Randy is a Swedish punk rock band from Hortlax, Sweden, formed in 1992. While never achieving mainstream success, Randy have developed a cult following in the punk community over the years and were particularly successful in their homeland. They were particularly well-known for writing catchy songs with politically conscious messages, often broaching topics like income inequality, socialism, working-class revolutions throughout European history, and Karl Marx and Marxism.[1][2]

Randy were signed by Burning Heart Records, a sub-label of Epitaph Records, in the early 2000s. They have released six studio albums. The latest album, Randy the Band, was released in January 2006 on Burning Heart and Fat Wreck Chords.[3]
