The press Photos take a bit of time to bring up the larger photos but they are worth it.

I've heard of them. This sounds like a throwback to 80's Metal. Kept half-expecting to see a lot of teased up hair and Twisted Sister t-shirts. They seem to be more of a visuals band as opposed to substance and would probably be fun to see in concert, much like Gwar. :D :devil:

I just saw that they won an award in europe. I saw the video over the weekend.

Lordi is kind of a GWAR knockoff, but actually very listenable. I've been meaning to pick up some of their music.

If you like the lyric style of Gwar and also want a great show - another band I'd recommend is Dead By Day. The keyboard vocalist is a halloween freek who also works as a SFX makeup artist (Ralis Khan). Very heavy death/goth/industrial metal sound.

WOW! I tried to respond but for some reason about 30 replies seemed to flood into the forum - so I deleted.
They do remind me of the 80's style metal Sin referred to but they look a lot like another band I like called Dead By Day. The keyboard/vocalist is a halloween enthusiast who also does SFX makeup work in films.
Check them out - www.deadbyday.com

I'd be very curious about that. I've never had any such response from that site.
It may be a preload in their site code but I'll take a look and inform them if there's a problem.
Thanks for the heads up!

I think there is a link on transbudda.com about the award that they got.

Gwar was the first thing that came to mind when I saw their pic.
