Commit Suiside was a neo-Nazi band active in Gothenburg from 1983 to 1986, when Ulf was between the ages of 13 and 16. Other media outlets reported that Ekberg had been a neo-nazi skinhead. In 1998, some of his old songs were released on the compilation album Uffe was a Nazi!. Including songs like Rör inte vårt land (Don’t touch our land), Vit makt, svartskalleslakt! (White Power, black head slaughter) and a cover of Skrewdriver’s “Smash the IRA”, with the lyrics changed to refer to the VPK.
