Biografie
Psychopunch hail from Västerås,one of sweden´s major industrial towns.The band started back in 1998 with members from various Punk,Death Metal and Dirty Rock´n´roll bands.
With four albums on White Jazz Records/Sweden and 1 highly acclaimed album on the new label Silverdust Records/Germany,some split 7�,7� and split 10� released on various recordlabels in Europe and over a hundred gigs in
Scandinavia and Europe the band has with their Dirty, Raw,Loud,Full Power,Fast,Melodic,damned good drinking songs and a No Tomorrow attitude...... become a well known and respected band among the European rock crowd.
With their latest output "Kamikaze Love Reducer�, PSYCHOPUNCH once again show what this music is about, firing 10 shots of punk rock�n�roll straight into the brain - addiction is guaranteed, courtesy of those exceptional melodies and catchy choruses that are the band�s trademark. It seems to be unbelievably easy for PSYCHOPUNCH to deliver hit after hit, quickly captivating the unsuspecting listener.
The solid rhythm drone and the razor-sharp riffs as well as the charismatic vocals are the foundation for these unique punk rock hymns to be built upon, giving PSYCHOPUNCH a truly distinctive sound. The massive production delivered by the "wizard� producer Pelle Saether (early The Hives, No Fun At All, Carnal Forge, Puffball etc), gives "Kamikaze Love Reducer� a raw and dirty flair, rounding it off perfectly.
With their first two albums "We Are Just Welcome As Holy Water In Satan�s Drink� and "Bursting Out Of Chucky�s Town� ...and the 3rd half studio, half live album "Original Scandinavian Superdudes�, PSYCHOPUNCH already managed to amaze press and fans alike. You cannot draw away your attention from ear candies like "Down In Flames", "Straightjacket Hell", "Goin´ Crazy", "Who´s Fucking Who" and �Make Up Your Mind� etc. Raving reviews world wide were nothing but a logical.
"The Pleasure Kill� (2002) became an early high in the band�s career, cementing the band�s status and preparing the scenario for things to come. Sleazy rockers like "Back In The Days", "Inhale" or the unique "Apocalypso" have grown to become true classics of the punk rock scene. After further touring and appearances at major festivals like Wacken
(2003) and Summer Breeze (2003), PSYCHOPUNCH entered the legendary Sunlight studios again to lay down their highly acclaimed fifth album "Smashed On Arrival�(2004) on Silverdust Records. With songs like "Dying in your dream�, �All over now� and "Fingerlickin� good� the band once again proved that they are here to stay. So, after 5 albums, countless tours European wide and more festivals than you could think of, PSYCHOPUNCH are ready to strike again. Young and dynamic label SiLVERDUST records (END OF GREEN etc etc) which keeps climbing up the ladder of success, will release "Kamikaze Love Reducer� on January 20th 2006.
"Kamikaze Love Reducer� once again combines PSYCHOPUNCH´s trademarks: riffs with class, attitude and melodies you can´t escape. The band developed consequently and ended up in a varied record full of diverse moods and emotions. In
your face still, but the sophisticated way. The result surely deserves to be heard, with hit after hit pouring down on the listener.
"Kamikaze Love Reducer� is easily the band�s most ambitious and mature album so far, and it�s going to drive every punk rock´n´roll freak into a frenzy. With an album like "Kamikaze Love Reducer� up their sleeve and the label
SiLVERDUST covering their backs, PSYCHOPUNCH are definitely ready for the next attack!! So when you put this record "on the stereo", close your eyes and take a trip to the "poison alley groove" of Västerås (VST), Sweden.Not much more to say, except,there�s more where that came from!
