Demented Are Go

DEMENTED ARE GO | The legendary, crazy pervo-punkabilly band around front man Sparky is back
With a new album in their luggage, this psychobilly band with cult status is finally back in Stuttgart: Founded in the UK in the early 1980s, the band, who can certainly be described as "completely crazy" not only because of their name, belong to the first wave of the genre, which mixed punk rock with rockabilly and more than just a little bit of horror show. Their debut "In Sickness and In Health" must be considered an absolute classic and made it clear that they were clearly more influenced by punk rock than many of their peers, which is why their music is often referred to as "punkabilly" or "pervobilly" - the latter because their songs often feature psychopaths and perverts. Other trademarks are their unbridled live shows and the distinctive voice of their singer Mark "Sparky" Phillips, who sounds as if he has gargled with hot gravel. In general, this is a frontman as wild as a whole folk riot who has sold his soul to rock'n'roll!
