About Me

The Wenzels - 55, 56 (Devil Don't Play No Tricks)

Add to My Profile | More VideosThe Wenzels have been making music since 1992 in all sorts of incarnations including industrial, electronica and for over 10 years alternative guitar driven rock. Just when you think you've heard it all The Wenzels come up with something completely different. Don't hastily judge this band or you won't have the full picture.The Wenzels have been compared to such greats as the flaming lips, weezer, depeche mode, cake, prince, lou reed and bowling for soup. You listen and you be the judge.The Wenzels got their big start in Okinawa Japan, but life has taken them on a wild ride all the way to the other side of the world where they landed in Germany. The band played in Kaiserslautern Germany for 4 years and performed live for the European and U.S. military crowds. The Wenzels currently reside in good old New Jersey, U.S.A. We hope to see you at one of our shows soon... MyGen Profile GeneratorThe Wenzels were also featured on the first ever tribute to weezer cd released worldwide. Yes, worldwide. Chris from the Wenzels verified this by walking into a random CD shop in Tokyo and picking it up with all japanese writing. It was pretty cool to say the least!
