  • Step Forward was a Swedish hardcore punk band founded in 1989 in Umeå, Sweden by Dennis Lyxzén and his friends, Toft Stade, Jens Nordén and Henrik Jansson. Step Forward was one of the first hardcore punk bands in Sweden that held on to the American straight edge lifestyle. They soon released their first demo "I Am Me" and in October 1990, their second demo, "Does It Make a Difference". During their existence they played a handful of gigs, mostly in the north of Sweden where they are from. Differences of opinion on the kind of songs they wanted to play finally reached a point of no return and Step Forward was dissolved. They played their last gig in December 1991. In 1996, a Step Forward CD entitled It Did Make a Difference was released on the hardcore label Desperate Fight Records. It included the demo-recordings mentioned above as well as two of their live-sets. Although the band no longer exists, Dennis Lyxzén created a new band, Refused, in 1992, which has revolutionized hardcore punk in Sweden and around the world.Jens Nordén has since played in somewhat notable bands as well, such as Regulations, The Vectors, E.T.A. - and along with Lyxzén, the last lineup of Refused side project Final Exit. In 2008 Nordén and Lyxzén teamed up with Karl Backman, The Vectors, and David Sandström, ex-Refused, to form a new hardcore band called AC4. (en)
  • Step Forward to jeden z pierwszych zespołów straight edge hardcore punk z Umei. Powstał w 1989 roku a ostatni koncert zagrał w 1991 roku. W 1990 nagrali pierwsze demo zatytułowane "I Am Me". Zagrali kilka koncertów w północnej Szwecji, skąd pochodzą. W 1996 roku Desperate Fight Records wydała album Step Forward "Did It Make A Difference". Na płycie znalazły się poprzednie nagrania demo, nagrania koncertowe oraz utwory nagrane na próbach. Po rozpadzie Step Forward Denis Lyxzén założył Refused. (pl)
  • Step Forward (1989-1991) var ett av de första hardcore-band som kom från Umeå och deras demo var även det första släppet som Umeå Hardcore gjorde. Step Forward var även ett av de första band i Sverige som uppmärksammade straight edge. Sångaren Dennis Lyxzén skulle senare bilda mer uppmärksammande Refused, Final Exit och The (International) Noise Conspiracy. Trummisen Jens Nordén gick vidare till The Vectors, Regulations och återfinns sedan 2008 även i AC4, återigen med Lyxzén. (sv)
