After all this, the band reached a turning point. Full speed ahead focusing on the band or nothing at all. No halfhearted solutions, no compromises. All or nothing. Thatﾒs the way I work as a person, Ralf explains over a cup of coffee a Tuesday morning in Stockholm. Drunk or sober, angry or happy, all or nothing. There are no inbetweens in my world. The band now celebrates itﾴs 14 anniversary with Ralf and Stam as the sole original members. In 2008 David Johannesson (ex. Sparzanza) came aboard, and after that Jejo Percovi? (ex. Candlemass, Infinite Mass) joined the band in 2012. The songwriting for Mustasch has been unusually painless, which Ralf credits the new members and the new bandorder. Today everyone is free to write as they find best, follow their instincts and above all: focus on the best possible songs. Earlier, I wrote a little bit every day. These days I have to gather the ideas and write in more concentrated sessions. Theyﾴre not as frequent, but on the other hand thereﾒs more material to pick from. The lyrics are the same as always: anger and frustration desolation. Iﾒve got my roots in folkmusic, Ralf explains. My first instrument was the accordion and Iﾒve been to quite a few accordionmusic sessions. As my parents do a lot of folkdancing, it was at these sessions I spent my summers. A few years ago, when the whole band shared an apartment in Gothenburg, we always played Jan Johansson and (swedish crooner) Evert Taube at our afterpartys. It was the best way to come down after a night of partying. I donﾒt think Iﾒll be mixing in more folkmusic with Mustasch, however. There are others who do that a lot better than us. All or nothing. Nothing else will do. Mustasch is the evidence of that
