Swedish Punk band Midlife Crisis have announced a partnership with Wild Kingdom Records to release all the work that Midlife Crisis recorded between 2004 and 2018 as a compilation album, appearing on CD, vinyl, and digital platforms, and titled 45 Turns 33. The single “Sick Of You” from the collection is out now.

The band started in 2004 as Maryslim-bassist Urrke T ‘ s “solo project” where he and three friends met to record some of his personal Punk favorites in a studio. This resulted in their first EP. All of the players were gathered from bands like, not only Maryslim, but also Backyard Babies, The Hellacopters, Crimson Shadows, and more, and they all shared a love for old school Punk Rock.

Over the next 14 years, they recorded and released three more vinyl EPs. By their third and fourth EPs, a few of Urrke’s original works were included, as well as a Swedish translation of the U.K. Subs classic “The Same Thing” (“Samma Sak”).

In 2024, and Urrke and Dregen met with Wild Kingdom Records at their headquarters in Stockholm and agreed to their current collection deal, resulting in the the compilation album.
