Psychobilly Forum ~ View topic - New Nekromantix album: 'What Happens In Hell, Stays In Hell'

Nekromantix news + a tour!

Revered psychobilly trio Nekromantix have emerged from the depths of isolation to unleash their latest sonic creation, a monstrous slab of demonic rock and roll entitled What Happens In Hell, Stays In Hell. This dangerously hypnotic album careens into stores on August 2, 2011 via Hellcat Records and includes thirteen songs of blistering death defying rock. In anticipation, the band will be offering special VIP Packages to their most dedicated fans on May 26th through the website below.

Led by charismatic rock and roll rebel Kim Nekroman and his legendary coffin bass, the Nekromantix have emerged as preeminent purveyors of a powerful and haunting psychobilly sound, an intoxicating mixture of surging anthemic punk and seductive reverb soaked rockabilly. The new record What Happens In Hell, Stays In Hell offers up frantic energetic romps like lead off track "Bats In My Pants," the riotous revelry moves along with the ominous anthem "Sleepwalker With A Gun," followed by a tribute to the immortal Hollywood horror legend with "Bela Lugosi's Star."

In support of the new album, Nekromantix will be loading up their hot-rod hearse to blaze across North America, igniting the festivities with a performance in the scorched desert landscape of Southern California on July 26th.

good news! it's been a (relatively) long time since their last album

Hmmmmm, wonder how many U.K dates they'll do?....hopefully they'll do more than just a one off in London for a change...Sheffield or Manchester would be good for the folks who live up past the midlands!.

They're playing in Los Angeles?! It's about time! Lol
I gotta to see them & I gotta listen to their new album!

Is there a single to go with this press release? I hate hearing about a new album without being able to listen to something Sad

Would be great to listen how the Nekromantix sounds now... i mean, it's been a while... last was better than the one before that, in my opinion... Cool

Let's see if our friend Kim comes and give us a shout about a new single... so, new Los Gatos Locos album and a new one from Nekromantix... 2011 looks great so far... Smile

Would be good if they did a few UK dates. Meteors packed out the Norwich Arts Centre, Nekromantix can too I reckon. I won't hold my breath though...

Looking forward to El Corazon on August 2nd. Heard the The Brains are going to be support on this tour, as well.

I fucked up the HTML! It's on the Nekromantix facebook page and myspace. If they still use they're myspace. The Brains are special guest however.
