Bio:
VELVET INSANE - 4 Piece Rock hailing from Ostersund, Sweden.It was the fall of 2013 when guitarrist Jesper Lindgren left his old band Pure Faith. He wanted to start a band that was going to be bigger than the world itself. Along with Jonas Eriksson and Jesper Sandström, Velvet Insane came to be. Since then, the band has both grown and shrinked. In the summer of 2014, the bass player Jesper Sandström left the band, and the pursuit for new band members made them contact Niklas Henriksson, bass, and Tobias Reimbertsson, drums. Which is the current constellation.Since then the pace has been furious for the Swedish stationed rock band. They played a few shows and put out their Debut EP "Youth On Fire" in October of 2014. It was well recieved and opened new doors for the band. In february of 2015 they set out on a tour in Australia which was very succesful. The band grew in popularity and the individuals grew as musicians as well. They composed new songs, worked on their image and put out their second EP in June of 2015, entitled "Break Out Of Eden".Future plans for the band are upcoming tours and the hunt for a record label to put out their first full lenght album. A new and fresh style of music with influences from 70s rock and 80's glam, Velvet Insane are trying to make it big with their special stage presence, strong vocals and cool guitar riffs.
Album:
A few years back Sweden unleashed their latest-coolest cultural export, VELVET INSANE, an outrageously named glam band so hopelessly devoted to their glitter pop idols that they essentially transcended any rip-off allegations and became their very own thing.To say they sound like Hanoi Rocks and Backyard Babies is so obvious that it’s completely besides the point. They’re basically the new version of both bands.Formed in 2013 by guitarist Jesper Lindgren and describe themselves as a three-piece gang of rockers that reinvented glam rock by mixing the pop harmonies of the 70s with the heavy sound of today.You can hear all that on their new album, “Rock ‘N’ Roll Glitter Suit” which title is pretty explicit.There have been changes in personnel and switches in record companies along the way but the band’s fortunes received a significant boost when they signed to a deal with Wild Kingdom/Sound Pollution earlier this year."Rock ‘N’ Roll Glitter Suit” is their ‘major’ exposure world-wide.All over the 11 songs there’s a massive attack of stack-heel strutting, full of delightfully cheese-ball boa-scarf anthems like ‘Backstreet Liberace’ (featuring Dregen from Backyard Babies and Nicke from Hellacopters), the ’80s power-poppy ‘Sailing On A Thunderstorm’, sex-bleating rave-up ‘Space Age DJ’, and the piano-plinking ‘Driving Down The Mountain’.You clearly know what you’re getting from this band, from the first early Kiss / Faces / Bolan-esque riff to the last tambourine shake and Slade-like verses.If you want something heavy, thousands of other bands can sort you out. But if you need something bright-eyed and breezy to soundtrack a quick trip to the beach, either real or imagined, this is as pure a dose of skinny-ass rock ‘n’ roll as any chill-seeker could wish for.
It’s about having a good time, all the time, and nothing else. And that’s alright by me.
