The question is do we need another Glam Rock/Hair Metal band? With Motley Crue hanging up their leather jackets and calling it a day sometime in the near future is this the end as we know it? Of course not………..Steel Panther have given the general public a craving appetite for more. Poison are rumored to be reforming and touring in 2015. Gun N’ Roses, Areosmith, Skid Row, Cinderella, Def Leppard and many others still tread the boards entertaining the masses.
In Brighton, Beggarz Fixx are a band who formed in 2011 after being heavily influenced by the aforementioned bands. They are making quite a name for themselves with high energy performances around Brighton and in such prestigious venues in London such as O2 Academy Islington, Nambucca, the Camden Underworld and 229 The Venue. The band release their rip-roaring coke snorting 6 track EP “Rouse The Rabble” EP in Rocktober 2014.
The band bring the hair Metal genre kicking and screaming into the 21st century with some dirty, sleazy rip-roaring Slash-styled guitar riffs that really give you the feeling this band means business. The vocals are delivered with high-pitched power and perfect definition. Though their stylings are nothing new there is a good deal of energy and passion within these six tracks. That would give me confidence that if there is a hair Metal revolution in 2015, these guys would be part of it. With other bands like The Treatment from Cambridge and Saints Of Sin from Bournemouth, we could well have something of a revival on our hands.
