About Me


The CYCLONES
are two real brothers from the city presently known as
"The New New York."
Their latest EP, "We're Livin' Like Weasels!" is available NOW!
Buy the CD from CD BABY:
Now on ITunes too
(hey, it's an album, buy the whole thing, damnit.)

Buy the CD from ITunes:
Disoriented listeners reveal "tremendous volume," "baffling distortion" and "speed compensating for dubious technical abilities." Good signs, indeed. The CYCLONES are slated to grind into full CD support gear this Spring. Come hear their tremendous volume, baffling distortion and speed compensating for dubious technical abilities for yourself. And do it before live music in New York is history.
The CYCLONES are featured in PUNK Magazine,
and we want you to get a copy. So go here:
PUNK Magazine
Our article is penned by outlaw moto-journalist Bruise Lee who explains, better than we ever could, why The CYCLONES are currently on hiatus. At this juncture, we must point out that our new record, “We’re Livin’ Like Weasels!,” is available NOW, and we want you to buy it. And we’ll be back playing live soonishly.
From John Holmstrom, editor of the infamous scandal sheet: "This issue of PUNK features stories on New York City punk rock bands The Bullys, The CYCLONES, Turbo AC's, Peelander-Z, and Two Man Advantage. There's also a story about the reasons behind the closing of CBGB and a bunch of rare photographs of the Ramones from 1976-1978. There are also some funny comic strips by Robert Romagnoli, Ken Avidor, Rick Trembles, Avi Spivak and John Holmstrom as well as Bruce Carleton's Punk Rock Family Tree. Then there are the usual favorites: Reviews, advertisements, and filler. Just in case you keep track, the last regular issue of PUNK was numbered #17, the new issue is numbered #19. We hope to publish PUNK #18 in the near future. We're also planning brand-new issues of PUNK, including a special issue on the history of CBGB.”

The CYCLONES, "Pig," Directed by John Carlucci
and Brett Mason of Fingerprint.
Camera: John Carlucci.
Editor: Brett Mason.
Pig heads: John Carlucci.
The song is from our old, classic record,
"The Punk Rock Glitterati," but the video is new.
Shot on location -- literally on - the Cyclone, and in CBGB.
If you were in the audience for the shoot, you know
who you are, and thanks. Many can be recognized
in the crowd shots, though it's tough with jerked, fuzzy
YouTube video "quality." But more importantly, there
is a cameo by Jeff MAGNUM,
our great friend and Dead Boys' bassist.
RIP CBGB.

Influences: Ramones, Dead Boys, Dictators, Stooges, Testors, Heartbreakers, The CYCLONES. That's it. Nothing else.
