Tattooed Millionaires * Sybilla * Sister Devastation
Tattooed Millionaires - (Hollywood, CA) "they’re not millionaires yet, but that may happen if the stars line up right. In the tattoo department, everything is already under control, as can be seen on the cover. Also the other important departments commonly used in glam rock, such as the looks, the lyrics & the tunes are perfectly in check.
Short album, short songs, but filled with so many hooks & choruses that this here boy is sure to be satisfied for the next couple of weeks. Check out top class songs as ‘Bad Boys & Astronauts’, ‘French Kissing’ & ‘Rock ‘N’ Roll Babies’ where apparent influences like The Rolling Stones, Iggy & The Stooges, Ziggy Stardust-era Bowie & MC5 are molded into great rocking songs.
Nice & quick ones can be a whole lotta fun, yes, ma’am, yes indeed..." - Rock Report
Sybilla -(Italy) Summer 2004: the band has been formed by Jan, who joined forces with ZAPs band-mates W.B. and Widius, alongside with keyboardist Njola and singer Alex. They almost immediately released a self-produced EP, Rock Aint Dead! that gained only positive reviews from the webzines and papers whom it has been sent to. Without a proper bassist, they were unable to promote it and, thus few gigs were played, soon Alex and Njola left SYBILLA for personal reasons. Summer 2005; flamboyant vocalist Dave and rockin bassist Frank joined in and the band began rising from the grave... While doing some concerts, they started penning songs for the album The Invisible Sandglass and they also took time for an appearance on the cult (at least in Italy) TV program Roxy Bar, hosted by Red Ronnie in June 2006. In October 2006 they released their full-length The Invisible Sandglass. Again, ONLY positive reviews from the press and a few concerts in Italy to promote the album. Meanwhile they appear on several radio, web and TV shows even winning a couple of band-contests. June 2007 marks a breakthru in SYBILLA's history: they finally sign a contract with american label Blastone Entertainment Group/BigBang Music. In late 2007 they start recording the follow up of "The Invisible Sandglass" and Rob*Star replaces Frank P.Wyatt in the band. They play their first gig with the new lineup at MOTOR SHOW in Bologna.In April/May 2008 they will tour the U.S. Southwest with L.A. Rockers Tattooed Millionaires, with a kick-off gig at the legendary venue WHISKY A GO GO in Los Angeles, Sunset Strip.Everything has been said&done...SYBILLA are New Millenium's way to ROCK!!! A deadly cocktail composed of: Catchy AOR choruses Great Heavy stuff Some Prog-ish and Dark-ish sounds Breath-taking Ballads Pounding Glam Rock tunes... ...This is SYBILLA!
Sister Devastation - (Houston, TX) - Formed in fall 2006, these underground jukeboxes have fortified an explosive songwriting partnership in the last year igniting a firestorm that will soon have your own backyard aflame.
These wastrels of dusk breed blood soaked musical notes with a palette of emotion and give birth to their own sound that also manages to evoke the spirit of the forgotten mascara ghosts of yesterdays.
Cutthroat Records to release Sister Devastation's debut record in 2008. Check back for more updates on the band.
