BAND BIO
Horror of '59 first crawled out of their graves and onto the Cleveland music scene in September of 2004 with an aggressive yet melodic blend of punk, rockabilly, metal, and garage rock, a perfect match for the band's twisted tales of terror and titillation.
In October of 2005 the band released their debut album 'Screams From the Cellar' on Sonic Swirl Records with the line-up of Deke on drums, M. Balmer on guitar, Tommy Horror on bass, and Bob Noxious on vocals. Shortly after the album's release, M. Balmer left the band, Tommy switched to guitar, and Deke switched to bass. The new line up was completed with drummer Brent Bastard and begain playing shows in January of 2006.
Now as 2007 comes to a close, Horror of ‘59 is back with a brand new collection of cuts from the crypt with their second album 'The Golden Age of Sin'. It’s an album that expands their sound while remaining true to their bloody beginnings. The album is co-released through Cleveland-based Shark Attack! Records and My Mind's Eye Records and features eye catching cover art by renowned artist Mitch O’Connell. 'The Golden Age of Sin' begins now!
As another year of mayhem looms ahead, the band finds itself undergoing further mutations. Founding member Deke has decided to move on, but not before picking his own replacement in the person of Jimmy Dale Killmore aka Jimbo Hissem, formerly of The Slack Jawed Yokels and The Shrill. Finally, to add even more raw power to this musical monstrosity, the band has recruited second guitarist Tommy Roulette. There's nothing you can say, there's nothing you can do to make this nightmare go away.
