Interview with
Anders Lundemark
(konkhra)
This month I like to release an interview with
former member of Danish thrash band Konkhra:
Mr. Anders Lundemark. I had the pleasure to
listen to their album “Weed out a week” in early
90es when Chris Kontos from Machine Head
joined this band with James Murphy. The album
was so great that a couples of years later I asked
Anders to sing in “Revenge” with my long time
band Merendine in Stockohlm, Sweden back in
2002 and he did it in that then will be our first
full length album “Walk Across fire”. So after
years I tried to pick him up again, but this time
to talk with him about Konkhr, the past and
future projects. Enjoy!
So many years since we last talked! How is it
going?
Pretty good, thank you, yes time flies...

Konkhra is the band you have played with in the
past 30 years. The 90s were a particularly great
time for the band. “Weed out the weak” came
out,
then
Konkhra
went through some changes,

the last album was released in 2009. Then long
pause… until now. Can you give us an idea of the
experience you had with this band? Great
memories as well as issues?
Yea, I had to deal with some health issues. I had
an apoplexia which I needed to recover from.
However, this new album has been ready for
some time now, there are songs which were
finished years ago, as well as some newer tunes,
that we finished last year. The band went back to
its roots, the lineup is all the old timers now, even
Martin is on the bass, which marks a return since
