The Meteors – Kings of Psychobilly

Active ImageA five-disc career-spanning retrospective of the original "Kings of Psychobilly", THE METEORS. Lead by virtuoso guitarist and Psychobilly godfather P.Paul Fenech, THE METEORS have been going for near on 30 years. They have spawned generations of imitators, and indeed an entire genre, but still no one has ever bettered them. Not for the faint hearted, the songs are inspired by their personal experiences and interests; horror, perversion, and death.

This expansive collection picks all the highlights from their noteworthy career, right up to the most recent albums on People Like You Records. Sleeve notes include a huge interview with the man himself P.Paul, conducted by Psychobilly stalwart Steve Sommers. Detailed and insightful Fenech gives us the insider knowledge on the beginnings of what would become the legendary band, right up to the current line-up and what is in store for THE METEORS. This adds to the package's exclusivity, as Fenech is often a man of few words, letting the music speak for itself. THE METEORS still tour regularly, headlining festivals and selling out venues. The fan base is perhaps one of the most dedicated and loyal there is, whereas the music still appeals to a wide array of people. This is a marvellous package, which will be a must-have for anyone with the slightest interest in the Psychobilly Scene. Remember people – ONLY THE METEORS ARE PURE PSYCHOBILLY!
