Guitar! Synth! Drums! Megaphone! ONE MAN BAND URBAN JUNIOR " TWOHEADED DEMON" on VOODOO RHYTHM RECORDS! RECORDED IN ONE TAKE…That's why this maniac sounds live like hes recordings!
Urban Junior started off as a jukebox hero. Name a song and he'll play it He released two longplayers on FF Records. "MUSIC FOR THE ASSES" and "E-B.O.M.B.", from wich he started to create his very own sound. A Clash of warm fuzzy guitarsounds and distorted synth basslines. Some folks called it Cyber-Blues, others Electrobilly. WELL, LET'S CALL IT SWISS-SPANKIN-ELECTRO-TRASH-GARAGE-BOOGIE-DISCO-BLUES-PUNK!
He played Guerillashows behind bars or on public toilets and on the other hand he was supporting acts for bands like Iggy and the Stooges, G. Love and Special Sauce, Test Icicles or the Monsters. Shows all over Europe were following including a small tour with John Schooley and Quit your Dayjob, Bondage Fairies, Reverend Beatman, King Automatic or The Masonics.
His new Album "TWOHEADED DEMON", 80s child URBAN JUNIOR easily combines BEASTIE BOYS early-days Garage Punk THE SONICS with the stoic sound of European New Wave Heroes like D.A.F. or GRAUZONE. The coverversion of KLEENEX's "Hedi's Head" (Rough Trade, 1978, the first Swiss Song ever played on a John Peel Session) is just a very nice example how comfortably Junior's sitting between the style.
