manicego Posted October 15, 2014 Report Share Posted October 15, 2014 Hey guys - I'm drawing a blank here ... Can someone throw some out some "street level glam punk type" bands that are CURRENTLY ACTIVE??? I'm talking D Generation / NY Loose and Backyard Babies / Dregen / Hardcore Superstar type acts (but would like to focus more on North America). I'm working on something and, well, if I can't think of anyone, obviously nothing will get done ... Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLPRocks Posted October 15, 2014 Report Share Posted October 15, 2014 Glam_Junkie is definitely the guy to help you out here.....he is really dialed in to that scene. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glam_junkie Posted October 15, 2014 Report Share Posted October 15, 2014 Cant think of many current North American bands of this genre, but there is: The Erotics https://www.facebook.com/theerotics Smash 77https://www.facebook.com/pages/Smash-77/144593672272077?fref=tsTattooed Millionaireshttps://www.facebook.com/tattooedmillionaires And from elsewhere: Sugar Sugaar (France) https://www.facebook.com/rocksugarsugaarThe Jet Boys (UK)https://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Jet-BoysThe Sweet Chainsawshttps://www.facebook.com/TheSweetChainsaws Honey Hellraisers (Sweden)https://www.facebook.com/honeyhellraiserofficialVietcong Pornsurfers (Sweden) https://www.facebook.com/VCPSbandThe Scams (Sweden)Bad Blood & Broken Bones (Australia)https://www.facebook.com/badbloodbrokenbonesDamian Cullen Band (finland) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martinsane Posted October 16, 2014 Report Share Posted October 16, 2014 Shame these kids are no more... They are/were great and would have been a perfect band for you Dave! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manicego Posted October 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2014 Good stuff all around guys. What I'm actually looking for are POPULAR (or once popular and still pulling crowds) bands in that vein. The obvious ones that I'm just not thinking of - Circus of Power (yeah, I know not glammy, but still ... the whole street thing), Little Caesar, that sort of thing but NEW. Chrome Division or Bullet might be two examples ... D Generation would be the perfect example of what I'm looking for - any others out there????

Fat Freddy Posted October 16, 2014 Report Share Posted October 16, 2014 "Vietcong Pornsurfers" = Best. Band name. EVER. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man I dug that band. What about Buckcherry? They just dropped a F@!k related EP? The D'Molls perhaps? They from the States? Spread Eagle? Get with Mike Hannon, American Dog, certainly time for a Salty Dog reunion. Saigon Kick is supposed to be doing something. Those examples might not be sleazy enough...

Not so much 'street glam punk' but these US bands have reasonable followings...

martinsane Posted October 17, 2014 Report Share Posted October 17, 2014 Station are awesome, but not very vintage, I mean, they are newbies... Dave, what say to LA Guns? They can still pull in a crowd and are together in 2 forms. What about Black Tora? They could pull in a crowd and are amazing. Might be a bit too metal though... Teaze still play around don't they? You know the band that became Roughhouse. Love/Hate? Dangerous Toys? Jetboy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinsane Posted October 17, 2014 Report Share Posted October 17, 2014 What about Junkyard? https://www.facebook.com/junkyardhollywood/info?ref=page_internal Show clip from earlier this year and they still sound about the same! Excellent! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manicego Posted October 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2014 Ta-da ... Terry hit the nail partly on the head, anyway. See, I wasn't thinking of ANY of those bands ... although I have albums from every single one. I was just blanking them all out. Now, to concentrate on the Hardcore Superstar / Dregen's of the world Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Freddy Posted October 18, 2014 Report Share Posted October 18, 2014 LA Guns? They can still pull in a crowd and are together in 2 forms. Not any more. Last I heard, Tracii Guns finally realized the futility of keeping "his" version of L.A. Guns going so right now the Phil Lewis fronted band is the only game in town (William Shatner voice: "But...for...how...LONG?") Love/Hate? Love/Hate are officially no more as of earlier this year. Jizzy Pearl was gonna release one final EP under the Love/Hate name but as he was the only original L/H member performing on it, he got into a hassle with Skid over the use of the name and he ended up releasing it as a solo joint (pun intended) instead. Warrior Soul? Kory Clarke is about release (or may have already released) a new solo album called "Payback's A Bitch." Not sure what the status of W.S. is as of now.

manicego Posted October 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2014 Tried to work with Kory a couple of years ago on some Warrior Soul dates. Let's just say his self worth is, ummm, inflated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too bad, but one could assume by his "presence" that he is/could be rather self important... or at least believe his own hype. Dave, you mentioned Lil Caesar and I looked 'em up again and it looks like they are still kicking around... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
