HELLBATS
Official Band Website: http://www.hellbats.com
Elibats....Vocals and Lead Guitars
Tom Toxic..Drums
Nick Elek..Slap & Bass
Pantus.....Guitars
Heavy, distorted and infectiously melodic guitar tones paired with frantic
upright bass slapping and scratchy, desperate vocals is one way to describe
the French psychobilly trio Hellbats. Moody, atmospheric and psychedelic; the
new Hellbats record Dark 'n' Meaty definitely lives up to its name. Thickly
layered metallic goodness rife with slasher film attitude, Hellbats know the
fundamentals of fantastic rock n' roll. Somewhere between an evil whisper and
a guttural growl, guitarist and vocalist Eli has been listening to more than
straight psychobilly for the last few years that's for sure. Double bassist
Nico keeps that psychobilly heartbeat intact with his relentless slapping as
Tom Toxic delivers driving beats that maintain the chaotic balance between noise
and harmony. Hellbats have indeed procured and secured their own sound within
the world of psychobilly, metal, horror and heavy rock n' roll. A rich sonic
experience that will leave the listener numb from being hit by three flying
Hellbats from the land of France where the naked ladies dance. CD booklet contains
full color 8 panel booklet with lyrics, comics and photos!!!
