The 2010 release "Blow it all Away" saw Dynamit leaning further into their hard rock influences, pairing punk energy with arena-ready production. It stands as a powerful statement from a band hitting its stride.
- "Blow it all Away" was recorded at Sunlight Studios in Stockholm with producer Tomas Skogsberg, known for his work with punk and metal acts. The album features guest vocals from Jello Biafra on the track "All the Same," a rare collaboration for the Dead Kennedys frontman. "Blow it all Away" reached number 47 on the Swedish album charts in its first week of release.
- The album's lead single, "The Great Escape," received moderate airplay on Swedish rock radio, contributing to the album's chart presence. The band supported the album with a European tour, playing over 50 dates in the latter half of 2010. Dynamit self-released the album on their own Åskskalla Recordings imprint.
- Despite a strong showing in their home country, "Blow it all Away" did not achieve significant international distribution. Critics at the time noted the album's shift towards a more melodic, albeit still aggressive, sound compared to their earlier, rawer material. The album's artwork, a minimalist depiction of a single explosion, was created by artist Kalle Anka.
Dynamit is a hard rock band from Sweden, known for their energetic live shows and punk-influenced sound. At the time of "Blow it all Away," they were three years removed from their previous album, "Rattlesnake," and looking to reassert their presence in the Scandinavian rock scene.
