As you’re probably quite aware by now, contrary Swedish punks Refused have reformed - and announced a summer’s worth of live appearances.
Last night, the band made their appearance at Coachella in California. The festival is live streaming all weekend via its YouTube page, and thanks to this, you can see the band in action.
Here are their performances of ‘Liberation Frequency’ and ‘New Noise’.
Refused play this year’s Download Festival in June.
