Makthaverskan are a Swedish post-punk band from Gothenburg, Sweden.

History

Makthaverskan began in 2008 with the release of both a mini CD with a collection of demos and their debut self-titled album, released by Luxury Records. According to vocalist Maja Milner, the name Makthaverskan has no real meaning. She stated that 'The band name just came from Hugo’s friend who made it up, and we thought it sounded cool, so we took it. The meaning is really hard to describe in English, but it’s the female form of someone with a lot of power. 'Makthavare,' is the male version, so 'makthaverskan' is the female version.' She also went on to state that, 'We didn’t have any background thoughts about meaning, but I think it describes Irma and me pretty well, since we both take charge and are powerful'. In 2011, the band released a single titled Antabus. Two years later, the band released both a 7' single titled Something More and their second full-length album, titled Makthaverskan II. In 2015, the band released a 7' single titled Witness.
