Onoff (retailer)
Onoff (originally named Telecall) was a Swedish retail chain selling consumer electronics and major appliances. Founded in 1971, and later expanding into Finland and Estonia, the Swedish parent business went bankrupt in 2011, with some stores being purchased by rival chain Expert.
However, as of June 2014 the group's former Estonian subsidiary continues operating under the Onoff name following a management buyout in 2011.
History
Early years
The business was started in 1971 by Hans Westin, who imported Japanese audio products, and in 1973 the company went full time. The first actual store was opened in 1976 in Åkersberga.
The Onoff name was established in 1982 when the company- then known as Telecall- bought up Sigges radio and changed its name to Onoff. In 1985, a head office was built in Upplands Väsby.
Expansion into Finland and Estonia
In 2001, Onoff established operations and shops in Finland and Estonia. In July 2011, Sweden had 67 Onoff stores and 7 in Estonia and Finland.
Onoff (band)
ONOFF are Rock Trio punk rock band from Dublin, Ireland.
ONOFF broke onto the Irish scene in 2002 with the release of their 'Hey Jack! You??re Late!' album, which reached number 7 in Irish Tower Chart. By then, ONOFF had already played sold out shows around Ireland prior to release which included shows in the Ambassador Theatre.
ONOFF's now infamous live performances; which included getting fans on stage, fire-breathing finales, and even arriving on stage in coffins, landed them support slots with their own idols such as Fall Out Boy, Bad Religion, Funeral For a Friend and Therapy, as well as a tour with ska-punk legends Reel Big Fish.
2007 saw the band write and record their new album, play 2 sold out Irish tours and a European tour with top Dutch punk band De Heideroosjes. This year will see the Irish release of the first single from this new album. The band have already been booked for a month-long European tour this March which will include some shows with Boston trad-punk band Dropkick Murphys.

A Tale Of Two Revolutions
by: Anah AeviaYour eyes reflect the fire that burns this city.
The tall buildings reach for the air above the smoke.
The sky will never clear.
A trumpet sounds the revolution.
The streets are crowded with the expressionless armies.
