About Me

------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------ The Bavarian Druglords were formed in 1668 by a man named Tira Hodanvi in a darker alley of old London via Stuttgart. They played shows surrounded by royalty, henchmen, warriors, and assassins. The summer of 1669 was impossibly theirs. All night parties filled with spies and artists led to them making the cover of King Magazine and a cover mounted hand drawn photo was circulated through much of London Town. Guitars were made out of steel and glass; amplifiers made out of leather and wood. They provided energy to the youth and an overhwhelming sense of sound and belief. The Bavarian Druglords would go on to become the biggest band known to humanity and word spread through ships and journeymen echoing the sound of the Druglords by singing it to new towns they landed in. Echoes as far as India and Alaska. An unprecedented word of mouth and glory in its most elegant and fortunate form. The Bavarian Druglords split up in 1874 after Tira Hodanvi was assasinated by a young girl who was not able to understand their sound. She snipered Tira Druglord from the rooftop, and left him to die slowly, in the rain, in almost the same alley the band was formed in.Their DEBUT "Goldsoul" EP is available from
