Hollywood Teasze (1999)
HOLLYWOOD TEASZE is incontestably the most famous glam band from Germany. They played many shows in their country, but also in Italy, Australia… and have many recordings (demo tapes, compilation cds, 2 cds, etc.) I wanted to know more about them, so I sent a few questions, and Chris (bass & vocals) answered. So, how Read more

Hardcore Superstar & Gemini 5, @ The Underworld, Camden, London, UK. 4/2/04
While Gemini 5 receive a rapturous reception, its occasionally necessary to pinch yourself during their set and check this isn’t the main act already. Offering a similar blend of Backyard Babies theme punk’n’roll and broken English banter to the headliners, the Swedish quartet are an enjoyable, if generic, starter. As energetic onstage as its possible Read more
