Hellcity Punks

Biography

Hellcity Punks is a fine combination of poplike melodies, thunderous and intensive riffs, punky attitude and wretched stories about life. Although fostering the legacy of performers like Kiss, Mötley Crüe and Alice Cooper The Punks still succeed to sound very 21st centurian.

In the beginning of 2007, little more than a year after his former band had split-up, Janze ran across Hooligan and Dennis while wandering the nightly streets of Helsinki. They soon noticed that they had very similar visions and goals and shared the passion for shameless rock n' roll. The triple joined forces and soon after that they heard rumours of this motorcycle driving maniac called Johnny and decided to recruit him into band. Hellcity Punks were born.

They spent over a year rehearsing, making songs and preparing their strategy in their own batcave. Hooligan and Janze responsible for composing as Dennis and Johnny adding their own fuel for the fire. Janze writes the texts for the music, which in Punks' case are equally as important as the music. It's hard to tell whats the place where Janze has been searching inspiration for his lyrics, but nowhere nice and cosy it ain't. And now, as we speak the time has come to begin revealing their secrets.

Their debut EP "Result In Disaster" (HELLCD001) has now seen the light of the day and with it's release. The Punks will also perform live across Finland.
