Straitjacket is a New Zealand band that was formed in Dunedin in 1986. The original lineup consisted of Shayne Carter on vocals and guitar, John Collie on drums, and David Wood on bass. Andrew Brough joined the band soon after as a vocalist and guitarist. In 1991, Brough left the group due to musical and personal differences. Mark Petersen then joined as a guitarist later that year. The band disbanded in 1994 but regrouped briefly in 2005 for a tour of New Zealand's main cities. Sadly, David Wood passed away suddenly in November 2010. In 2018, the later lineup reformed briefly and toured New Zealand alongside Carter's Dimmer.
Formed in Dunedin, New Zealand in 1986 by Shayne Carter (vocals/guitar), John Collie (drums), and David Wood (bass).
In 1991, Andrew Brough (vocals/guitar) left the group due to musical and personal differences between him and the rest of the band.

Straitjacket with Freddie Wadling on bass and vocals was one of the first punk bands in Sweden. The first gig took place at a motorcycle club and at a gig shortly afterwards, the band was offered money by the organizer to leave the stage prematurely. The band split in the summer of 1978 and the members continued in bands such as Liket lever, The Leather Nun and Blue for Two.

Straitjacket never had time to make an album, but we have searched in the members’ stashes and can more than 40 years later finally release the mythical Gothenburg punks on LP. The album consists of a collection of demos and a live recording from the last concert at the legendary club Errol’s in 1978.
