From dunkelheit they came, this Devilöck pact. Five guys, sharing a mutual passion for Manowar, Jägermeister (actually every beverage with a Heavy Metal Umlaut in it), bad jokes, young girls and having fun playing some Misfits classics. And since we're talking about classics, that means only songs from the Uncle Glen-era, right?
So, when guitarplayer Henry Roelens decided he wanted to perform at the yearly Classics Fest, which is held at the legendary Dynamo Club in Eindhoven (that is where THE festival once started), he asked some friends and before they knew it they were in a room with a couple of strangers trying to play some songs...
That Classics Fest-show was at November 3rd, 2007, and everybody expected Devilöck to call it quits by the time the show was finished. But in the end, offers came harder than Chasey Lain and a wellknown booking agency offered the guys a multi-euro contract, pretty cool for a bunch of guys with no masterplan or ambitions huh? Anyway, Devilöck accepted, signed the contract with blood and celebrated the fact with a delirious Jägermeister powerdrink session. Luckily these crimson ghosts have well-trained livers, because with amounts of booze like that (they talk about bathtubs themselves) a lot of people would end up crying like a baby, unable to make the last 5 feet to their beds.
In the meantime Henry Roelens, JW Stanley, Count Everest, Glendert Ranzig and Tom Auf Der Axe keep on playing, drinking and having fun. Maybe you can be a contestant at a Manowar Shot Game very soon...contact the band for more details!
