relentless touring across Europe and the US. With over a dozen studio albums and anthemic sing-along tracks, they are widely regarded as one of the most enduring acts in the European Oi! scene.
Perkele released their 13th studio album 'Theater' on October 3, 2025 via Spirit of the Streets Records, a 10-track follow-up to 'Back In Time' (2023).
Perkele undertook a Record Release Tour across Germany in late 2025, with dates in Dortmund, Wiesbaden, Hamburg and Berlin.
Perkele announced 'Theater' and described the album as a rock journey blending punk energy with heavy metal power, pushing their sound forward from their Oi! roots.
Perkele's Theater Tour 2026 includes a date at LKA Longhorn in Stuttgart, Germany.
Perkele announced their 13th album and an accompanying release tour, with support from Breath Bright Brüder, Paddy's and Los Fastidios at selected dates.
