Swedens Kvoteringen started out as a project between Jallo (Totalitär, Meanwhile ex- I.R.D etc.) and Larre Thrash (Millencolin, ex- I.R.D etc.) back in 2003 after being in the talks for quite some time.
With influences mainly from rough hardcore punk from the early 80's the vision was to keep it that way - Scandinavian old school punk. No hassle, pure mangel!

After a couple of rehearsals Raggar Olle (bass) and Råttan (vocals) joined them and the line-up was complete. During one late evening fall 2004 the recording of the first EP "Roffarens Marknad" took place at Necro Studios (Studio A), Örebro.
The band teamed up with Terrötten Records who released the debut EP following spring 2005. "Roffarens Marknad" quickly sold out and was later re-pressed to sell out again shortly after that.

With the buzz starting to spread Kvoteringen entered Necro Studios again to record a bunch of tracks for what resulted in their second EP "Vidrig Maskinell Framfart" released 06' (sold out). A few songs was also recorded a little later for an upcoming 7" inch split with Aussie band Pisschrist - to be released sometime this spring 2007 by Australian label Endless Blockades.

Show and festival offers started to come in, but suddenly Raggar Olle and Råttan decided to drop off Kvoteringen.

New vocalist Calle joined the band end of the year 2006. Calle is a local mad man who 15 yrs ago played in the rawpunk band Blint Raseri with Larre.
