Have You Heard The News?

Matt Voodoo, mastermind of Bamboula and for some time already 2nd guitarist in Mad Sin (and because of that living in Berlin) just published some demo recordings with his new project/band Killing Irie on the band's My Space site. Have a listen, it's not bad at all. They don't consider themselves a Psychobilly band but I guess you could label them 'Modern Psychobilly', probably because of the Slap-Bass. But anyway...go and decide for yourself. 

The Bullet Biters, Psychobilly trio from Finland, self-released a 4-track EP some weeks ago. It's called 'Intergalactic Mental Alert' and you should be able to get it via Crazy Love Mailorder. Support vinyl - buy the hot platter!

The Arkhams, outstanding new(sorta) Psychobilly band from New York City - actually they were THEE surprise at the Pineda Psychobilly Meeting 2009 - will be playing three Euro dates very soon. Original drummer Seanzi won't be hitting the skins due to passport trouble, for these dates he will be replaced by Liam Crill, drummer of one of the best bands now and then, here and on any other planet, the Kings Of Nuthin'. In time for the gigs the band's 2nd CD 'Valley Of The Arkhams', recorded about 2 years ago, should be available finally. See them tomorrow, September 3rd at the Wild at Heart, Berlin, on saturday the 4th at Subway to Peter, Chemnitz. East-Germany, and next weekend, friday the 10th at the Psych-O-Rama Festival in Helsinki, Finland!
