  Millencolin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Millencolin is a skate-punk band that was formed in October of 1992 by Erik Ohlsson, Mathias Färm and Nikola Sarcevic in Örebro, Sweden.
Millencolin as a word derives from the skateboard-trick melancholy (also known as "sad air") because of their passion for skateboarding.
Millencolin continued to tour and in '95 brought out their full length album "Life on a Plate".

 Millencolin: Pennybridge Pioneers - PopMatters Music Review
Oh sure, Millencolin have been around for quite a while but it wasn't until I became an armchair skateboarder that I was even aware of the group.
Millencolin often employs a similar brand of thoughtful lyrics that Bad Religion features, and its music is closer to that of a group like Lagwagon.
It makes for a nice balance, showing that Millencolin can play it both ways on the serious/fun scale with no problem at all.

 :: Altsounds.com :: - Millencolin, Burning Heart Records
Until this point, it's all perfectly congruent with any band's story, except MILLENCOLIN had attained a level of success in Sweden which had them feeling adrift in a trendy sea, watching the original intent of the band bubble under.
After touring Pennybridge, MILLENCOLIN had reached the critical stage where, after four albums, it was time to make a sort of debutante disc introducing a band with a fully formed sonic identity.
This sincerity of sound that will further endear MILLENCOLIN to its rapidly growing fan base, which will get to experience Home From Home live this Spring, as the band prepares to beef up their already-impressive lifetime gig total (650-plus), with another world tour.

A rabble-rousing hard rocker with big chords and a screaming guitar lead, is this the Millencolin of the new millennium?
Perhaps not, for in contrast, "Queen's Gambit" is an invigorating old-school-meets-new-school number, with a touch of angst-ridden indie drone thrown in for good measure, while "Dinner Dog" returns the group to speedy melodic punk form.

I think that every suburban American punk rock kid is issued a Millencolin album when they hit ninth grade.
The band has put together this compilation of their first two EPs, B-sides, a live song, covers, and songs from other compilations, apparently because these songs are hard to find outside of Europe and are expensive.
I think Millencolin might've been better off not releasing a few of these songs thought, notably "Pain" off their first EP and the cover of "Every Breath You Take." I'd definitely recommend this album to Millencolin fans or anyone who wants an overall view of the band.
