Backseat Villain

About Me



Dirty. Sexy. Rock. Three words that describe Backseat Villain the best.
Ever since the mid 90's when "rock" went out of style, there seems to have been this void missing from general mainstream music. When Nirvana finally killed the last few hair bands that remained, rock turned into grunge, and then turned into nu-metal. Not any more, kind of... Backseat Villain captures that hard rock element that has been gone for what seems to be forever. Sighting influences from but not limited to Guns N Roses, Motley Crüe, Buckcherry, Velvet Revolver and HIM to name a few, BSV rips and crushes. Just with a lot less hairspray.
