TURN IT THE FUCK UP!

About Me

Having their foot firmly planted in the ass of the North Carolina music scene - while giving the finger to the world - Babyshaker slams glammed-up punk into loud, dirty rock that you can make love to. This veteran live act has toured with Jucifer, as well as shows with Iggy Pop, Kiss, The Toilet Boys, Blonde Redhead, Poison, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, The Make Up, Glass Candy, Fetchin Bones, Fu Manchu, and Antiseen to name a few. They have released one full - length, "The Best Of", and have been featured on several comps, including "Hard Candy And Sweet Brown Liquor" in the U.K., "Jesus Christ Surferstar" in Italy, and "Bomb threat" in the U.S. Recently the members of Babyshaker made an appearance in the film "Great World Of Sound" and contributed a song to the soundtrack of the underground horror film "Come Get Some". Up next is the soon-to-be-released, Don Dixon - produced second full-length that captures the spirit of their bombastic live shows. Get ready!Influenced by art, politics, fashion and a love of all music, Babyshaker careens through the rock underground - embraced by it's sub-genres but limited to none. Too punk to be metal, too metal to be punk. And, despite a penchant for style, too raw to be called glam. Their often- manic live show is as stimulating to the eyes as it is to the ears.Babyshaker is dirty, raw, smart,and downright sexy. -CMJ

Sounds Like: Trouble..."If you’ve seen them you know what to expect (Dudley’s loud, atmospheric, metallic guitar, Corrie’s snaky and sneaky bass lines, and Scott McCannell’s rock-solid drumming), but I like the way that every now and again they change up their live show so that they don’t become predictable. Singer Scott Weaver has become increasingly intense in his live performances and when he lets down his guard he really shines. Also, some of their recent shows have ended with Dudley and Scott McCannell tackling each other and wrestling around on the stage knocking over equipment. Tonight’s show ended this way. I’m sorry I only got one photo of the show-ending fracas but as I snapped away in vain I saw that my digital camera flashed back the dreaded “out of memory” message". - stillnotdead.comVideo: Identity Project by visual artist Klearcoat / Song: My Karate Is Good Tonight by Babyshaker
