About Me

When Speedking were formed back in 1999, little did they know that a path of success lay ahead of them. By 2003 the results of this commitment began to appear as the first glimpses of original brilliance emerged. That summer, Speedking recorded their first demo EP; “Welcome To My Head”. This successful recording (now in its third pressing) is a symbol in itself of Speedking’s progression, from their musical inception on the local scene through to a breakthrough stint on US rock station Zeta 7, where the EP stayed in the top 5 of their request play list for 13 weeks. Achieving unexpected success as their music channelled all over the States, critical acclaim has quickly besieged the band – with Rock Sound magazine stating “riffs that Megadeth or early Metallica would have played if they had Layne Staley(Alice In Chains) singing for them”.Their success is rooted in the electric live shows, if you havent seen them, you've been missin out!
