Liberator is a Swedish ska band formed in 1994 in Malmö. The ensemble initially performed as a cover band for Madness and The Beat before producing original compositions. The group released its debut album, This Is Liberator, in 1996, which featured the radio single “Ruder Than You”. Following the 1997 EP Carefully Blended, Daniel Mattison replaced guitarist Per Hedberg. The band released the albums Worldwide Delivery (1998) and Too Much of Everything (2000) through Burning Heart Records. After Erik Wesser, Peter Andersson, and Johan Holmberg departed, the group added Mattias Pedersen and Robert Engstrand. The ensemble released the compilation Soundchecks 95-00 in 2001, followed by Are You Liberated? in 2003. The 1997 formation resumed activity in 2006 for the Malmö festival. The band released the EP Ring the Alarm in 2008 and its final album, Stand and Deliver, in 2009. Liberator became inactive in 2009.
