“… This album won't leave lovers of quality rock unmoved. It is just so tight, intense, messy, expressive, powerful, explosive…”
AMONG THE VULTURES Review - Nyaskivor.se - Sweden.
THE KNOCKOUTS – AMONG THE VULTURES is something rare;
highly addictive songs that fuse rockabilly technique with the unstoppable force and heart of cocky punk rock, in a unique way that we've never heard before!
With faith in Punkrock since 1996. Johan Frandsen (lead vocals/guitar), Ted Jergelind (drums) and Ken Stone (upright bass) creates the missing link between the Stray cats and Green Day - incredible musicians, astonishing songwriting, good looks & extraordinary live performances!
The singer, guitarist & frontman Johan Frandsen, also played with world famous rockabilly band The GO GETTERS. His guitar playing gave them an extra injection of energy in over 300 gigs world wide. Head lining the well known Viva Las Vegas Rockabilly Weekender, playing with members of the Stray Cats, Guana Batz, Mad Sin and more, are just a few things worth mentioning.
Endorsement deals from Jam Music and Peerless Guitars sees a trademark white guitar appear on stage and during the summer of 2009 THE KNOCKOUTS have been on the festival bill with SOCIAL DISTORTION, THE LIVING END among others and have played sold-out shows all around Europe.
AMONG THE VULTURES, was recorded and produced in 6 days at The Panic Room, Skara, Sweden.
“… This album won't leave lovers of quality rock unmoved. It is just so tight, intense, messy, expressive, powerful, explosive…” Supporting THE LIVING END on their first Scandinavian Tour Date for the Raise the Alarm World Tour – in Stockholm Sweden. The band is screaming headlong into multiple high energy gigs with their 2009 – 2010 tour scheudle including Scandinavia, Europe and USA.
The KNOCKOUTS will be setting up the boxing ring and looking to see you soon. The rockabilly roots and cocky punkrock attitude just keep heating up into a slick, fat sound that will ensure these guys become massive.
Watch out, These boys play it HARD and play it LOUD: So prepare to be Knocked Out!
