About Me |
|
Decadence has always been the cornerstone of rock n roll. From brazen attitudes to loud riffs, rock n roll has always been indulgent in lifes sinful pleasures. Naturally, it only makes sense for rock n rolls musical output to personify its ideals; enter BACKYARD BABIES. The ballsy and rockin' four-piece from Nssj, Sweden, preceded any recent rock revival when they formed back in 1989, before the Swedish invasion began to sink its teeth in with The Hives, The Hellacopters and the like. After releasing their debut EP in 1991, Something To Swallow and their 1994 full-length entitled Diesel And Power guitarist Dregen started to work with The Hellacopters as well. Upon recommencing in 1998, the BACKYARD BABIES released Total 13, 2001s Making Enemies Is Good and 2003s Stockholm Syndrome which epitomized what rock is all about, decadently delicious songs and the cockiest of attitudes. Making Enemies Is Good and Stockholm Syndrome both earned BACKYARD BABIES a Swedish Grammy and a personal nod from Velvet Revolver as well as AC/DC to open their European tours, thus cementing the bands reputation as a force to be reckoned with. After releasing last years compilation and live CD package, Tinnitus + Live Live In Paris BACKYARD BABIES again turned heads when they toured alongside Social Distortion in Europe and the U.S. Never resting on their laurels, the Babies have a new album brimming with confidence and their patented throwback rock flair. Produced by Nicke Andersson, guitarist from The Hellacopters, the new album, entitled People Like People Like People Like Us is a celebration of all that the Babies have been known for while giving listeners a few new sonic treats in the process. The band: Its more a dynamic album with a more modulated sound where Nicke Andersson taught us how to play together. But at the same time it was his restlessness that gave the album its honest and simple sound. We wrote more intensely and under a shorter period of time than ever before. A challenge that proved to be just positive since you dont have time to analyze everything to pieces. Known as real road dogs, BACKYARD BABIES will go on tour right after the album release in April. We have never been this anxious to hit the stages again, cause playin live is the only fuel this band needs to keep on being the counterweight in a fucked up business. Pleased to meet you... |
